Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic revealed, from Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect director Casey Hudson
Return of the Jedi.
A new Star Wars single-player RPG has been revealed, and it's a spiritual successor to BioWare's Knights of the Old Republic.
Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic comes fom Arcanaut Studios and Casey Hudson, who was director of BioWare's Star Wars game and Mass Effect. It's set to be "an epic interactive adventure across a galaxy on the brink of rebirth where every decision shapes your path towards light or darkness".
A teaser trailer was shown tonight at The Game Awards, focusing on a female Force user.
"When we developed the original KOTOR, we wanted to create a definitive Star Wars experience - crafting an adventure that consisted of all the things we dreamed of doing as Star Wars fans," said Hudson.
"Now, 25 years after we started work on that game, our aspirations are equally ambitious. Fate of the Old Republic represents an opportunity to explore a contemporary vision of a definitive Star Wars experience, using state-of-the-art technology and game design, and an all-new story crafted specifically to deliver on the combination of player agency and immersion in Star Wars that was at the heart of KOTOR."
It won't be a sequel or continuation of KOTOR, then, but will be following in its footsteps.
The game is in early development for PC and consoles, so there's no release date just yet.
