Casey Hudson Reveals 'Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic' at The Game Awards

Billed as a KOTOR spiritual successor, the single-player action RPG emphasizes light-or-dark choice, remaining early in development for PC and consoles.

Overview

  • Arcanaut Studios is developing the title in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, with original KOTOR director Casey Hudson serving as game director.
  • StarWars.com clarifies the project is not a direct sequel or continuation of BioWare’s Knights of the Old Republic.
  • A cinematic teaser shows a ship landing on a remote snowy world, a Force-using protagonist with companions, and an HK-like droid near an Old Republic capital ship.
  • No release window was announced; current messaging lists PC and consoles, with teaser footage presented as cinematic content captured in Unreal Engine 5.
  • Coverage positions this as a distinct, original Old Republic-era project separate from reported KOTOR remake efforts.
