[Crook]

So what exactly is the latest news/rumors on this project? Is Bioware committed to continuing with KOTOR, or are they more focused on the Mass Effect franchise now?

 

[xwolverine2]

they should do something about wizards and witches now.......
that'd be so cool.

I believe that they're focused on the ME franchise as well as another game that they are developing.

Im sure i read somewhere that the KOTOR franchise would return, and has not ended with number 2.

There was an update on all this over at theforce.net today.

A source close to BioWare confirmed to us today that the studio’s upcoming untitled massively-multiplayer online RPG will be centered around the Star Wars universe, specifically that of Knights of the Old Republic, which the developer released in 2003. The game garnered critical acclaim and spawned a less-popular sequel, released by Obsidian two years later.

The game is being developed by the company’s Austin studio, formed in 2006 and headed by BioWare Creative Director James Ohlen, whose past credits include the first KOTOR, Neverwinter Nights, and Baldur Gate’s I and II."

The latest rumors circulating the good old interweb say 'not so fast' and were sparked by a post from Surfer Girl here. Surfer Girl states the following:

"Next year's Star Wars MMO, not being developed by BioWare or Sony Online Entertainment, will launch simultaneously for PC and consoles alongside the debut of the first Star Wars TV series in fall 2009, of which the storylines of the game will tie into. Those Artistic Lucases already have a second online title planned that I've heard has nothing to do with Star Wars."

So then its not tied to KOTOR...

It does say 'rumor' above the article. I'll save my excitement for an official announcement. Don't want to be disappointed.

 

[PWN3R]

Rumor or not, it's about ****ing time there is some news. Any news whatsoever.

Hopefully it's not an Xbox exclusive as the other titles. Just got a PS3 and have no money for a 360.

According to Eurogamer.net, during a recent analyst report, Bioware announced that they are working on both an MMO of sorts as well as another Knight of the Old Republic title using the LucasArts license.

A third (and final?) installment to the KotOR franchise has been anticipated for a long time now. With news of this next chapter of the classic game arriving, fans are sure to rejoice.

No estimated release date for either has been revealed at this time.

I think thats where all the confusion is coming from in regards to conflicting reports from insiders at Bioware.KOTOR would be a RPG not a MMO,..Aparently Bioware is developing a new MMO but it isnt KOTOR..

JZConcepts.com, the homepage of LucasArts' concept artist James Zhang, has a hidden folder that contains concept arts from "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic III". They could belong to either a canceled project or a current one.

If you inspect the front page of JZConcepts.com and click on his "Client List", you will find out that James Zhang's clients include LucasArts, LucasFilm, Miramax, Sony Online Entertainment, Vivendi Universal, Epic Games, and other high-profile companies. Zhang also worked on titles such as Kill Bill (movie), Deus Ex, Unreal Tournament, and various Dungeon & Dragon and Star Wars products.

Courtesy of the uncovered concept arts, we now know the names of these characters in KOTOR III: Dashaad (could be a faction or specie), Idriss, Naresha, Q10 (could be a droid model), and Vargas.

Dont ruin the moment

I think the only reason they didn't make one yet was to work on force unleashed which looks great btw. Hopefully sometime next year...
