Players can choose to play as Jedi, Sith, or a variety of other classic Star Wars roles, defining their personal story and determining their path down the light or dark side of the Force. Along the way, players will befriend courageous companions who will fight at their side or possibly betray them, based on the players’ actions. Players can also choose to team up with friends to battle enemies and overcome incredible challenges using dynamic Star Wars combat.

All active Star Wars: The Old Republic subscribers can now play through The Battle of Odessen and confront Arcann and his powerful fleet in a full-scale assault that will determine the fate of the galaxy. Against all odds, you must face one last challenge and risk everything to board the enemy’s flagship… and take the chance to defeat Arcann and determine the fate of the galaxy.

In The Battle of Odessen, Arcann launches a full-scale assault against the Outlander’s base. Still recovering from a shattering betrayal of the now-renegade droid, SCORPIO, the Outlander’s Alliance must rally to defeat Arcann’s forces in a desperate battle to determine the fate of the galaxy. Play and be a part of the crowning chapter that sets the stage for a brand new adventure in the recently announced digital expansion, Knights of the Eternal Throne, coming this fall.

Star Wars: The Old Republic also introduces new gameplay experiences with this chapter:

• New Battler Cartel Market Pack: Inspired by the climactic new chapter, this pack contains a variety of new items which may include never-before-seen gear, like the Ruthless Scion Armor and ISO Droid Companion!
• New Guss Companion Alliance Mission: Recruit the wily Mon Calamari scoundrel, Guss Tuno, as your Companion. When the Alliance receives a lead on the identity of a potential new recruit, the Outlander’s search unveils the most unlikely Jedi candidate – serving as apprentice under a man of questionable character.
