A trusted leaker has confirmed that the title of an upcoming major Star Wars announcement will end with the words “The Old Republic.” This information has fueled rumors that the long-standing silence surrounding the highly anticipated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake could be broken at The Game Awards.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Could Be Coming

The Knights of the Old Republic remake was announced in 2021. However, due to studio changes and uncertainties surrounding the development process, only whispers and unofficial rumors have surfaced regarding the project since then. Developer Saber Interactive continues to confirm that the project is still ongoing, further supporting the possibility that the remake could be poised for a major announcement.

However, some fans are wary that the announcement is strictly about the KOTOR Remake. Some players have pointed out that BioWare’s successful massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMO) Star Wars: The Old Republic also fits the bill.

Given that developer Broadsword is constantly releasing new content for the MMO, there’s also speculation that the announcement could be related to a new expansion pack or a console adaptation of the 2011 game. However, the extent to which an MMO port announcement on The Game Awards is considered major news has been debated.

Another theory has emerged regarding the Total War Star Wars title, which has long been rumored to be in development by Creative Assembly. It’s been suggested that this strategy game, though neither the title nor the time period has yet been officially announced, will also be set during The Old Republic, and that its title could end with this phrase.

The only point challenging this theory is the absence of such a significant project at Total War’s recent 25th Anniversary event. All this information creates considerable uncertainty and excitement regarding the Star Wars announcement at The Game Awards. Based on this leaked information, KOTOR Remake’s first official appearance since 2021 will be a major event for series fans.
