There are few Star Wars game stories more cursed than the Knights of the Old Republic remake. Announced back in 2021 with the kind of trailer that instantly sent half the fandom into nostalgia overdrive, the project then spent years drifting into that awkward “technically still exists, probably, maybe, please do not ask follow-up questions” zone. So naturally, the latest update is exactly the sort of update this game would get: Saber Interactive’s Tim Willits has now confirmed that the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake is still in development. And that is, apparently, all he can say. The quote is brutally short. According to multiple reports covering Willits’ remarks to IGN, the update was simply: “Yes, it is still in development.

Star Wars Games (2019–Present): The End of Exclusivity and the Multi-Publisher Era
If 2012–2018 was defined by centralization, then 2019–present is defined by reopening the gates. Following the consolidation of the EA Exclusive Era — and the controversy, cancellations, and corporate recalibration that defined it — the years after 2019 represent a structural shift back toward diversification. The change did not happen overnight. It began quietly. In November 2019, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order launched. At the time, it looked like a strong single-player title within the existing EA framework. In hindsight, it marked the beginning of something larger. By January 2021, Disney and Lucasfilm formally ended EA’s practical exclusivity. The “Lucasfilm Games” brand returned publicly. New publishers entered the field. Studios outside EA began developing major Star Wars titles for the first time in nearly a decade. For the first time since the early 2000s, the Star Wars gaming landscape widened again. This era is not defined by one publisher. It…

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.
