The sadder thing is that even though the project is dead in the water, its highly unlikely they'd ever let that old KOTOR 1 remake fan project be revived after using legal force to get it shut down, so in a way they've deprived us of two chances of a KOTOR remake, not just one. And frankly speaking I'd have much preferred the fan remake over the official one since the official one sounds like it'd be quite unfaithful to the original. .... anyway, thanks for being honest Mr 100%. I appreciate that you try to get accurate information rather than just jump on whatever idiotic popular hype train is choo-chooing through the social media cesspools like all those other disingenuous influencers and trashy fake journalists.

[@elsarules2870]

I appreciate your forwardness and honesty. It is missing from a lot of people who report news, and those false or misleading headlines can really affect one's perceptions of what is actually happening. So, I very much appreciate you cutting through all the BS and giving us the facts. People are smart enough to figure out their opinions from there, I would hope, and I for one will maintain hope that the game is in development until the company gives us other information to indicate otherwise.

[@AdeptKing]

I'm sorry you're catching flak for this. If the Kotor remake does come out then I hope they don't mess it up. If it did get canceled then well at least they're not going to have the chance to mess it up.

I've played KOTOR and KOTOR II (My personal favorite since Kreia is basically my mental mentor) for probably over a hundred times in total and with thousands of hours just on the OG xbox. This news is.. strangely heartbreaking and somewhat comforting if true. Given the horrible state of play for remakes, remasters and especially for those of high esteem.. for this to be shelved for the time being and if they should ever pick this back up then it should set the premise AND idea for it to be made correctly from the start.

[@Slimo74]

I knew it from the day Sony first rejected Aspyr's preview. This kind of project requires faith ! Give the license back to Chris Avellone and let the story continue.

[@Slimo74]

Maybe the problem is more global, with Disney LucasArts themselves. What do you think of the controversy with South Park ? This company seems to be run by dickheads. No wonder they chose the wrong people to make the game.

This is nothing but a WIN/WIN situation. The original game is still intact and demands to be played even now. The remake now has no chance of disrespecting the original, even if on nothing more than technical changes. I advise the people saddened by this news to do one thing: PLAY KOTOR! Revan needs you. I work with the assumption of course that the KOTOR remake is dead because frankly I think it should be, sue me.

[@andrewbaker8521]

Completely agree, the original is still a great game and the remake would have butchered it. Im glad its dead

[@xoulmannn]

A remake would be cool because them 2000s graphics don't do the lore, era, and atmosphere justice.

[@stevequincy388]

Yeah, when they hired writers like Sam Maggs and talked about changing the combat in the re-make, I became very nervous. Thankfully, KOTOR can now remain untouched by "modern gaming." A graphical update would be nice, but nothing else.

[@rossgonzalez696]

I want this to happen so bad. I remember seeing the trailer and I literally screamed out loud when seeing Revan ignite his saber. I've been hoping for a remake for so long, there's a reason I've been going back to KOTOR for 15+ years. It's so sad seeing this game not being pushed enough.

[@SpectorSpider]

I don’t get why people are giving you so much shit on Twitter over coverage on this game. I don’t think this podcaster guy has a source on the game being canceled, really it’s think just “have no leaks so it’s dead.” You’re doing great work man, keep it up.

[@aarons.2323]

Jeff Grubb has been right about a lot of things in the past. He has a lot of valid sources when it comes to things. Does it mean he's right here? Of course not. If he has an insider at Embracer, that doesn't mean that person is correct either. It just means HE'S being fed incorrect information as well. We'll just wait and see. Or we won't see anything and the game will never come out. I think the project is too big to let it go quietly though. I think there would be an actual announcement if it was truly OFFICIALLY cancelled.

On the bright side is that the next attempt may not be published by Playstation anymore so it could be on as many platforms it can That and Playstation won't be watering down the RPG aspect of KOTOR anymore.

I do wonder if “paused indefinitely” might be a thing with this. Theres clearly licensing issues with sony having to remove their announcement trailer. But given Sony’s vision for the game, the removal of all the devs from the original game that joined aspyr JUST to make this. I honestly dont know if i even want to see this ‘remake’ any more. For me it needs to totally faithful to the original, especially when it comes to the storytelling method. Id much rather have no kotor than a bastardisation of genuinely a top 5 of all time game.

You mean nobody writers that want their postmodern deconstruction of KOTOR to still be made and think that a video game company who can't lose 500 billion a year like current Hollywood will take that loss? This game is dead unless Disney makes their own studio. Disney is currently HEMMORAGING money and facing a possible hostile takeover by Nelson Peltz. Welcome to reality. Disney is about to lose 200-300 million on The Marvels post marketing/theatre cut and and that doesn't include money they steal from ESPN/ABC to market their own product, when they could market someone elses.

Hopefully you can inform us sometime soon and maybe the remake will be apart of it. Keep up the good work and don't worry about the other people trying to attack you, they just have misplaced anger.

I have watched a lot of your videos about KOTOR 2 and it has made me look at that game in a different light than I had when I played it the first few years when it came out.

Here is my perspective on this.... The interim report may still list the project if they have a couple producers working on planning/negotiations related to the project. It is entirely possible (and perhaps even likely) that the report from Jeff Grubb is accurate, but that Embracer may turn around and assign it to some new studio at some point in the future (hence leaving it on the interim report). Jeff has very well established contacts internally at basically all the publishers...

[@mikev8746]

Yeah I wondered that myself. I mean it seems like they might be waiting for a studio to get freed up and take things over. Saber right now is handeling Space Marine 2 which seems to be one of their only tangible games that has real guarantees behind it of being released as a proper AAA game. Maybe after that they get the project who knows.

