Knights of the Old Republic Hits Mobile via Epic Games Store

The Epic Games Store is giving away another fantastic pair of games! This time, it's BioWare's critically acclaimed Knights of the Old Republic duology, available for free on mobile!

BioWare, a studio known for both passionate fans and vocal critics, undeniably created a Star Wars masterpiece with Knights of the Old Republic. If you've missed out on this fan-favorite RPG, now's your chance to experience it (and its sequel) for free on the Epic Games Store's mobile platform.

One of Epic's original selling points was its free game program, offering users free titles to keep permanently. While it hasn't fully converted PC gamers from Steam, its mobile initiative might prove more successful.

Knights of the Old Republic takes place millennia before the familiar Star Wars films and shows. You play a Jedi tasked with stopping a Sith plot. With customizable lightsabers, Force powers, and a memorable cast of companions, it’s easy to see why this game remains a classic.

This isn't the first mobile port of Knights of the Old Republic, but a refreshed version from the Epic Games Store would be a welcome sight. Regardless, offering a critically acclaimed BioWare duology is a significant boost to their free games program.

Whether this will attract a large influx of new players remains to be seen.
