Electronic Arts’ fan-favourite Star Wars RPG series, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, is reportedly getting a reboot.
According to a new report from Cinelix (thanks, GamesRadar+), two individual sources familiar with Disney’s plans have each confirmed a KOTOR game is in the works, but there’s some disagreement on whether it will be a simple reboot or a “sequel of sorts”. Either way, it’s thought the game will “integrate elements from the first two games in order to bring certain things into the current Star Wars canon”.
While rumours of a KOTOR reboot are floated fairly often, the source site Cinelix did accurately leak news of an upcoming Obi-Wan TV show last year, which makes the rumour all the more plausible.
