Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic Unveiled at Game Awards
At The Game Awards 2025, Lucasfilm Games and Arcanaut Studios unveiled Star Wars Fate of the Old Republic, a new single-player action role-playing game set in the Star Wars universe during the Old Republic era. The announcement, presented as the event's opening world premiere, featured a cinematic trailer captured in Unreal Engine 5 and highlighted the project's direction by Casey Hudson, known for leading the original Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic and the Mass Effect trilogy.
The trailer depicts a ship descending toward a cloudy planet, its landing reflected in puddles on the surface. A figure emerges alongside a lanky robot companion and approaches a firelit entrance, where the blue glow of a lightsaber illuminates their face, suggesting an encounter with a Force user amid uncertain threats. Developed by the Edmonton-based Arcanaut Studios in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, the title promises an epic narrative adventure across a galaxy on the brink of rebirth. Players will navigate choice-driven gameplay, with decisions influencing a moral path toward the light side or darkness of the Force, blending innovative storytelling, memorable characters, and intense combat.
