Any Star Wars news excites fans of the saga beyond measure, particularly if it relates to the much-loved video game Knight of the Old Republic, for which a highly anticipated remake is in the works.
The game originally was released in 2003, and no less than three console generations have come and gone, so the news of a remake had filled fans’ hearts with hope.
However, issues with the title’s development had left a bitter taste in the mouths of those who had been waiting for it spasmodically, and it seemed even destined for a permanent postponement.

However, some days ago, plans were reinforced by developers Aspyr Media, thus the title seemed close to release, by the end of 2022 or early 2023 at the latest.
But again, one insider ruined the hopes of fans of the saga born from the mind of George Lucas. In fact, Schreier reported in a tweet that the game will not be released this year at all.

Then to give a definitive ( and more accurate than any Empire soldier) shot of phaser to hopeful gamers, he added in another tweet that the game’s release in 2024 is only a “blissful hope”.
Even 2024 is wishful thinking unless they pare down the scope of the project

So, the game should come out at least in 2025, if not beyond, the insider says. We shall see.
