Saber Executive Hints KOTOR Remake Could Land in 2028

A leaked message boosting confidence that the long‑running remake is active was verified by Saber but the company said the 2028 timing is not an official release target.

Overview

  • On Thursday a post by Saber’s new chief business officer, Steve Allison, listed a 2028 lineup that included the phrase “hopefully KOTOR remake,” a comment that was later confirmed as genuine by Saber sources.
  • Saber told PC Gamer the message is authentic but cautioned it should not be read as an official statement about the remake’s development status or a firm release date.
  • The remake remains in development at Saber after an earlier stint at Aspyr and a studio transfer that reports say placed work with Saber’s Mad Head Games subsidiary.
  • Allison’s post also emphasized Saber’s publishing approach and rejection of aggressive microtransactions, a stance tied to recent player backlash over paid content on other Saber titles.
  • If the 2028 window holds it could set expectations for a mid‑2027 public showcase and continued work targeting PS5 and PC, but fans should treat the year as tentative until Saber issues formal confirmation.
