The much-anticipated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KotOR) Remake was first introduced to the public in September 2021. Since then, the project has been shrouded in mystery, with only vague rumors hinting at its progress. Unfortunately, recent developments suggest that fans might be facing disappointing news rather than the eagerly awaited release. Alex Smith, the former head of Bend Studio and a key figure behind the iconic Syphon Filter series, has shared concerning updates about the project's status.
On his X account, Smith revealed that the development of the SW: KotOR Remake has been completely halted. This claim contradicts statements made by Saber Interactive in 2024, which insisted that the project was still in development. According to Smith, some team members have been reassigned to other projects, while others have faced layoffs. If these revelations hold true, it would be a devastating blow to fans who have been eagerly awaiting a modern take on the classic RPG.
It's important to consider Smith's track record when evaluating his claims. He has previously provided accurate insider information, such as hinting at an upcoming announcement from Housemarque, which indeed came to fruition. However, his predictions regarding the release dates of Death Stranding 2 and Ghost of Yotei were off the mark, suggesting that his statements should be approached with a degree of caution.
As of now, official representatives from both Saber Interactive and Aspyr have not commented on Smith's revelations, leaving fans in a state of uncertainty about the future of the SW: KotOR Remake. Until more information is forthcoming, the gaming community remains hopeful yet apprehensive about the fate of this beloved project.
