minus-squareJarmer@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up22·9 months agoWe knew this was happening a long time ago though. This is probably just Sony making it “official” in an unofficial way. This project has been dead for ages since the dev team was pulled off it long ago.
minus-squarehamsterkill@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up10·9 months agoIt was given to another team, but obviously radio silence ever since. Part of me is wondering if the success of Baldur’s Gate has impacted the approach to it at all, given it falls roughly in the same genre space. Embracer’s financials probably impacting it more, though.
minus-squareazerial@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 months agoIt was definitely an EA call. They’ve been talking about kotor 3 for years internally. The devs want it, but you gotta keep up that stock price…:-\
minus-squarehamsterkill@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoEA/Bioware had nothing to do with this remake. It was in development at Aspyr at first, followed by Saber Interactive — both owned by Embracer Group. This was/is? a remake of KOTOR 1, not a KOTOR 3 which has never been announced.
