The much-anticipated SW: KotOR Remake project was first introduced to the public back in September 2021. Since then, the gaming community has been buzzing with speculation and rumors about its progress. However, recent developments suggest that fans might be facing some disheartening news. Alex Smith, the former head of Bend Studio and a key figure behind the iconic Syphon Filter series, has shared concerning updates on his X account.
Smith revealed that the development of the SW: KotOR Remake has been entirely stopped, contradicting Saber Interactive's earlier 2024 statement that the project was still in progress. He further disclosed that some team members have been shifted to other projects, while others have unfortunately been laid off. Should these claims hold true, it would mark a devastating end for fans eagerly awaiting the revival of this beloved RPG.
It's important to consider Smith's track record when evaluating his statements. He has a history of providing accurate insider information, such as his hint about an upcoming announcement from Housemarque, which indeed came to fruition. However, his predictions about the release dates for Death Stranding 2 and Ghost of Yotei were off the mark, suggesting that his insights should be approached with a degree of caution.
As of now, neither Saber Interactive nor Aspyr have issued any official statements regarding these developments, leaving the future of the SW: KotOR Remake shrouded in uncertainty. Fans remain hopeful for clarity and a positive resolution, but for the moment, they are left in suspense.
