Star Wars: The Old Republic News - New Planet: Belsavis; "Blood of the Empire" Webcomic Announced

Posted by Michael Bitton on Mar 12, 2010  | 6 comments in our forums

This week's Friday Update adds yet another planet to the roster of planets that will be featured in Star Wars: The Old Republic, bringing the new total to a whopping 11 planets.

The newest addition is the glacial world of Belsavis, a prison-world  housing some of the galaxy's most dangerous Sith Lords, Mandalorians and vicious aliens. A Republic world, the Empire has recently discovered Belsavis'  existence and seeks to liberate its allies from Republic imprisonment.

Check out Belsavis' HoloNet entry here.

In addition to the new planet, BioWare has also announced a new webcomic entitled "Blood of the Empire." BioWare has teamed up with Dark Horse comics once again to publish this new webcomic series, which will feature a new perspective and a strong character-driven story written by BioWare's Senior Writer Alexander Freed.

View a sneak peek of the new webcomic here.

I don't know why, but I also thought of Beavis when I read this. Go figure. :P

Wow, eleven planets. I was expecting maybe six.

It looks like this game will be pretty massive.

That will depend on how large the planets' areas are.
