A recent report by Game File’s Stephen Totilo shed some new light on the cut “Restored Content DLC” for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 on Nintendo Switch. More importantly, it also revealed some shocking plans to apparently remake the sequel for modern hardware.
But amid all this, there’s a rather interesting revelation about the developer allegedly working on Knights of the Old Republic – Remake. Totilo notes that it’s Mad Head Games, known for Scars Above, which is working “under/with” Saber Interactive. The latter has yet to officially confirm if this is the case.
A quick look at Mad Head’s website indicates an “unannounced AAA game” based on a “famous and beloved IP that fans will eagerly anticipate.” It’s also “by far the biggest project we have ever developed” and will “generate some serious hype.”
Obviously, that descriptor could apply to any number of potential projects. However, combined with Totilo’s report and the fact that it’s working with Saber Interactive on another project, this could very well be the remake.
Regardless, we may not have to wait long to find out. Insider Kurakasis recently reported that there would be “big” Star Wars announcement soon, later alleging that its title ends with “The Old Republic.” Given the scale of the project and how beloved the IP is, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Knights of the Old Republic – Remake receive an update.
