The KOTOR Remake might be re-revealed later this year

A few days ago, we learned through a Saber Interactive executive that the long-awaited KOTOR Remake is targeting a 2028 release window. Now, a new report claims that the game could potentially land a little earlier than that, and we may see our first glimpse of the remake before the end of this year.

Star Wars fan channel, 100% Star Wars, claims in their latest video that they've heard from Saber developers that the KOTOR Remake was looking to hit a 2027 release to line up with the 50th Anniversary of the Star Wars franchise – something that Lucas Film has big plans for. However, with 2028 being the 25th Anniversary year for the original Knights of the Old Republic, they are also comfortable slipping into that year instead.

The video claims that development has been going “extremely well” and if things continue going on track, then there should be a re-reveal of the game later this year.

The Knights of the Old Republic Remake was first announced back in 2021 with a teaser trailer briefly showing Revan, the main character of the KOTOR story. At that time, the game was being made by Aspyr, but the project was later rebooted under Saber Interactive, who have been quietly working away on the game for the past several years.

KitGuru Says: Hopefully this all ends up being true. It has been a long time since we've seen anything official regarding the KOTOR Remake, so a re-reveal later this year would be a hugely significant moment. However, I would have thought that Disney would have wanted to host the re-reveal themselves at a Star Wars Celebration event, rather than something like Gamescom ONL or The Game Awards.
