Schreier: Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic Remake in The Works at Aspyr Media

According to well-known gaming journalist Jason Schreier, the rumored Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic Remake is real and it's existence handled by Aspyr Media.

Earlier this year we reported on some rumors challenge that both the original Knights of the One-time Commonwealth (KOTOR) and its sequel are beingness re-released on modern consoles afterwards this year. Shortly after that, some other rumor suggested that a new Stars Wars: Knights of the Old Democracy is indeed in the works outside of EA. Reputable insider Shinobi 602 afterward added that hat the studio working on the new entry is not a household name.

Fast forward a few months and we at present accept Schreier saying that the new Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic entry is indeed happening. The studio working on information technology? According to Schreier, porting specialist Aspyr Media – the studio responsible for the recent Star Wars Jedi Knight and Episode 1 racer panel ports, only besides the Knights of the Sometime Republic ports for Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android devices.

Schreier said equally much during a recent interview with Ben Hanson from the MinnMax show.

Whether nosotros're looking at a total remake or merely a re-release on modernistic platforms isn't entirely certain, merely Schreier did seemingly ostend a remake during the interview. On the other paw, Aspyr Media has mainly been porting titles to other platforms. With Aspyr having worked on the ports of sometime Star Wars games for modern platforms, a re-release of KOTOR would make more than sense.

Nosotros'll update once nosotros learn more nearly this matter. For now, stay tuned.

The original Star Wars: Knights of the Sometime Republic was released for the get-go Xbox back in 2003 with a PC version releasing before long after the Xbox version. The Mac version, handled by Aspyr, was released in 2004.
