Dark vs. Light takes over the Star Wars: The Old Republic Galaxy

Star Wars

The battle between the dark side and light side of the Force grows stronger in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Today, BioWare and Lucasfilm reveal details of a new in-game event where players take on new challenges in the fight for control of the galaxy. The summer-long event begins June 28 and is open to Star Wars: The Old Republic players interested in earning legendary rewards and changing the fate of the galaxy, but probably the former since, you know, this is only a video game:

  • Start a new character, choose a side and join the battle!
  • Earn epic new rewards including the formidable Victor’s Titan Turret Tank, Victorious Pioneer’s Armor Set which gives +50% XP Boost and Force-Bound Dark vs. Light Packs stocked with dark and light side themed items
  • Your choices make the dark or light side grow stronger and determines which Companion reward is unlocked for players who complete the Eternal Level – either the merciless Darth Hexid Companion (dark side) or the valiant Master Ranos Companion (light side)

The outcome of everyone’s dark and light side decisions will determine the state of the galaxy as the future of Star Wars: The Old Republic evolves this Autumn. So be sure to check here to see which side is dominating and stay tuned for more details. The idea of a major event like this impacting the future of the game is interesting to say the least, but we shall see how it all works out.
