The highly anticipated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake, first teased in September 2021, has been shrouded in mystery ever since. Recent reports suggest that instead of a launch, fans may face disappointing news. This comes from Alex Smith, former head of Bend Studio and a key figure in the Syphon Filter series.
Smith's X post claims development on the SW: KotOR Remake has completely stopped, contradicting Saber Interactive's 2024 statement that development continued. He alleges some team members were reassigned, while others were let go. If true, this would be devastating for fans eagerly awaiting this iconic RPG remake.
It's important to note Smith's history of accurate insider information—he correctly predicted a Housemarque game announcement. However, his past predictions regarding Death Stranding 2 and Ghost of Tsushima release dates were inaccurate, so his claims should be viewed with caution.
As of yet, Saber Interactive and Aspyr have not officially responded to these claims, leaving the future of the KotOR Remake uncertain.
