Hasbro has officially revealed a new Star Wars: The Black Series Gaming Greats Darth Nihilus & Darth Traya 2-Pack, and for Knights of the Old Republic II fans, this is the kind of merch drop that lands somewhere between “very cool” and “my shelf is in danger.” The set is an Amazon exclusive, and it is already up for preorder. If you want to grab it early, you can preorder it here on Amazon. What makes this release stand out is that this is not just another lazy repack with a fancy box. According to Gizmodo’s reveal coverage, Darth Traya is getting her first-ever action figure, and Hasbro seems to have actually leaned into what makes her memorable. She comes with three purple lightsabers plus translucent display stands to recreate that wonderfully unhinged floating saber style from KOTOR II. That is exactly the sort of dramatic Sith nonsense this figure…

A Full KOTOR II Remake Is Reportedly in the Works — What It Could Mean for Fans
Long revered as one of the deepest, most morally complex entries in the Star Wars gaming saga, KOTOR II has endured decades of admiration — and frustration. The original release was powerful, but also famously unfinished, with cut content and an ending many players felt was abrupt. But new reports suggest that might finally change. A full remake of KOTOR II, with “modern gameplay” and an improved ending, is reportedly — or at least was recently — on the roadmap. Here’s what you should know — and what you should still treat as hopeful speculation. 🔎 The Rumor: What’s in the New KOTOR II Plan In short: the plan was ambitious. Fully modern.

On This Day in Star Wars History: KOTOR II – The Sith Lords Released in 2004
Some anniversaries hit harder than others, and this one lands like a perfectly timed Force lightning strike:Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords released on this day back in 2004. Yes.Two.Thousand.Four. If you suddenly feel the aging effects of a thousand years in stasis like Revan in a kolto tank… same. But let’s talk about why KOTOR II still matters — not just as a classic RPG, but as one of the boldest (and darkest) stories ever told in Star Wars video games. The Sequel That Refused to Play It Safe Following the genre-defining success of KOTOR, developer Obsidian Entertainment took on the enormous challenge of crafting a follow-up — but instead of repeating the same formula, they decided to swing for the philosophical fences.

Knights of the Old Republic II: Restore Atton Dialog – The Lost Astronavigation System
Some mods are about cosmetics, some are about mechanics, and then there are mods that give you that sweet, sweet lost content. The “Restore Atton Dialog about the Astronavigation System” mod for Knights of the Old Republic II fits neatly into the third category. If you’re like me and love peeling back the layers of a game to discover hidden gems, then this mod is practically the Holy Grail. What Is the Atton Dialog Restoration Mod? First things first: what exactly does this mod do? When KOTOR II was first released, a lot of content was left on the cutting room floor. Among the things left out was a piece of dialogue between Atton and the Exile about the astronavigation system. This mod brings that back—fully voiced, fully scripted, and fully immersive. It’s like finding a secret stash of credits under the floorboards of the Ebon Hawk. Who knew? The…
