I’d personally love to see an Empire at War sequel, but you can look at what LucasArts is doing for a clue as to what it may or may not go for in terms of a pitch. With the floodgates groaning open we should see a wave of new projects. They get to be as they believe themselves to be: peacekeepers, wandering knights helping those in need and protecting the weak from those who would prey on them. They’re not trying to confront the evils of the Sith, they’ve not been co-opted into being military leaders in a major conflict. This is also a time for exploring the Jedi during their ideological prime. This is Lucasfilm presenting the Star Wars universe through a more contemporary lens, with governments adapting to social and economic upheaval rather than trying to survive a state of total war. There’s a crisis, but it takes the form of a natural disaster (in space).
This is a time for exploring the Jedi at their ideological prime What if, instead of pining for something that may never come to pass, we imagine Disney makes a game from one of its most exciting contributions to the Star Wars canon? What if we get Knights of the High Republic? I believe the dream of a ‘true’ Knights of the Old Republic sequel – whether that’s KOTOR 3 or something else using the same setting – is probably still dead, or at least on ice pending reception of the remake. This feels like we’re on the cusp of a new golden age of Star Wars, and the long-awaited return of this beloved series.īut when I stop to reflect, I think I would have preferred we move on from KOTOR. I had my doubts it was a ‘new’ KOTOR game, but neither was I expecting a full-blown remake of BioWare’s classic either. We’d also heard that something KOTOR related was in the works at Aspyr. EA has confirmed it’s still making Star Wars games, and we know a Ubisoft Massive open-world game is in the works too. Ever since Disney announced the revival of LucasArts via Lucasfilm Games earlier this year, rumours and speculation have been circulating over which new Star Wars games we’re going to see. So, it looks like we’re getting a KOTOR remake.
