After more than a decade at the helm of Star Wars: The Old Republic, BioWare is handing the reins of the MMO to a third-party studio, rumoured to be Broadsword Online Games. This has naturally left the game’s assortment of Jedi, smugglers and other adventurers wondering what this means for the future of The Old Republic, and a recent developer update attempts to alleviate fears that it will be shunted into maintenance mode and left to stagnate.
“As I’ve said before, we are working on future plans including more story and modernization initiatives for the game,” says game director Keith Kanneg. “We’ve upgraded the game to 64-bit, and are working on moving the servers to the cloud, and there are more content and tech updates on the way.”
He adds that moving development to a third-party studio allows for a lot of creative freedom, though it’s not clear why it will be any different from when BioWare was running the show.

The day of the DLC is finally upon us, but before players jump into Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, some are debating whether they have what it takes to face off against all its new foes.
Those trying to dunk on Mohg, aside from speedrunners or benevolent sorcerers, should be around level 100-120. Elden Ring has been around for over two years now, though, and some players are realising that they may be a little too prepared for the fight ahead.
PC Gamer editor Fraser Brown even went into the DLC with his overpowered NG+ Blasphemous Blade build and found it to be a piece of cake. But after opting for a fresh start, Shadow of the Erdtree started to hit him just right.
For those looking for that sweet spot, studio director Hidetaka Miyazaki suggests that it’s difficult to overprepare. “We’ve kind of really pushed the envelope in terms of what we think can be withstood by the player,” Miyazaki says in an interview with CNET.
It doesn’t seem…
Companions are a defining feature of BioWare’s RPGs. The band of NPC followers who join your party in games like Baldur’s Gate and Dragon Age weren’t just a collection of yes-elves who quietly went along with every decision you made. They pushed back and disagreed, and would sometimes leave to go do their own thing. Each of those companions had a distinct personality and voice. That’s why there’s still no better argument-starter among BioWare’s players than asking who the best and worst BioWare companions are. (Jacob defense squad, represent.)
And so, when a group of veteran RPG designers came together for a recent GDC roundtable hosted by PC Gamer, the question of how the writers managed their casts came up. Obsidian’s Josh Sawyer took the opportunity to ask Mike Laidlaw, “At BioWare, was there a standard method for the development of the cast of companions and individual companions?”
Laidlaw was former creative director of the Dragon Age series, as well as being …
The maker of the viral hit survival game Lethal Company says a mobile version of the game that’s set to launch on the App Store later this month is “not real,” and you probably shouldn’t download it.
The demand for a mobile version of Lethal Company is understandable. The game made a big splash when it debuted in October 2023 and it still has a large audience on Steam, where more than 58,000 people are currently playing it. And the listing for it on the App Store looks legit: It’s pretty much a direct lift of the Steam page, including screenshots and a word-for-word duplication of the game’s description.
But, sorry, it’s fake.
“The mobile version of Lethal Company was made with no explicit permission and is most likely a scam of some sort,” a moderator on the Lethal Company Discord said in response to an inquiry about the game.
The mod also asked users not to post links to the mobile game in Discord: “We are pretty aware of this already and don’t want m…
