Even in the hallowed halls of Star Wars games, Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords stands out as one of the very best. A sequel to BioWare’s 2003 role-playing epic, KOTOR 2 was developed by Obsidian Entertainment, the studio now responsible for hits like Fallout: New Vegas and The Outer Worlds. What’s most surprising about KOTOR 2 is that it was released only one year after the original game, meaning it had a severely condensed development cycle. Despite that, the game became a cult classic, although it’s notorious for feeling “unfinished.” The trailer for the recently-announced Nintendo Switch port of the game held an extra surprise, with a “Restored Content DLC” coming soon. Details are still a bit scarce, but it’s the perfect time to dive into what happened with KOTOR 2 and what this upcoming DLC could mean.
