BioWare is serious about its plans to expand Star Wars: The Old Republic’s universe, according to the MMO’s game director James Ohlen.
Writing in a design note on the official website, Ohlen pointed to the game’s first major update – Rise of the Rakghouls – as evidence of the studio’s first step toward an expansive Star Wars universe.
“This first Game Update will show everyone how serious we are about expanding Star Wars: The Old Republic, and there’s much more to come,” he stated.
He reiterates the studio’s plans for the March update, listing additional “Operations, Flashpoints, Warzones, Space Missions, single player content, vehicles, and companion characters.”
Ohlen also adds that users should expect surprises between game updates.
“you never know when the Republic might strike Dromund Kaas, if a mysterious alien fleet could appear in the Core Worlds.
“Changes are coming, and they’ll affect everyone. We fully intend to support Star Wars: The Old Republic – and our players – for many years to come.”
Rise of the Rakghouls is the first major content update for Star Wars: The Old Republic, and features the metropolis planet Kaon.
