A remaster of the venerable Star Wars RPG Knights Of The Old Republic is in the works, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier revealed earlier this week.

Schreier broke the news during a guest appearance on the MinnMax podcast (via Eurogamer), where he confirmed that Aspyr is developing a KOTOR remake. The studio has ported KOTOR to iOS in the past, and recently ported older Star Wars games like Republic Commando, Episode 1 Racer, and the Jedi Knight series to Switch.

But while Aspyr has primarily focused on ports and small modernizations, Schreier suggests that this could be a full remake. Whether this means simply upscaling assets or going all out with new models, textures, and shaders remains to be seen.

Rumors of a KOTOR revival have been around for some time; EA was believed to have authorized the production of a sequel last year that would bring the previous two games into line with the current canonical history.

Andy K. recently revisited KOTOR in the wake of the second season of The Mandalorian and found a refresh from the franchise, which is currently haunted by its own mythology. in 2018, Lucasfilm announced that a promising fan-made Unreal Engine 4 KOTOR reboot closed.
