Even though this might not come to a shock to many of us, it is nice to finally hear official word that Lucasarts and BioWare are indeed making a Knights of the Old Republic MMO.
Portfolio.com published a short excerpt of its interview with EA boss John Riccitiello who tells the site that it’s "got two of the most compelling MMOs in the industry in development" including "the one that people are dying for us to talk to them about — in partnership with Lucas, coming out of BioWare."
Joystiq talked with N. Evan Van Zelfden, the writer of the report, who told them that when asked specifically if this game was "KOTOR Online", Riccitiello responded unequivocally, "Yes." Well there you go guys, it’s good to finally hear that the game is in the works, and that another Star Wars MMO (hopefully much better than the original) will be able to be explored sometime in the future.
