The KOTOR Remake trailer follows the recent announcement that all past, present and future Star Wars games will now fall under the Lucasfilm Games banner. The original game was developed by BioWare and published by LucasArts, and it was followed one year later by Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords, developed by Obsidian Entertainment. Over the course of the game, the Jedi forms a crew that aids him in his quest, but it's later revealed that the Jedi is actually the former Sith Lord Darth Revan, whose memories were wiped out by the Jedi Council. Released in 2003, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is a role-playing game that takes place roughly 4,000 years before the events of the original trilogy and centers on a mysterious Jedi who traverses the galaxy while attempting to defeat Darth Malak.

Well, nearly 20 years after it first debuted, the original KOTOR is still one of the most beloved games of all time,' Aspyr Media Lead Producer Ryan Treadwell said in a PlayStation blog post.

Reports of a Knights of the Old Republic remake have been circulating for quite some time, and in January 2021, it was rumored that a ' mystery studio' was involved (it's worth noting the trailer confirms the remake hails from Sony Interactive Entertainment, Lucasfilm Games and Aspyr Media).
