Es wird kein Kotor 3 geben! Mass Effect ist der inoffizielle Nachfolger von dem "
Spielprinzip Kotor". Und was die Kotor-Welt direkt betrifft, kommt ein MMORPG. Daher ist es mehr als unwahrscheinlich, dass es jemals ein Kotor 3 geben wird (zumindest nicht in absehbarer Zeit).
Es gibt kein Kotor 3 - es gibt Kotor Online und Mass Effect.

K.o.t.O.R. Online
Das Star Wars Rollenspiel von Bioware geht online.
In einem Interview mit dem amerikanischen Wirtschaftsmagazin "Condé Nast Portfolio" hat der Electronic-Arts-Chef John Riccitiello ein Online-Rollenspiel im Knights of the Old Republic-Universum angekündigt. Das Programm wird seit zwei Jahren von Bioware (Mass Effect, Dragon Age) zusammen mit LucasArts entwickelt und soll nach bisherigen Planungen im Geschäftsjahr 2010 / 2011 erscheinen.
Wie das Spiel heisst, steht noch nicht fest. Allerdings hat sich LucasArts Anfang Juli 2008 die Rechte am Namen "Star Wars: The Old Republic" gesichert.
Die Wiki zu Kotor Online gibt es auch schon: http://torwiki.com/index.php?title=Main_Page
PS: Zum Thema MMORPG und Star Wars: http://starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/index.vm Das gibt es schon lange, lange vor WoW. Hoffentlich wird Kotor Online in einigen Punkten wie SWG, aber nur in einigen nicht in allen. :?