[@tHeWasTeDYouTh]

Do you guys want a KOTOR remake that is a third person action game that is missing all the amazing RPG mechanics that the old games had? I rather have no game that a souless and horrible KOTOR remake. I guess we will never know until assets are leaked to Unseen64 in a couple of years.

The copium is strong with this one. How blind and ignorant do you have to be to take a company's word as fact 100% of the time? Have we not learned from places like BioWare or Activision that they might say one thing when it is something completely different? Oh yes, BioWare said that anthem was being worked on for over eight years. But then we come to find out through Jason Schreier's reporting that they only started physical development on the game 18 months before the release date or the example of Activision Blizzard on how they deal with sexual assault in the workplace. I can understand being skeptical of the claims. However, the stance of 100% getting behind a company's words and then believing them.

Go with the remaster, Disney and EA. Also: don’t hire a a lead writer that hates the original two games and the fanbase as a whole.

It's easy to believe the doom and gloom. Communities are built around not only getting used to it, but celebrating it (how many hundreds, *thousands* consider the original an untouched treasure to cherish and still regurgitate past writers just to justify this needing to be cancelled?) Hope is harder to believe in. In times like these, you'll see that hope squashed with a mere turn of phrase from the right person. All it'd take is Embracer or Sony saying something to squash it for good. But I don't think there's anything wrong with hoping for something you want to happen when things are in the dark. Sometimes a little shred of optimism in our day to day is better than a shred of cynicism. And at the end of the day, if that hope does get squashed, at least you'll know there was a community of people that hoped with you to the end. That ain't so bad to me.

Things changes daily at businesses when it comes to information that was handed out or leaked so i take everything with a drum of salt. I do hope to see this game to hit retail shelves.

[@topper9004]

always appreciate your honest takes on things, even if you can't always be 100% accurate you're clearly trying to bring true information out there! Keep up the great work man and may the force be with you.

[@jmag4527]

You don't deserve the hate Luke, you've done nothing but give the most accurate news to us, the fanbase, that you possibly could. May the Force be with you, always. Thank you for being a Jedi that wants journalistic integrity 👍🏾

I’m honestly fine with no remake of KOTOR. I feel like whoever is behind the project wouldn’t be faithful to the original. Here’s a good example. Quite recently the new Super Mario RPG Legends of the Seven Stars game just came out on the Nintendo Switch and has been completely remastered even with new features that work with the game. It adds to the experience to its original from 1996 without taking anything away that made it so much fun and good. It is my favorite game of all time and I’m very impressed with what they done. And KOTOR is my favorite Star Wars game and Revan has been my favorite Star Wars character along with HK-47, canderous, Bastila, mission, zaalbar, Carth, T3-M4, Jolee Bindo, and juhani. I remember my older brother giving me that game on the PC apart of the sibling exchange gift for Christmas back in 2003 and together we played it non.stop. So I have an emotional attachment to this game clearly as I do with Mario RPG. So If they don’t give it the same treatment as another company did with their game. I wouldn’t be at all interested. They shouldn’t even bother wasting their time and resources or ours. Especially since it already had a rough “start” so I’m glad the game is scrapped. And no you don’t deserve any fire. You make great content and been subscribed to you for a while now. Thank you.

Guess i'm glad it's not Officially canceled yet

Oh good! I was expecting to rant on this one but turns out.. I’m still ranting but agains this stupid idiots that are bored and spread fake news for fun. Ugh! Thank you Luke for being the voice of reason! You must be really patient to do what you do. That being said, given how recent the report is I’m going to believe it over some rumors.

[@turtlerides]

Keep doing you bro, you're a fan just like the rest of us!

[@guitarbass22]

Unsure of what to make of all this insanity. lol. Just hoping for transparency from the company at some point and then we can move on. I’d love a KOTOR 3 some day, but the book “Revan” made sure that would never happen, so meh. Gonna enjoy the KOTOR 2 RCM in the meantime, and play KOTOR 1 when I feel like it.

[@100StarWars]

We can certainly hope for transparency...

[@s0ph053]

Probably the first time I can say I saw the facts before the drama. Thank you for this information. I do hope the remake is still in development.

[@PallahDaOracle]

The ups and downs with kotor is just insane.

[@joshuajefferson3504]

I honestly stopped giving a sht about this remake. 😑

[@xxcaptninjaxx4301]

me too when I hear about sam magg involvement on this remake become development hell now is dead honestly I rather go back played original kotor 1

[@spacepirates5044]

Thanks so much for diligently keeping us updated for so long! Love what you do for the KOTOR community

[@MrJamessalas09]

I appreciate your honesty, research, And dedication to kotor and us as fans and you as a fan yourself. You're amazing. Thank you man.

[@milanjazbincsek155]

I strongly believe that Disney does NOT want to release Legends content. Or the developers realised they could not create a game which is the worthy successor of KOTOR 1.

[@FallenxMalo]

Long story short... never trust anyone who isn't super close to you (either blood related or in friendship) and even then be prepared for a bad event that might occur.

[@sleepyhyrule6894]

I wonder if the third party that wouldn't approve the dlc was Nintendo. Nintendo's immediate response to the back lash was to blame Aspyr.

[@zechariahmckenzie7557]

Maybe kotor apeiron might still happen. . 😢

[@Do_not_at_me_bro]

It would have to be grassroots underground and posted on torrent sites. With torrents it's easy for someone to re-upload it
