What will happen in Star Wars Celebration 2022?
Star Wars KOTOR Remake release date
Publisher Lucasfilm Games has heralded many new Star Wars games in the near future. In fact, it was announced that the creators of the Uncharted series were working for the last announced production. Therefore, many new Star Wars games will come in the coming years. Therefore, we estimate that the KOTOR Remake release date will not be until 2023. Probably this summer, the release date information about the game will be announced and Star Wars Remake will be available at the end of the year at the latest.
Star Wars KOTOR Remake story
The story of KOTOR takes place over 4,000 years before the rise of the Galactic Empire, when Darth Malak, a Dark Lord of the Sith, deploys a Sith armada against the Galactic Republic. The player’s Jedi character must travel to several planets across the galaxy in order to defeat Malak. Players select from three character classes (Scout, Soldier, or Scoundrel) and modify their characters at the start of the game. It’s a round-based battle against foes where players compete against each other. Light and dark side points are earned by interacting with other characters and making plot decisions, and the alignment system will determine whether the player’s character aligns with the light or dark side of the Force.
Star Wars KOTOR Remake system requirements
KOTOR Remake’s official system requirements are not known yet. The original KOTOR game was released in 2003. Currently, it is very difficult to find a PC system that cannot run the first KOTOR. In the last 20 years, the game world has come a long way in terms of both graphics and gameplay. Obviously, the KOTOR Remake project will not be easy for producer Aspyr. Because they cannot release the game with a minor makeover, as Rockstar Games did in Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition. KOTOR Remake has to be rebuilt visually and with some gameplay dynamics. Still, we think KOTOR Remake will need at most as many system requirements as the average PC can run today.
KOTOR Remake minimum system requirements (estimated):
OS: Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit versions)
CPU: Intel Core i5-2400/AMD FX-8320 or better
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB or better
RAM: 8 GB of RAM
What Star Wars games are coming?
Star Wars Eclipse
The Star Wars Eclipse game was announced at The Game Awards 2021 with a breathtaking reveal trailer, and it will be the first in the High Republic period, which is a time of prosperity for the Galactic Republic decades prior to The Phantom Menace.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2
After the first game’s acclaim, Cal Kestis’ saga as a young Jedi will continue. The game’s release date has not been announced yet, but it is expected to be released at the end of the year or at the beginning of 2023.
Star Wars FPS and strategy games
There is also a Star Wars themed FPS and a strategy game ordered to Respawn Games. Especially the strategy game is expected with great interest. Because the names at the beginning of the project took part in the XCom series before. If we look at it from this perspective, we can say that a turn-based strategy game is waiting for us. But maybe it will be RTS.
The Star Wars project from Ubisoft
Details about the Star Wars project developed by Ubisoft are also not shared. If we consider the Star Wars themed FPS prepared by Respawn and EA, we can guess that Ubisoft is perhaps making a TPS like the Ghost Recon series.
The Star Wars project from Skydance Interactive
At Skydance New Media, Amy Hennig announced the development of a new Star Wars game. Hennig is best recognized for her contributions to the first three Uncharted games as creative director and writer, but she was previously attached to a separate Star Wars project at Visceral Games before the studio was shut down by Electronic Arts. While the game’s specifics are still under wraps, it is expected to be a narrative-driven, linear experience with Hennig’s background.
