Saber CEO Matthew Karch in an interview with Game File revealed the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake is still in development. He stated he could not say more about the game.
A representative for Saber did add they want to allow Disney, the owner of Star Wars, to take the lead in talking about games tied to Disney owned IPs.
Saber COO Tim Willits did recently say the game is still in the works.
"Saber Interactive is one of the largest independent developers in the world," said Willits. "We are working on numerous games across many different genres. Everything that we have talked about is still in development. We will share information on upcoming games when we have something cool to share."
The Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake was first announced in September 2021 as a PlayStation 5 exclusive.

Please do the game justice. The original rumors about what this game was didn't sound promising at all, sounded more like a reboot than a remake.
The original rumors sounded like executives at Sony were interfering with the creative process...
I doubt that has changed
Sounded like Disney was sticking their nose in too, there was talk of Disney wanting to change things to fit it into their new canon (the original is part of the old expanded universe, called Star Wars Legends by Disney).
I’ll believe it when I see it.
It's probably going to be a cross-gen game. PS6 is launching in either November 2027 or 2028 and this game is still likely years away.
Technically the kotor remake has never been officially acknowledged to be in development at Saber. ALl knowledge of that comes from Jason Schreier's reporting so it's not exactly included in "everything we have talked about" in the official sense.
Ignoring that Tim Willits is an infamous pathological liar in the first place. ButBut i'd expect some acknowledgement on the lucasfilm and Aspyr sides if it ever were to be cancelled.
