Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic – A Galactic Adventure Beyond the Horizon!
The force is strong with this one! Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic rocked The Game Awards stage, sending tremors through the galaxy far, far away and into the hearts of gaming fans everywhere! Social media buzzed with rumors of a 2030 release date, but hold onto your lightsabers — creator Casey Hudson is here to reassure us the excitement is coming sooner!
Set in the legendary Old Republic era, this ‘spiritual successor’ to the beloved Knights of the Old Republic is crafting its legacy at the newly-minted Arcanaut Studios in Edmonton. Even without a hint of gameplay, the stylish CG trailer left fans craving more.
So, where did the 2030 gossip originate? Thanks to a speculative comment from journalist Jason Schreier, chaos ensued online, igniting theories of a decade-long wait. Hudson quickly quelled the flames with a tweet that fired up anticipation: “Game will be out before then. I’m not getting any younger!” He teased.
Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic is in its early stages, destined for our hands at the latest by 2029. Hudson will be wielding the Force to build his studio and deliver a top-tier AAA game that meets the high expectations of Star Wars fans everywhere. With LucasFilm Games joining forces, the hype is unmatched!
Prepare to embark on a “narrative-driven single-player action RPG” experience. You’ll step into the boots of a Force user dancing on the edge of destiny, grappling with choices that steer you toward the light or darkness! With a fresh narrative and new characters, it’s reminiscent of KOTOR, yet blazing a trail all its own.
In a heartfelt message, Hudson expressed gratitude to the KOTOR fanbase, saying, “I’m grateful to have enjoyed the support of KOTOR fans for many years, and I look forward to embarking upon this journey together.” Adventure awaits, and we’re excited to ride along every parsec of the way!
While some speculate whether this epic saga will skip the current console generation, only time will tell if we'll see it on the PlayStation 6, the next-gen Xbox, and PC. The countdown has started!
