Primotech has reported that inside sources have confirmed that the unnamed Bioware MMO will indeed by based on their hit title, Knights of The Old Republic.
A source close to BioWare confirmed to us today that the studio's upcoming untitled massively-multiplayer online RPG will be centered around the Star Wars universe, specifically that of Knights of the Old Republic, which the developer released in 2003. The game garnered critical acclaim and spawned a less-popular sequel, released by Obsidian two years later.
The game is being developed by the company's Austin studio, formed in 2006 and headed by BioWare Creative Director James Ohlen, whose past credits include the first KOTOR, Neverwinter Nights, and Baldur Gate's I and II.
Lets just hope that EA allows Bioware to make the game without to much interference.
