"Led by Casey Hudson, Game director of the original Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic and the Mass Effect trilogy, the team of veteran game developers and storytellers at Arcanaut Studios is crafting an epic interactive adventure across a galaxy on the brink of rebirth where every decision shapes your path towards light or darkness. And... that's all we have for now. But I'm excited to see more of this thing!"
"The original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was developed by BioWare and released in 2003 on Xbox and later that year on PC. The turn-based RPG was set thousands of years before the events of the movies and told its own unique story set in the Star Wars universe. It received critical acclaim, and a year later, a sequel developed by Obsidian was released."
Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic debuted at the Game Awards 2025 as a new single-player Star Wars RPG. Casey Hudson, director of the original Knights of the Old Republic and the Mass Effect trilogy, leads development at Arcanaut Studios. Lucasfilm Games positions the title in the Old Republic era and describes it as a 'spiritual successor' to Knights of the Old Republic. The official description frames the project as an epic interactive adventure across a galaxy on the brink of rebirth where every decision shapes a path toward light or darkness. The brief trailer reveals little gameplay but delivers strong Star Wars atmosphere. The KOTOR games and The Old Republic MMO remain influential non-canon entries.
