KOTOR 3 Not Yet In Development
LucasArts not yet committed to another RPG sequel
BioWare and Obsidian Entertainment are chiefly responsible for installing a new found confidence in the Star War license with their two Knights of the Old Republic RPG games, but in spite of their success critically and commercially, LucasArts apparently has yet to commit to a third installment.
Totalvideogames was chatting with Obsidian Entertainment's CEO Feargus Urquhart about their upcoming Neverwinter Nights 2, and they came to discussing the possibility of Knights of the Old Republic 3, which Urquhart confirmed they'd been discussing with LucasArts for a year and a half.
"We have been talking with LucasArts to do KOTOR3 since August 2004 and we hoped to do it since KOTOR2 was done," he told the website. "LucasArts is thinking what they want to do with it and we would happily make KOTOR3, if that's what LucasArts wants to do."
What's LucasArts thinking? Expectedly, the publisher doesn't have much to say on the subject. "There's nothing to announce about a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic III at this time," said a LucasArts representative. Shocking news, I know.
LucasArts has announced almost nothing in terms of next-generation game development, though, so maybe E3 will shed some light on when we'll be rolling some virtual dice to see how much attack power our lightsabers have.
