New info is out today about the Summer of SWTOR Update, Patch 2.4. We also have reason to believe that this means the new PvP Warzone Arenas are coming soon. The devs said it would come with the Summer of SWTOR Update on October first, which means we are only a couple of weeks away now.
It’s always great to see Bioware (or any MMO developer, actually) creating new content and finding new ways to get and see the new content and PvP arenas?
SWTOR is also implementing BitRaider streaming so new players can check out the game for a trial without having to do a really big, long .
Bruce Maclean, Senior Producer posted this to the official SWTOR forums:
Hello everyone!
Here is a fresh update on where we are at in of hitting our schedules for the Summer of SWTOR, and a recap of all the exciting things we have in the works for the months ahead. The usual disclaimer applies that all of the below dates are the dates the teams are shooting for. As you saw with Game Update 2.2.2 which had to be moved back by one day, it’s entirely possible these will move!
On July 23rd look for a return of the Relics of the Gree Event for a two week long run:
- Per community request the event will scale up to level 55 on this next run, including better loot rewards, commendations, and achievements
