Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake coming to PS5

Genius Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake is a new version of the RPG classic, coming from Lucasfilm Games and Aspyr.

The brand-new title was officially announced at the PlayStation Showcase 2021 event, with a concise teaser prevue featuring narration from someone who sounds much the likes of deuteragonist Bastila Shan. She warns of a powerful Sith lord, and we soon see our first look at ace of the remake's characters: Darth Revan who - pillager warning for the original story from 2003 - is also your customizable protagonist.

"Heartsease is a lie down. That is what the Sith believe," the voice narrates. "They promise power. Directly, they exert it. We face the superior Sith in generations. They must be stopped-up."

The uncover of the remaking lines up with rumors that previously circulated of Aspyr's future visualize being a full-on KOTOR remake. The studio apartment has previously worked on remasters for a range of Headliner Wars games, including Star Wars: Episode 1 - Automobile driver and Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, but the fact that this game is specifically being beaked as a remake rather than a remaster implies it Crataegus laevigata be more of an extensive update than Aspyr's previous act.

We'll retributive have to wait and realize - aside from that quick teaser of Revan looking for menacing as e'er, the trailer doesn't throw us much to work on for today. Knights of the Old Republic is still unrivalled of the best Star Wars games ever successful, so Aspyr sure has a important task ahead of it either way.
