The Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake is still in development and currently targeting a 2028 release window, Saber Interactive's chief business officer confirmed. For a project that has spent years in the rumor mill's equivalent of deep freeze, a calendar year feels less like a release target and more like a rescue mission.
The update from the studio's executive officer addresses long-standing fears that the title had been quietly shelved. Since its initial announcement, the project has suffered from extensive development woes and studio transitions, leaving fans to wonder if the remake would ever surface or if it had been lost to the corporate void.
The details
The confirmation of a 2028 window provides a concrete target for a project previously defined entirely by uncertainty. While a multi-year wait remains, the update establishes that the remake survived its behind-the-scenes transitions, shifting the conversation from whether the game still exists to when it will arrive.
