Hey everyone!

We're happy to announce that Game Update 6.2 'Echoes of Vengeance' is launching on Wednesday, December 9th! Maintenance messaging will be up on Monday with the specific maintenance timeframe and the patch notes will be up by Tuesday at the latest.

Hey everyone!

I wanted to follow-up here with some clarity on a few things. Conquests will begin at 12:00pm GMT, so the previous Conquest week will end at 11:00am GMT to allow for the hour cooldown period between events.

Some of you have been curious why we're making this timing change. We have aspects of SWTOR that reset on a weekly basis - Operations lockouts, Weekly Mission Resets, Conquests, etc. We know that these events are important for players and some modify their playtime based on when these resets happen. Aligning all our reset timers makes things easier for players to keep up to date with SWTOR, provides an expectation for future resets, and helps prevent potential development problems on our end when having multiple systems using different resetting behavior.

Hey everyone!

The event schedule for December has been published. This month the Pirate Incursion, Rakghoul Resurgence, and All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally events will make an appearance. These of course will be joined by the seasonal Life Day and Anniversary events as well.

I'm sure some of you are already wondering why the start and end time for events later this month are different than the norm. Game Update 6.2 'Echoes of Vengeance' will change the Conquest reset timer, making it match the Weekly Mission reset timer.

Hey everyone!

I wanted to offer some clarification. Until we can return to in-person events, we are planning to hold more Livestream Cantinas throughout next year. In the future, we're likely to do both once we're able! Since we tried a few new things production/format wise with the recent livestream, I wanted to take the opportunity to gauge the community's thoughts.

Hey everyone!

Two quick notes for y'all. While we've mentioned this in other threads, I wanted to double back and inform everyone here that we created a new code to receive four classic Korrealis mounts. The new code is CantinaLivestream2020. This new code will expire on Monday, November 30th.

Secondly, everything has now been uploaded to YouTube to view at your leisure! Keith mentioned that if the community really liked this style of a "virtual cantina", we can look into doing these in a post-pandemic world. Whether you liked the general format, meeting someone new from the team, hearing from voice actors etc. Let us know what parts you liked!

Hello everyone!

Today we published another behind the scenes style article. This time we pulled back the curtain and talked about the creative process when it came to making items inspired by "The Mandalorian". If you'd like to give it a read, here's a link.

Hey everyone!

Thank you for your reports concerning the LivestreamCantina2020 code.

According to our team's investigation, the code expired on Friday instead of next Friday.

Good news, we have a new code to replace the old one: CantinaLivestream2020. Use this code on the following page: https://www.swtor.com/redeem-code to receive four classic Korrealis mounts.
This new code will expire on Monday, November 30th.

Thank you for your patience and apologies for the inconvenience.

Hello everyone!

Earlier today we hosted a digital cantina event. In it we talked about the year so far and our upcoming game update - 'Echoes of Vengeance'. We also unveiled three recorded interviews that we had with a few of our voice actors. Below I have listed the highlevel bullet points from the livestream. The recording is available to watch now on Twitch and I included timestamps for each segment. If you prefer YouTube, I will include the publishing schedule at the bottom of my post as well.

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the delay on this front, it's been a busy night doing some post-livestream work. I created a new thread announcing the sale that'll be starting next week.

Hope you have a good weekend!

Hello everyone!

As I mentioned earlier this month, there will be a second Cartel Market sale starting next week.

- 50% off Weapon Tunings
- 50% off Color Crystals
- 50% off Collection Unlocks

These sales will start at 7:00 AM CST (1:00 PM UTC) on November 27th and last until December 4th at 7:00 PM CST (December 5th at 1:00 AM UTC).

Hey everyone!

Quick update regarding our livestream that was initially planned for last week. The new date and time is Friday, November 20th at 3:00pm CST (9:00pm GMT). Unfortunately with the revised schedule, Kari Wahlgren (the voice of the female Jedi Knight) can't make it, but we were able to prepare with prerecording so you still get to hear from her! And don't forget, that's in addition to two other (secret) special guests who we were able to record interviews with as well.

The team is excited to reveal what we have planned for Game Update 6.2 and hope you can make it!

Hey everyone!

I wanted to give y'all a heads up about some upcoming category-wide sales on the Cartel Market. Running from November 13th to November 20th starting at 7:00am CST (1:00pm GMT) , the following categories will be on sale:

- 50% off Mounts
- 50% off Mini-pets
- 50% off Companions
- 50% off Emotes

There will be another Cartel Market sale starting November 27th with different categories. Specifics for this sale will be announced a week prior on November 20th. Since we did a cascading sale leading up to Onslaught's release last year, I want to clarify this is not how these sales will function. The sales highlighted above will not carry over to the second sale period.

Hey everyone!

Earlier today we announced our next upcoming livestream on Twitch. On November 13th at 4:30pm CST (10:30pm UTC) we will be hosting a virtual Cantina! The familiar faces of Eric Musco, Charles Boyd, Chris Schmidt, and the elusive legend himself, Keith Kanneg will be front and center throughout the night. We will also be joined by three special guests! Their respective identities we'll reveal or hint at on our social platforms next week. A rough outline of the cantina will follow something like this:

- Pre-show with Special Guest #1
- 2020 recap
- Talk about Mando Storyline and feature Special Guest #2
- Talk about Kira / Scourge Storyline and feature Special Guest #3
- Other Game Update 6... Read more

Hey everyone!

Today we released another interview with a member of the team. This time we talked to one of the World Designers involved with making the Feast of Prosperity event, Allison Berryman! If you'd like to give it a read, you can find the article here.

Going forward, we're going to be more c... Read more

Hey everyone!

The patch notes for tomorrow's maintenance are now up and you can find them here.

Hey everyone!

After some investigation throughout the day, the team has discovered a scheduling bug with the Conquests at the launch of Game Update 6.1.4. The effect of it will be that this week's Conquest, The Balance of Power, will also run next week. The Conquest and Event schedule will return to a normal rotation after this double listing. We apologize to anyone that was looking forward to the Rakghoul event this week. I've also updated the website schedule to reflect this.

Hey everyone!

Inspired by The Mandalorian, check out the newest Armor Sets, Weapons, mounts, and more, available now on the Cartel Market.

Since Feast of Prosperity is a seasonal event, it functions like Life Day and Nar Shaddaa Nightlife. Meaning there isn't an attached Conquest to the event itself.

Hey everyone!

Game Update 6.1.4 is now live! Included in this update is our new seasonal event, the Feast of Prosperity. This update also brings Conquest changes, a new tier of Augments, and the addition of a Legacy Ignore option. A full breakdown can be found in this article and you can also view the ... Read more
