Star Wars game on the Nintendo Switch

One of the best Star Wars games ever made is making its way to Switch. In addition to the news that Respawn Entertainment will release Star Wars Jedi: Survivor in 2023, Disney announced yesterday that 2004’s Aspyr Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords is porting to Nintendo’s handheld. Additionally, the studio said it plans to release a “Restored Content” DLC for the game. That’s good news for what’s often considered one of the franchise’s diamonds in the rough.

Many Star Wars fans like Knights of the Old Republic II for its more complicated portrayal of the conflict between the Jedi and the Sith. Unfortunately, the game was delivered unfinished, in part due to the fact that developer Obsidian Entertainment, best known for his work on Fallout: New Vegas, had 14 to 16 months to complete work on the project.

Playable

Obsidian was forced to delete the content, including an entire playable planet. This to meet the deadline set by publisher LucasArts. After the studio moved on to other projects, a group of fans began work on The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod for PC, promising to bring the final version of the game as close to Obsidian’s original vision as possible.

However, you can play the game on the Nintendo Switch on June 8th. The studio is also working on a PS5 remake of the original game.
