KOTOR 3 May be in Pipeline, but Not From BioWare
Reportedly, work is already underway on a new installment of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic. A studio not associated with Electronic Arts is responsible for the game.
- The next instalment of KOTOR is to be developed by an unknown studio;
- Bespin Bulletin is responsible for the leak, and the information was confirmed by Jason Schreier;
- The rumor should be approached with considerable caution.
According to a tipster who runs the Bespin Bulletin website, work is underway on the next installment of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Leaker commented on this subject during the BOB the Podcast broadcast. He claims, the game will be developed by a studio not associated with the Electronic Arts family.
Unfortunately, the informant does not know who exactly is working on the new KOTOR. He only stated that the news would come as a big surprise to many. It's possible that it's about a more obscure studio or team, which so far has been associated with a different genre of games. This development was also confirmed by Jason Schreier.
The whole thing fits perfectly into the situation that we have been observing for about a year. During this time, Lucasfilm Games has granted a license to develop Star Wars games to many companies (including Ubisoft and Quantic Dream). The same is true about the remake of the first KOTOR, for which Aspyr Media is responsible. Electronic Arts commented on this fact and clearly distanced itself from the upcoming production.
However, you should remember to approach the above information with caution. Bespin Bulletin reported only that the game is being made, and other informants allegedly are of the same opinion. Probably referred to the statement of Jason Schreier, which dates back to 2020 and could refer to the later announced remake, rather than a new installment of the series. At the same time, the informant openly admitted that he also does not know what studio is to be associated with the project.
Credibility of Bespin Bulletin
Bespin Bulletin is a website created by a leaker, who has a track record of many accurate leaks. The informer provided, among others, news regarding The Rise of Skywalker. He also accurately predicted the appearance of as many as five elements in the movie's trailer.
