“KOTOR III concept art,” the continuing story
Remember the supposed ‘KOTOR III’ images? Here’s what artist James Zhang told EUCantina:
“I’ve never used photobucket — those images were swiped off a private folder on my website, and certainly weren’t intended for public use.”
and
“I can’t really comment on anything regarding the images.”
I’ve been hearing some rumblings – nothing verifiable, and quite possibly simple fan speculation – that a KOTOR III was at one point being considered, but was dropped/postponed for The Force Unleashed, something a lot of the GDC stories last week support. I wouldn’t give up hope for future installments, but don’t certainly lose sleep over it.
Eye candy: Any port in a storm for KOTOR fans
CVG is reporting that these mysterious images by artist James Zhang are concept art for KOTOR III. Can’t say I’m entirely convinced, but I’m always happy to see some pretty pictures.
