The Game Awards just blew my mind with the Star Wars: Fate of The Old Republic announcement
Arcanaut Studios, led by Casey Hudson, develops a new single-player Star Wars RPG blending storytelling and action combat, with a likely release in 2028 or later.
- Thursday at The Game Awards, Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic was revealed as a brand-new epic narrative single-player action role-playing game directed by Casey Hudson, director.
- Casey Hudson launched Arcanaut Studios and this FotOR announcement is the studio's first project, while Lucasfilm emphasizes exploring new territory and original Old Republic stories on the Star Wars website.
- On timeline and continuity, Lucasfilm confirmed FotOR is `not a direct sequel or continuation` and set later than KotOR, canon remains unconfirmed, while combat hints suggest a more action-oriented style.
- Arcanaut Studios says FotOR is in early development for PC and consoles, and the release date remains unconfirmed and is not expected soon given multi-year development timelines.
- Fans immediately debated whether KotOR characters will return as the trailer shows a ship resembling the Ebon Hawk and a new companion droid rather than HK-47 or T3-M4.
