Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic Remake Seems Distant – GameTopic
🌟Attention all Star Wars and gaming enthusiasts! The long-anticipated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) remake seems to be facing a bumpy road ahead. Hold on to your lightsabers and join me as we delve into the latest updates and speculations surrounding this highly-anticipated game!
Embracer CEO Hints at a Long Wait ⏳
Embracer Group, the parent company of Saber Interactive, recently announced that Saber had split from the company in a whopping deal worth up to $500 million. However, amidst this announcement, Embracer made it clear that it is still involved in publishing several Saber games, including “a previously announced AAA game based on a major license” – which is widely believed to be the KOTOR remake.
During a subsequent financial call, Embracer CEO Lars Wingefors was asked whether this highly-anticipated game would be launching within the next 12 months. According to reports from VGC, Wingefors’ response seemed to suggest that we still have a long way to go. “No, I think that kind of game needs some deep love and respect,” he said, hinting that it will be quite some time before the KOTOR remake sees the light of day.
The question that lingers, however, is who exactly is in charge of the KOTOR remake? Embracer or Saber? Wingefors remained tight-lipped on the matter, leaving us eager fans craving more information. Even Saber’s Chief Creative Officer, Tim Willits, added to the confusion when he failed to mention the KOTOR remake in a recent tweet about other projects in development by Saber.
