Is It Time For Star Wars To Just Consider KotOR Canon Again?*

It’s time for Star Wars to consider Knights of the Old Republic canon again. In 2003, BioWare and LucasArts released the hugely influential Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic role-playing video game. Set almost 4,000 years before the prequel trilogy, this introduced players to a time before even the Sith Rule of Two – when Jedi and Sith numbered in their thousands. The setting was wonderfully immersive, and the gameplay was addictive. KotOR won 18 out of 39 Game of the Year awards, cementing its place in popular culture.
KotOR was a vital part of the old Star Wars Expanded Universe, complemented by a range of novels and comics. When Disney acquired Lucasfilm in 2012, the House of Mouse made a difficult choice; the Expanded Universe was declared non-canon, or “Legends.” Sadly, that included KotOR. But, surprisingly, the evidence is building that this particular part of the EU should really be considered canon again.
