Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic Gains Support For Controllers And Cloud Saves
March 6, 2014
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic for iOS has just received another major update.
Released for iPad late last May, Star Wars: KOTOR didn't get its first major update until last December. But that update turned out to have been worth the wait for many players as it brought several significant enhancements, including improved graphics, enhanced lighting, and, most notably, universal support for iPhone and iPod touch.
That update also included an experimental implementation of the game's support for iOS 7 game controllers. But with the arrival of the latest update to Star Wars: KOTOR, the game's controller support has exited its experimental phase and become fully functional. As a result, the game now fully supports controllers such as the MOGA Ace Power, the Logitech Powershell, and the SteelSeries Stratus.
The new update also adds another much-requested feature in the form of cloud saving. Previously, cloud saving was not implemented because of the large size of the save files. Apparently, though, a workaround has been found and cloud saving has been consequently added to Star Wars: KOTOR, allowing you to transfer your saved game across multiple iOS devices using iCloud.
Lastly, the new Star Wars: KOTOR update adds text localization and subtitle support for the following languages: French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
The new version of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is available now in the App Store as a free update or as a new $4.99 download (50 percent off its regular price). The game is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 6.0 or later.
