“We really appreciate the stature it has with all of the fans out there. “We know that KOTOR is one of the most beloved Star Wars stories ever told,” Kellogg says. As it turns out, Lucasfilm has been listening. Fans have long requested a remake to bring the title, originally developed by BioWare and LucasArts, up to modern standards. Today, KOTOR stands as one of the most critically acclaimed Star Wars games ever, with the PC version amassing a current score of 93 on Metacritic. “This has been something that is a dream for all of us.” “Speaking for the development team, most of us are triple-A RPG developers,” says Treadwell. “It’s a big honor to have the opportunity to work on it.” “I really, really think that RPGs have never been the same since,” says Kellogg. So to borrow a line from Darth Vader, the circle is now complete for Kellogg and Treadwell. Aspyr - the Texas-based studio that has collaborated with Lucasfilm on various projects for over a decade, including a recent spate of well-received re-releases from the LucasArts era - is handling development, rebuilding the game from the ground-up.

I was so excited to finally create my hero and explore the galaxy, making the choices I wanted to. “When KOTOR was released it married those two passions brilliantly. One set me on my career path, the other kick-started my love of storytelling,” says Treadwell. “When I was 9, my parents did two things that were incredibly impactful: they bought me my first video game console - an original Gameboy - and they sat me down to watch a VHS copy of A New Hope. The characters were speaking to me in full VO and reacting to my choices, whether I was going light side or dark. “When I first put in KOTOR and saw that the camera was pulled down to ground level and I could look up at the skyscrapers of Taris, I really felt that I’d been put in the world in a way that I never had before. It wasn’t until I started playing KOTOR that I really understood how cinematic they could be,” Kellogg tells. I started on the Apple IIC and played all the BioWare games.
