Game Overview

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is a immersive, action-packed Star Wars role playing experience with customizable and evolving playable characters.

The Bottom Line

The role-playing game from veteran developers Bioware is set in the Star Wars universe, but some 4,000 years before the events of the movies. Players get to use a lightsaber or two, train as a Jedi Knight and choose which path of The Force they want to follow: the honorable Light Side or the passionate Dark Side. The hybrid combat system combines turn-based and action elements into a totally new style of gameplay: slow enough to let players soak up the details of the story, but not bogged down by pointless quests or collection tasks. Most quests are optional, but the required missions are full of action and adventure so players are up to their lightsaber in fun.
