PS5 Console Exclusive Star Wars Game Is Still Alive Allegedly

It’s been some time since we’ve received any substantial news about the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake, a game initially announced to be exclusive on the PlayStation 5 console, with Sony potentially taking on the role as publisher.

Initially unveiled in 2021, this game has experienced a challenging production journey. The initial developers, Aspyr, were removed from the project, and control was subsequently passed on to Saber Interactive.

Reports then followed that the game was dead, which were quickly quashed, and then almost a year ago, Saber Interactive’s CEO Matthew Karch reassured fans the project was “alive and well”.

Currently, there’s an unusual piece of news from GameFile, where the executive mentioned that the ongoing project is indeed progressing, albeit he remains tight-lipped about additional details.

Further to that, COO Tim Willits said on social media: “Saber Interactive is one of the largest independent developers in the world. We are working on numerous games across many different genres. Everything that we have talked about is still in development. We will share information on upcoming games when we have something cool to share.”

KOTOR would certainly be a game that it’s talked about in the past, therefore must still be in development.

It appears that Sony has removed the game’s title from its social media accounts, which leads me to believe they may no longer be involved with the project at this stage. They stated the reason was a music licensing issue, but we are doubtful that it would still be exclusive to their console if it were to resurface in the future.
