Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic Dev Teases Game Length - IGN Daily Fix

This gaming news update covers Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, Silent Hill, Saros, and Xbox achievements. Game director Casey Hudson indicated that Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic won't be excessively long, aiming for a completion time under 50 hours, similar to his previous acclaimed titles like Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect, while retaining replayability through branching narratives. Arconaut Studios, the developer, is new, suggesting a release later this decade. Konami's revival of Silent Hill is proving successful, with the Silent Hill 2 remake reaching over 6 million players and Silent Hill F exceeding 2 million sales. Upcoming releases include Silent Hill Townfall and a remake of the original Silent Hill. Conversely, PlayStation's exclusive Saros has had a reportedly slow start, selling around 300,000 copies in its first two weeks. This is significantly less than Returnal, which benefited from the PS5's launch window and a cheaper market. Xbox is introducing a new gamer score tracking feature with tiered badges to showcase player achievements, with the highest scores currently around 8.5 million. An IGN Live event in Los Angeles on June 6th and 7th is also announced, featuring game reveals, playable demos, and celebrity appearances.
