BOB the Podcast came with the information that a new game from the Star Wars series: Knights of the Old Republic is in development. The title is said to be made outside of Electronic Arts and BioWare studio. Until recently, EA had exclusivity for Star Wars space games. In addition, according to the same source, there should be another with a mercenary hunter (perhaps something like Star Wars: Bounty Hunter or Star Wars 1313) and something smaller in EA.
The sequel to Knights of the Old Republic has also been suggested earlier by respected journalist Jason Schreier, saying that we would not have guessed the name of the studio working on it. The trusted insider shinobi602 has also confirmed that the speculated game is in development.
In the past, it has even been speculated that a film could be made based on the Knights of the Old Republic.
Cinelinx magazine wrote last year about the brand’s return, albeit very vaguely. At the time, he speculated on the basis of his own resources that it could be a remake, continuation or reimagination of the original story. In the past, it has even been speculated that a film could be made based on the Knights of the Old Republic.
At the Star Wars Celebration in April 2019, President Kathleen Kennedy indicated that we can look forward to such a reworking of the Knights of the Old Republic story. “We are still talking about it and yes, we have already started preparations for something specific. But I still have no idea where we could put it, and at the same time we have to be careful that the cadence of the Star Wars universe films is not too high, “said Kennedy when asked how she responds to the huge demand for the filming of the popular RPG.
Knights are no longer a canon
But we must not forget one more important fact. Although there have been a few allusions and references to the Knights of the Old Republic in other Star Wars in recent years, their saga is unfortunately no longer a canon, so it would make more sense if Lucasfilm Games tried to transform the brand to fit current history. . After Disney bought Lucasfilm, he pushed the so-called Expanded Universe, in which games also belonged to the canon, to the sidelines.
The first episode of Knights of the Old Republic debuted in 2003 and was responsible for the BioWare studio. The sequel with the subtitle The Sith Lords was taken care of by the Obsidian Entertainment team and came on the market in December 2004. The successful single games were followed by the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic from 2011.
