Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Shifts to New Studio

After reports last month that the remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic had been delayed indefinitely, Bloomberg.com are reporting that the development will move from Aspyr Media to Saber Interactive in Eastern Europe.

The highly anticipated remake of the video game Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic has a new developer after a bumpy ride.

The project, formerly in development at Austin, Texas-based Aspyr Media, is now being led by one of Saber Interactive’s Eastern European studios, according to a person familiar with the change who asked not to be identified because the details are private. Both developers are owned by the Swedish company Embracer Group AB, which obliquely referenced the pivot in a public statement last week. A representative for Embracer didn’t immediately have a comment.

More on this as we get it.
