Star Wars fans can finally return to the Old Republic. On Tuesday, developer Aspyr Media announced that it was releasing a newly updated version of the 2004 cult classic RPG Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords for iPhone, iPad and Android.
Originally developed by Obsidian Entertainment, The Sith Lords follows the story of a lonely Jedi exile who must team up with diverse people across the galaxy to thwart a Sith conspiracy aimed at destroying the Jedi Order forever. Like the original, of course Knights of the Old RepublicYou can achieve this either by including the light or dark side of the Force, with key decisions on your journey affecting both the exile and the story of the game itself.
According to Aspyr, this new version of Knights of the Old Republic 2 has been specially optimized for mobile devices. Since the game’s original release, modders have worked to release updates and restore content that Obsidian left on the cutting room floor. Unfortunately, none of this content is mentioned in the press release, and it is unlikely to get onto mobile devices.
Knights of the Old Republic 2 will be available on December 18th on mobile devices through the App Store or Google Play for $ 14.99.
