The Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake announced last year has been delayed indefinitely.
As Jason Schreier reported, the project’s delay comes after the abrupt dismissal of its lead art director and design director.
The developer responsible for the Remake, Aspyr Media, has indicated the delay allows the team to determine what comes next for the game.
Additionally, the company has noted that while the Remake is on hold, it will look for new contracts and development opportunities.
On 30 June, Aspyr Media presented a working demo of the Remake to Lucasfilm Ltd. LLC and Sony Group Corp.; however, despite feeling confident in the demo, the reception was poor – indicating they weren’t where they wanted it to be.
The remake project will reportedly be moved to Aspyr’s parent company, Saber Interactive.
The KoTOR Remake was expected to release at the end of 2022, but given the delay and apparent issues, the game could be years away.
