In the September 2021 PlayStation Showcase, Sony announced a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake rebuilt for PS5. Unlike a remaster, a remake is a complete recreation of the original game using the more powerful hardware. While Sony gave no release date, it did unveil that the game is being made for the next-generation Sony console.

Fans are eagerly anticipating the return of Darth Revan with updated graphics, controls, and mechanics to fit the newest generation of video game consoles.
