Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic announced its dev team, and it's full of Mass Effect and KotOR BioWare talent — now I'm even more excited for the RPG

A screenshot taken from the teaser trailer of Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic.

Love and appreciation for Star Wars is in the air right now thanks to the Star Wars Day celebrations of May 4 (and "Revenge of the Fifth" on the day after). The revelry about memorable adventures in a galaxy far, far away may be drawing to a close soon...but the team behind one of the most promising upcoming Star Wars projects has made some exciting announcements before it does.

That project is Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic — a brand new single player RPG for Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and PS5 that was announced during The Game Awards 2025, and that will be set in the Old Republic era of the Star Wars timeline. It's the first game to return to that era since the 2011 MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic, which was preceded by 2003's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KotOR) and 2004's Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords.
