Overview
- A screenshot attributed to Saber chief business officer Steve Allison surfaced Thursday on Reddit and was reported by multiple outlets, quoting him saying the studio’s lineup is “forming for 2028” and listing “hopefully KOTOR remake.”
- Saber Interactive has publicly confirmed the remake is in development, with CEO Matthew Karch saying the project was active in 2024 and reporting has named Mad Head Games, a Saber studio, as the team making the game.
- The Reddit screenshot has not been authenticated and neither Saber nor Lucasfilm have officially confirmed a 2028 window, so the year should be treated as speculative until an announcement is made.
- A 2028 release would be plausible on development-time grounds because Saber took over the project after Aspyr, but the remake’s history includes Lucasfilm rejecting Aspyr’s early work and the project has had prolonged delays.
- Fans should watch for formal word from Saber or Lucasfilm, a first gameplay reveal likely at a major showcase, and any publisher or platform confirmation since reports of PS5 and PC availability remain limited and unverified.
