It should first be noted that what follows is pure speculation based on what limited amount of information there is about the original game’s release, the various changes since then, EA’s current Star Wars exclusivity contract, and Disney/Lucasfilm Games’ involvement in the franchise.
RELATED: EA Won't Announce Any New Star Wars Games Until 2022 No matter how one looks at it, though, the earliest fans should expect an announcement is next year. However, the complexity of a Knights of the Old Republic remake is further complicated by the sheer variety of business and political dealings surrounding the game. Of course, development is no easy task, and if the reports are true, fans will hopefully see the results of their patience one day. Reportedly, a proper Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is in development at Aspyr, but nowhere has that been confirmed. It’s something fans have been begging for on the same level as Mass Effect until the Legendary Edition released, but the silence around the supposed KOTOR project since then has been concerning. Without a doubt, the reports earlier this year indicating that Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was getting remade blew the minds of fans everywhere.
