Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is, to this day, one of the best RPGs you’ll ever play, and appropriately enough, it has been made available on a large number of platforms and devices with multiple ports over the years. A lot of those ports have been handled by Aspyr Media, who’ve now brought the game over to the Nintendo Switch as well, filling out a notable gap in the game’s list of platforms.

The game, originally developed by BioWare in 2003 for the original Xbox, is out now for the Nintendo Switch. Priced at $14.99, it will require about 12 GB of free storage space on your system. Set long, long before the events of the Star Wars movies (though no longer part of the canon, sadly), Knights of the Old Republic is a game that Star Wars fans shouldn’t be missing out on, so this is the perfect chance to jump in if you’ve never experienced this classic.

Of course, Aspyr is busy with more than just ports- the developer is also working on a ground-up remake of KOTOR, which will be a PS5 console exclusive at launch, and will also be bringing back several voice actors from the original (including Jennifer Hale will also be returning as Bastila Shan).
