The Promise and the Disappointment 1o2q3
When Aspyr initially announced the Nintendo Switch port of KOTOR II about a year ago, they also surprised fans by leaving fans in the dark about its release.
The DLC cancellation was announced on social media, where Aspyr thanked the KOTOR community for their enthusiasm and for the series, which had allowed the timeless saga to be introduced to the Nintendo Switch platform. While the announcement brought disappointment to many Star Wars and KOTOR fans, no specific reason was given for the cancellation.
The Restored Content DLC was supposed to include new dialogues and interactions, a future of Star Wars games on the Nintendo Switch platform.
Compensating the Fans 5kqs
Despite the cancellation, Aspyr tried to make amends by offering a complimentary game key to players who had purchased KOTOR II on the Nintendo Switch before the cancellation announcement. The games on offer for the compensation include:
- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords on Steam
- Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic on Nintendo Switch
- Star Wars The Force Unleashed on Nintendo Switch
- Star Wars: Republic Commando on Nintendo Switch
- Star Wars Episode I Racer on Nintendo Switch
- Star Wars: Jedi Knight Jedi Academy on Nintendo Switch
- Star Wars: Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast on Nintendo Switch
To receive the complimentary game key, players need to visit .aspyr.com and submit a request with their Nintendo Switch proof of purchase attached.
While this move by Aspyr may not fully alleviate the disappointment of the fans, it does show a commitment to maintaining good relations with the player community. The Star Wars: KOTOR II ‘Sith Lords’ DLC cancellation is indeed a setback, but the future of Star Wars games on the Nintendo Switch platform remains promising, with more titles likely to be introduced in the future.
