After all, while the original KOTOR is beloved, its combat system might feel pretty archaic now, compared to modern updates of the same top-down RPG controls from games like Divinity 2 and Baldur's Gate 3. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake: GameplayĪ big question mark that does hang over the remake is exactly how much it'll change gameplay-wise. It's a brilliant story that takes in diverse locations and some iconic characters, from Jedi masters to murderous robot helpers, so trust us when we say it'll be one to experience when it comes out. In true RPG style, though, those who want to use the Dark Side can feel free to do so - you can choose to lean into the Sith's ideology if you like. Revan has been defeated, leaving Malak in his place sweeping through the galaxy, and it's up to your player-customised character to fight back against the tide of evil along with the few Jedi who are around to help. As fans will know, where there's one Sith there's always another - in this case, it's the twin evils of Darth Malak and Revan. However, the setup for the remake is obviously likely to be the same, so we can rely on that for some basics.įirstly, that titular Old Republic is literally 4,000 years before the events of the main Star Wars films, those that make up the Skywalker Saga - it's a long, long time ago, truly. If you've never played the original KOTOR, don't worry - we won't spoil that game's marvellous story. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake: Story However, we also know that the game will release on PC, so it's not like the PS5 will be the only place you can play it. Of course, that might mean it's a timed exclusive rather than permanent, but at least at launch it'll be a filip for PS5 fans.
The single biggest bit of news about the game so far, and by far, is that it will be a console exclusive for Sony - the KOTOR remake is only coming to PlayStation 5, and not to Xbox. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake: Platforms Hopefully we might get the remake in 2023, though. Compared to other announcements during the event, we think that means even a 2022 release date looks a remote possibility at this stage.
It's only a short teaser trailer, though, and sadly doesn't end with any sort of a timeline for when we can expect the game. The above trailer debuted during a Sony showcase live-stream looking at the future of the PlayStation 5 in September 2021, and it provoked an absolute rush of enthusiasm, not least because it opened the entire show.
