The original game from BioWare allowed you to shape your own journey in the galaxy as one of nine different customizable characters, with plenty of choice and freedom. With only a brief teaser revealed so far, we don't yet have a release date, and a recent report from Bloomberg (opens in new tab) claimed the project has been delayed indefinitely. The remake is coming from Aspyr and Lucasfilm Games, the former of which has previously worked on several remasters of previous Star Wars games, including Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast. First revealed during the PlayStation 2021 Showcase, we got our very first look at a revamped Darth Raven who was a customizable protagonist in the original game. The Knights of the Old Republic remake is set to deliver a new version of the much-loved RPG from 2003 to PS5 and PC. Very little has been revealed about the project so far, so the release date is still likely to be a ways off. The new studio is being led by veteran developer Greg Foertsch, who previously worked at Firaxis on Sid Meisner's Civilization series – among others.

Respawn will be producing the project, while Bit Reactor leads its development. Revealed alongside the first-person shooter, the untitled Star Wars strategy game is currently being developed through a 'production collaboration' with freshly established studio Bit Reactor. If an FPS and another step in the Star Wars Jedi series wasn't enough, Respawn kept the surprises coming with the announcement of a Star Wars strategy game. Still, given that Jedi: Survivor is current-gen, it does seem like a safe bet to assume we'll see this new experience land on the latest consoles. At the time of the announcement, work had only 'just begun' on the title, so it'll likely be some time before we get a solid release date or learn more details about the game. Hirschmann is no stranger to the Star Wars franchise in the gaming space, having previous experience working on the original Star Wars Battlefront games, as well as Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Respawn game director Peter Hirschmann is leading the development of the project, which was first revealed in January 2022. As well as continuing on the Star Wars Jedi series with Survivor, Respawn is also currently working on as yet untitled Star Wars first-person shooter.
