After years of uncertainty, Saber Interactive’s Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic remake is “alive and well,” according to the company’s CEO.

In an interview withIGN, Saber Interactive CEO Matthew Karch gives the briefest update on the mysterious title. After confirming that the studio kept hold of Knights of the Old Republic, even after parent companyEmbracer Group sold Saber in a $500 million dealearlier this year, Karch says the game is still in active development.

There’s still a lot to learn about the KOTOR remake, and it’s hard to predict exactly when we’ll hear more about it. The only thing we have to go off of isthe teaser trailerwe got almost four years ago - which hassince been removedfrom PlayStation and other officialYouTubechannels due to an expired music license. At least we now know that Knights of the Old Republic is on the way soon.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training.  My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I’m also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
