Switch console owners will soon be able to play Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lordsreleased in 2004 and considered by Star Wars fans as one of the best titles from George Lucas ’universe.
Disney recently announced that a new version of the game compatible with the hugely popular Nintendo console, made by Aspyr studios, will be available on June 8th.
The game should have better resolution than the original and feature some performance improvements, according to a blog post on Disney’s Star Wars website. (New window).
Another good news for fans of the title: the Switch version will be accompanied, after its launch, by a downloadable extension of content restoredagain according to the blog post.
Due to a very tight schedule with its first release in 2004, original developer Obsidian Entertainment had to drop large portions of the story, and the game, despite overall good reviews, was sometimes called unfinished. So it looks like the downloadable expansion should detect that sidelined content.
It’s now possible to pre-order the game in the Nintendo store for $ 17, or for $ 36.94 with the first one. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republiclaunched on Switch in November.
