Saber confirms KOTOR Remake is ‘still in development’

It has been years since the Knights of the Old Republic Remake was first announced. Unfortunately, we haven't had any official news since, but Saber has reassured fans this week that the game is “still in development.

The KOTOR Remake was first announced for PS5 and PC in 2021. Initially, the game was being developed by Aspyr, the same studio responsible for handling modern KOTOR ports and a number of other Star Wars remasters. Somewhere along the way, the project ended up moving over to Saber Interactive and development started over again.

In a recent interview with IGN, Saber CCO, Tim Willits, said that the remake is “still in development” but they couldn't say much more at this time.

LucasFilm reportedly wants remakes of both of the original KOTOR games and may eventually want to make a third game as it looks to re-introduce the Old Republic timeline to fans. Aside from KOTOR Remake projects, original KOTOR director, Casey Hudson, formed a new studio last year to work on a ‘spiritual successor', titled ‘Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic' – and that game should be out within the next four years.

KitGuru Says: Fans have been waiting a long time for an Old Republic return. We don't know when we'll finally get the KOTOR Remake, but there are multiple projects in the works to look forward to.
