    Hello fellow Star Wars fans.

    I grew up in the 2000's which wasn't necessarily the golden age for Star Wars movies, but It did give us one of the greatest video games that ever graced the galaxy far far away. The movies were great and I really loved them at a young age, but what really hooked me on Star Wars was the Star Wars RPG that was set in an otherwise unexplored time period of the Star Wars universe. Of course, I am talking about Knights of the Old Republic.

    Lately Lucas Arts has used many concepts from the game and I feel that sooner rather than later we will be getting a refurbished or rehashed story of Revan. Bioware has also signed up for an unnamed Star Wars project and recently, they have welcomed back the writer of the kotor story, (and the Darth Bane Novels,) Drew Karpyshyn.

    Below, I have comprised a short list of some of the things that Lucas Arts deliberately added to the cannon, In my opinion, to foreshadow the coming game, or possibly even a Spinoff movie(s).

    Selkath: The aquatic species thought up in kotor was represented in the Clone Wars by Mantu a bounty hunter who has soiled the reputation of the otherwise peaceful race.

    Manaan: In kotor the home world of the Selkath according to wookieepedia is cannon as the same planet.

    Taris: Mentioned in the cannon novel Tarkin and the first playable planet after you've left the Endar Spire in kotor.

    Korriban/Moriband - The Valley of the Dark lords: The ancient home world of the Sith and the mysterious valley in which the sith entomb their greatest members was depicted in Clone Wars to be very similar to that of the game.

    Teranateks: The clone wars gave a shout out to a Teranatek that was faced by Yoda during a story arc where Moriband and Darth Bane made camios. A taranitek head is displayed in the new (cannon?) game Star Wars Commander.

    There are references that I won't get into, but never the less I feel as though a new Knights of The Old Republic game is coming out, and doing so soon. Others have suggested that changes be made to the game as to fit in with cannon, my question to you is are you okay with changes to the original story? If so to what extent. This thread can also be used for any news you might have related to the topic.

    Thanks for checking out this thread fans! SWE7N and it's community are truly something special . May the force be with you all ;)

    I wish your prediction was true. However I doubt that they are going to do a new KOTOR while they SWTOR out. They don't want to do anything that would compete with that game. When they were asked if there would be KOTOR 3, the answer was SWTOR was KOTOR 3, 4 and 5 in an interview a while back. I would buy a new kotor game even if it had the same graphics, game play excettera but a new story. thats how badly I want a new Kotor, I'm doing a playthrough of the series again but I just know the game so well...

    There was an attempt earlier to try and make a KotOR III, but Lucas Arts pulled the plug so they could devote it's budget to some other projects. Let's just hope that, if this is true, that Disney doesn't pull the plug for the same reason, what with 6 movies coming out. Btw KotOR I is my favorite game of all time :)

    I feel the BioWare game will be a revival of the canceled 1313, Boba Fett/bounty hunter game in the style of Mass Effect. More customization, choose your adventure, etc.

    Although I'd welcome a KOTOR reboot.
