A remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is rumored to be in development from Aspyr Media. So far, nothing official has been confirmed, but it's exciting to think that a new entry in this beloved Star Wars series could be releasing in the near-future. A modern KOTOR remake presumably means modern new features, and allowing people to keep playing after the credits is definitely a must.

Very little is known about the KOTOR remake at this time, although reputable sources say a new KOTOR game is coming from Aspyr Media. The newly-formed Lucasfilm Games has already announced some new titles with big-name video game studios, including Ubisoft and Bethesda, so a new KOTOR game from another studio is totally plausible.

The prospect of a KOTOR remake or reboot is pretty exciting. Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 are two of the most beloved and influential Star Wars games. And while there are a lot of reasons to be excited for a KOTOR remake, one factor is having some more modern gaming elements implemented into a great series. Allowing fans to continue playing after the credits roll is a must, and a modern KOTOR remake practically demands it.

KOTOR Remake: Why Post-Credits Content Is A Must

The original KOTOR is still one of the best (maybe even THE best) Star Wars video games to ever release. However, once players beat the game and see the credits - that's it. The game is done, unless players want to reload from a previous save file. A new KOTOR game would definitely benefit from having post-credits content.

Post-credits content is pretty much common practice nowadays, even if it's something as simple as just letting players roam around the world once the main story is finished. A large-scale (and even open-world) game like the KOTOR remake needs this modern gaming feature as well. Getting to revisit planets, characters, and unfinished quests after the credits would make it immensely more fun - even if additional content isn't actually added after the credits roll. Ubisoft's open-world Star Wars game, which is officially confirmed, will surely have post-credits content and the new KOTOR game should undoubtedly have this feature as well.

Playing a game after the credits roll is sometimes the funnest part, and the rumored KOTOR remake from Aspyr Media should definitely let people keep playing once the main story is wrapped up. Getting to revisit planets and characters, as well as getting to complete unfinished quests, are just some of the reasons post-credits gameplay is needed in the Knights of the Old Republic game.
