Star Wars is a kind of universes which are excellent for video video games. And, after all, there have been various nice ones. However solely a handful had been pretty much as good because the Knights of the Outdated Republic titles, and it seems we’re about to get extra of them.
On Dec. 3, respected leaker Kurakasis mentioned a “huge” Star Wars recreation was about to get introduced, most definitely indicating a worldwide premier on The Recreation Awards. On the time nobody knew what this huge recreation might be, however Kurakasis adopted up yesterday, Dec. 6, by saying the sport’s title “ends with ‘The Outdated Republic.’”
That is large information. No matter it seems to be, it’s a return to one among Star Wars‘ most profitable and most iconic subfranchises, one which spawned revolutionary singleplayer RPGs and an important MMO that’s nonetheless operational.
Some followers are involved it’s simply extra information concerning the Knights of the Outdated Republic remake that’s been suspended in limbo for years now, however I reckon that wouldn’t be an “announcement,” provided that we already received one and comprehend it’s coming.
It is also a 3rd Knights of the Outdated Republic recreation, constructing on the hype surrounding Wizards of the Coast’s RPGs, generated largely by the immense success of Baldur’s Gate 3. KOTOR itself retains a big fanbase to at the present time, with many contemplating it one among Bioware’s greatest sequence, coming from an period the place Bioware nonetheless made nice video games.
Thus, there’s a whole lot of potential to creating a recreation set in The Outdated Republic, particularly if its a part of the established KOTOR sequence. After all, it might become nothing particular and perhaps tied to present merchandise, however I’m nonetheless hoping for one thing of be aware.
