Sony started hiding traces of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake
When asked, they didn't say that it was canceled, but they didn't say that it wasn't either.
Just recently, people started noticing that PlayStation's YouTube channel has privated the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake trailer and any related videos.
Others have also noticed that the Tweets from PlayStation showing the trailer have also been deleted, which has started a lot of speculation.
Some began to speculate that either the game had been quietly canceled, removing all official evidence that it was in development, although this was very unlikely as not all the media had disappeared, or that it might no longer be a PlayStation Exclusive, thus having to remove any mention of it being an exclusive, also unlikely.
With all this happening, some went directly with the sources to find out what was going on, like Stephen Tolio, who shared on Twitter that the reason for the removal of the trailers was due to Licenced Music, whose license had expired.
Asked Disney what was up and they sent me to Sony.

Asked Sony what was up and they said: "As part of normal business, we delist assets with licensed music when the licenses expire."
Of course, now I'm asking why the music license would expire for an upcoming game https://t.co/m9xjQQpWSc
This explanation does make a bit of sense, though, as pointed out in the same tweet; why would a license for music for an upcoming game be expired?, especially by the fact that the only music heard in the trailer is from Star Wars itself, not a song original to KOTOR, or from a different artist.
Hopefully, in the near future, we get more information from any of the parties involved regarding the game's development.
