In an event that can only really be summarized as “senpai noticed me,” Star Wars: The Old Republic has had a brief hype trailer for its incoming Onslaught expansion posted by the official Star Wars Twitter account.
The video itself isn’t exactly revelatory, but it does a nice job of setting the stage for the expansion. It also certainly feels validating for SWTOR fans, judging by some of the responses to the tweet itself, which range from giddy excitement to hopes that the game will once more be made official canon. At least the more pleasant responses.
Meanwhile, the official game Twitter account has once more offered its own brief look at another location in Onslaught, showing off a shipyard in Corellia and hinting at “a brutal battle” that will be waged over the location. We’ve embedded both tweets below.
Galactic Republic or Sith Empire. Light or Dark. Loyalist or Saboteur. Choose your loyalties and change the future of a galaxy shattered by war.
More gear. More variety. More power. Check out Onslaught, the 5th expansion of Star Wars: The Old Republic, launching on 10/22. pic.twitter.com/0Xp04HW0sc
