Old Republic Game Tease Rekindles Hype as Filings Expose KOTOR II ‘Juliet’ Plans and Studio Shift

Newly surfaced depositions detail a planned KOTOR II remake alongside a move of the primary remake to Mad Head Games.

Overview

  • A reputable leaker, Kurakasis, says a “big” Star Wars game with a title that “ends with The Old Republic” will be announced soon, explicitly excluding Eclipse and Zero Company.
  • Outlets note the timing points to The Game Awards on December 11 as a likely reveal window, though no publisher or Lucasfilm Games confirmation has been made.
  • Legal documents reported by Game File show Lucasfilm Games discussed a full Star Wars: KOTOR II remake, codenamed “Juliet,” with modern art and gameplay and plans to rebuild restored content.
  • The same filings indicate the long-quiet KOTOR remake has shifted to Mad Head Games and remains on the roadmap, aligning with earlier assurances that development continues.
  • Court records tied to the canceled Switch DLC confirm Disney’s legal concerns over proper crediting derailed official use of the TSLRCM fan mod, and reporting suggests “Juliet” was paused by March 2025.
