Embracer CEO refuses to discuss status of Star Wars: KoToR remake
Nov 17, 2023 4:10 PMThe anticipated remake of the classic RPG Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KotOR) has hit a snag, as Embracer Group CEO Lars Wingefors refuses to comment on its current development status. The KotOR remake, initially announced in 2021 for the PlayStation 5, has been facing rumors of a troubled production process. Renowned industry journalist Jason Schreier suggested that the development might even be on hold.
Embracer Group's recent quarterly financial presentation provided no clarity on the project, with Wingefors declining to speak on the matter to avoid further news speculation. The lack of updates, coupled with Sony's removal of the game's announcement tweet and trailer, has raised concerns about the state of this highly-anticipated title among Star Wars and RPG fans alike. The gaming community continues to eagerly await official news on the progress of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake for PlayStation 5.

Hearing about the KotOR remake hitting a snag is like a disturbance in the Force for fans who've been hyped since the announcement. It's like we're stuck in a suspenseful cutscene waiting for the next playable moment, hopeful yet hanging on the edge of our seats for some positive news to break the silence.

Sounds like the Force isn't strong with the KotOR remake's development cycle, and fans might need a little Jedi patience until Embracer Group feels chatty. With the project shrouded in more mystery than the Sith, here's to hoping this beloved classic isn't heading for an Order 66 situation. 🎮✨

It's always a bummer to hear about hiccups in the development of long-awaited titles like KotOR; this kind of radio silence can really stir up the rumor mill. Here's hoping the Force is still strong with this one, and we'll see it back on track sooner rather than later for the sake of RPG and Star Wars enthusiasts.
