Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 is coming to mobile later this month
The classic Star Wars RPG is coming to iOS and Android devices
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - The Sith Lords is officially coming to mobile.
Aspyr and Lucasfilm announced the Star Wars RPG is set to land on iOS and Android devices on December 18. Originally released in 2004 on Xbox and then PC a few months later in 2005, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 is set five years after the events of the first game.
After hunting down Jedi, the Sith Lords have almost succeeded in wiping out the Jedi order for good. Taking on the role of a lone Jedi who's the last hope for the Republic, you're faced with the decision to reconnect with the Force or turn to the dark side. With a focus on player choice, every decision you make will affect your character. Characters such as HK-47, Canderous Ordo, and Kreia can team up with your party, and what you choose to do will also affect those who journey alongside you.
“Fans have been asking for a mobile version of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II for so long, and we’re thrilled to finally bring it to them,” said Elizabeth Howard, vice president of publishing at Aspyr in an official press release. “We’re proud to continue working with Lucasfilm to bring classic titles like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II to modern platforms.”
Along with a new trailer, the announcement reveals the game will be fully optimised for mobile play with touch screen controls. Available on the AppStore and Google Play for $14.99, pre-orders for the RPG are now live.

I started out writing for the games section of a student-run website as an undergrad, and continued to write about games in my free time during retail and temp jobs for a number of years. Eventually, I earned an MA in magazine journalism at Cardiff University, and soon after got my first official role in the industry as a content editor for Stuff magazine. After writing about all things tech and games-related, I then did a brief stint as a freelancer before I landed my role as a staff writer here at 12DOVE. Now I get to write features, previews, and reviews, and when I'm not doing that, you can usually find me lost in any one of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games, tucking into another delightful indie, or drinking far too much tea for my own good.
