While impressive there is still some ways to go before it rivals Geoff Keighley’s other awards show “The Game Awards” which had 85 million live streams back in December 2021

The majority of the Summer Game Fest took place from June 9-12 but announcements were made over a matter of weeks as well and earlier on June 2nd PlayStation had it’s state of play event which showcased games such as Street fighter 6, Final Fantasy 16 and the long-awaited Resident Evil 4 Remake. The Xbox and Bethesda showcase on June 12th had their own games to show off such as the first look into Starfield Gameplay and Redfall gameplay.

Next year there will be another Summer Game Fest which Geoff Keighley confirmed will be both a digital and in-person event “I’m excited to share that Summer Game Fest will return in June 2023 as a digital and an in-person event, to bring the gaming community together,”

It’s unclear whether this means that the Summer Game Fest will be open to the public or not but if it is it would mark the first time that the Summer Game Fest can be attended physically as previous years were digital showcases.

On top of that E3 which was the go-to for many top announcements will be coming back in 2023 as the E3 owner entertainment software association has said during this month that they are planning to bring back the long-running gaming event in 2023

With a variety of game shows taking place as well as various companies such as PlayStation during their own showcases it’s unclear just how much there will be to show but it’s sure to be competitive and exciting year for gaming in general.

Star Wars Knights of the old republic 2 or most commonly known as KOTOR 2 is a beloved RPG game released all the way back in 2004 that was recently ported to the Nintendo switch but included in the game is a game-breaking bug that crashes the game after the Basilisk Crash cutscene when landing on  Onderon this currently makes the game unbeatable in any legitimate way, however, Aspyr Studios have suggested that “For now, our suggested workaround is to warp past the point where the game crashes using the cheats menu.”

““To do so, triple-click the left thumbstick, open the cheats menu, select warp, and warp to OND504. Make sure not to head to the merchant quarter, as your game will crash.”

This fix while not perfect does allow for the player to further progress in the game but for those that would rather wait for a more legitimate way to go through the game without the use of the cheat menu then rest assured that Aspyr is aware of the issue and is currently investigating it any updates to the matter will be posted on their socials and support page including when we might see a possible patch to this problem.

The recent tweet made by the company had led many to believe that this was a bug that was affected every KOTOR II player but a representative of the company has assured people that this bug was only affecting a small number of players nevertheless a fix to the problem will be coming in the next patch for the switch version with an estimated date still unknown.

As well as that it’s still unknown when Aspyr studios will be releasing the free DLC to include the missing content that the game was infamous for lacking at its initial release all the way back in 2004, as currently the base game itself is deemed by many to be incomplete in its current state, modders on the PC version were able to release a restored content mod but for switch, we’ll have to wait for the DLC to enjoy it on the system the DLC is slated to release sometime before the end of this year, however.

Aspyr Studios is currently in charge of the KOTOR remake for the PS5 and PC which was announced last year during a PlayStation presentation, the almost two decades old game is not just a simple remaster it’s been claimed that “It’s being rebuilt from the ground up, with modern visuals and technology”

The post Star Wars KOTOR II developers now offer a way to get around game-breaking bug on the switch first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The beloved Star Wars RPG  Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II most commonly known as KOTOR 2 by fans which was originally released back in 2004 which had you create your own Jedi and venture around various areas in the star wars universe  has had a recent release in 2022 on the Nintendo switch, this release was mainly unchanged from the 2004 release and it was recently discovered that due to a game-breaking  bug the game is currently unbeatable according to VGC

One Twitter user that goes by Daniel Moore discovered that the crash occurred after the Basilisk crash cutscene this bug was apparently reported to Aspyr Media who were in charge of porting the beloved star wars game to switch before it became a known issue, Aspyr Media responded by saying that this was a known issue that will be fixed in the next patch but currently there is no ETA on when that patch would actually go live.

Yeah I was one of the users who reported it before it was a known issue.

Just to be clear you're aware that there is no way to complete this game currently?

KOTOR II which was released all the way back in 2004 saw a port to the Nintendo switch along with the previous entry this continues the trend with various old games being rereleased on the popular Nintendo Switch console and while quite a few have been a rather rough port the unique selling point of being able to take a lot of your old favourite games with you anywhere on the go is too tempting to pass up the game itself back in 2004 while being beloved and seen as a successor to the previous entry is believed to mainly be unfinished however with various bugs and missing content has not been changed that much from being ported over, however, Aspyr Media has promised that a free DLC that is slated to come later this year will restore various missing content from the game that many fans who have played the original game will not have seen. Still, a warning to those that are looking forward to this DLC it’s been confirmed that due to how intricate this DLC will be you will have to create a brand new save in order to enjoy this free DLC.

Aspyr media are also working on creating a complete remake of Knights Of The Old Republic (KOTOR) which was announced back in 2021 during a PlayStation showcase the game is being remade from the ground up and planned to be released on both the PS5 and PC with a release date currently unknown
