Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) is widely known for its amazing action-packed CG trailers and in-game cinematics over the past 10 years, and the Legacy of the Sith expansion continues the trend. SWTOR is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts.
The Legacy of the Sith expansion brings with it many quality of life changes, such as a new loadout interface that allows you to create pre-sets for your gear, weapons, appearance, abilities, and quick bars to easily switch between different playstyles for different situations. A new level cap from 75 to 80, inventory updates, as well as combat styles, giving players more options to personalize their characters by choosing a combat style separate from their Origin Story.
The story of Legacy of the Sith builds upon Star Wars: The Old Republic’s dynamic plot and ongoing war between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. Players will adventure to the aquatic planet of Manaan on a campaign to discover the insidious plans of Darth Malgus - the game’s antagonist whose secret plans could spell doom for both the Jedi and the Sith. Legacy of the Sith brings with it new collaborative missions as well, including a 4-player Flashpoint set in a ruined Sith Fortress on the remote planet Elom.
SWTOR is free to play but it does have a paid subscription service, which you’ll need to play the expansion and all previous expansions. You can get it for CAD$14.99 per month. The Legacy of the Sith expansion was released yesterday, February 15, so you can jump right into the action on PC via Steam or their own website.
