Saber Interactive confirms its Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake 'is still in development'

• The Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake is still in development
• Saber Interactive's chief creative officer, Tim Willits, has confirmed the project is still in the works
• He says, "Yes, it is still in development. That's all I can say"

It's been a while since we've heard any updates about Saber Interactive's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake, but the developer has now confirmed that the game is still in the works.

When asked by IGN about the future of the project in a recent interview, Saber's chief creative officer, Tim Willits, said simply, "Yes, it is still in development. That's all I can say."

Willits didn't offer any more details about the remake, but at least we know it's not canceled!

The original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was developed by Dragon Age and Mass Effect studio BioWare. The modern remake was announced back in 2021, so it's been almost five years since the reveal trailer that gave everyone goosebumps.

Willits also commented on the game's status in March 2025, saying at the time that it was "working on numerous games across many different genres" and that "everything that we have talked about is still in development."

According to a Game File report from December 2025, it was confirmed that Aspyr was no longer leading the remake's development, and the project had been moved into the hands of Mad Head Games, the studio behind Hellraiser: Revival.

The same report also claimed that there are plans for a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2, too.

In other news, A new Star Wars game set during the Old Republic era is now in development at Arcnaut Studios and will be helmed by Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect trilogy director Casey Hudson.

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic was announced at The Game Awards 2025 with a gorgeous teaser trailer, and Hudson has confirmed that it will be a narrative-driven single-player action role-playing game (RPG) where you step into the role of a Force user.
