Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic director Casey Hudson teases “new announcements” next year

Casey Hudson says Arcanaut Studio expects to share new announcements and information about Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic early next year. The update offers the first substantial indication of when more will be revealed about the role-playing game, announced around a year ago.

Hudson, who directed projects including Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect, says the team works in six-month milestone cycles and is making brisk progress. No release date has been set; the game is described as a spiritual successor to Knights of the Old Republic, and could feature in celebrations marking Star Wars’ 50th anniversary in 2027.
