BioWare has announced the release date for the new Star Wars: The One Republic expansion

Star Wars fans are looking forward to celebrating Star Wars: The One Republic‘s 10th anniversary this year.

The multiplayer online role-playing game based in the Star Wars universe was released on December 20, 2011, and to celebrate, the game is receiving a massive expansion titled The Legacy of the Sith which will be released on December 14, announced by its developer, BioWare.

The Legacy of the Sith

The Legacy of the Sith will send players to the planet Manaan, the water world from Knights of the Old Republic where you might meet some non-friendly sharks. This time though, players will be on Manaan to find out what renegade sith Darth Malgus is up to, as well as catching up with various returning story characters like the aforementioned Tau Idair, Arn Peralun, Major Anri, Lana Beniko, and Darth Rivix. There’s also a new flashpoint on a snow planet called Elom and released shortly after, an operation called R-4 Anomaly set on a research base run by a Sith cult.

Star Wars: The Old Republic will also be receiving an update at the same time that will include a new combat style system. The new update will allow players to choose combat abilities of different classes from level one, rather than having to wait until they hit level 10 and unlock an advanced class.

In preparation for The Legacy of the Sith, BioWare released The Old Republic classic cinematic trailers in 4K versions. It started with the Deceived trailer first, but since then has seen the ‘Return‘, ‘Hope‘, ‘Sacrifice‘, and ‘Betrayed‘ trailers receiving the same treatment.

The Legacy of the Sith expansion will be out on December 14 for PC.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming up to celebrate its 10th anniversary as the only free-to-play MMO that puts you at the centre of your very own Star Wars saga, and what better way to celebrate this than by getting a new expansion later this year.

The new expansion, titled Legacy of the Sith, was unveiled in a live stream on Youtube yesterday where the developers BioWare discussed in detail what fans could expect from it.

Legacy of the Sith Gameplay

The new expansion will send players to the darkest depths and furthest reaches of the galaxy, battling for control on the aquatic planet Manaan, which houses a vital medical resource in its underwater facilities, across separate Imperial and Republic storylines

Players will also have the chance to explore a ruined Sith fortress on the planet Elmon in another new storyline that is available as single-player and multiplayer Flashpoint, as well as a new R-4 Anomaly Operation that tasks players with taking down an obscure Sith cult. Legacy of the Sith will also include the next Galatic Season titled “Shadows of the Underworld”.

Players can expect the level cap to increase from 75 to 80 as well as a new feature called Combat Styles that will give players greater customization options on the battlefield.

Play as a Trooper wielding a Sniper Rifle, or a Sith Inquisitor with a lightsaber in each hand, or even secretly use Dark Side powers while posing as a member of the Jedi Order. Loadouts will increase your ability to customize, allowing you to swap between playstyles and gear with a click. – BioWare.

The expansion is due to hit the public test server in the near future, ahead of its holiday 2021 launch and will be free to current subscribers.

BioWare is donning Legacy of the Sith’s Launch as the beginning of a year-long celebration, so there might be some more surprises in store for the MMO. It also said it won’t be showing anything at EA Play Live, but here is a list of what else you can expect.
