Considered by many to be the best Star Wars game made, KotOR is one of the titles which benefits from Series X improvements. Adherents to KotOR can be found discussing the game in almost reverential tones. Why not go find out why? Especially if The Mandolorian has piqued your interest in that era of the Star Wars canon.

Particularly, if you do decide to take the plunge, the Series X should be the machine you use to do it; the performance boosts are invaluable. Load times are drastically reduced (a godsend here) and the game runs at 1080p, 60fps, with options to run at 4K as well.

The results speak for themselves, especially to old fans coming back; the game looks cleaner and runs more smoothly on Series S/X. It is a testament to the new systems the extent to which they rejuvenate these backwards compatible experiences.

So go and revisit a time when Bioware was synonymous with RPG excellence, with KotOR serving as a stark reminder of the quality they, hopefully, will one day regain. And of course, do so in high definition.
