Star Wars: The Old Republic will launch Game Update 7.7, titled Dynamic Worlds, on May 28. This major update introduces new story chapters, a fresh PvP season, high-difficulty operations content, and several quality-of-life upgrades aimed at modernizing both gameplay and interface systems. The update continues the Legacy of the Sith arc and builds on changes introduced in 7.6, while setting the stage for even more to come.
Narratively, 7.7 focuses on continuing the threads from Desperate Defiance. Players will pursue Darth Malgus, explore the mystery of Darth Nul’s holocron, and uncover a hidden figure pulling strings behind the scenes. Though originally intended to be split across two updates, both Galactic Threads and Master’s Enigma are now nearly complete and expected to roll out together or in quick succession.
Major additions in Game Update 7.7:
- New story chapters following the fallout of Desperate Defiance
- Eras Window feature organizes the full SWTOR narrative by storyline and helps players track progress, making it easier to resume old characters or start new ones
- Mission Log overhaul with simplified UI and a built-in Galaxy Map for faster navigation
- Combat Style adjustments for several Disciplines including Juggernaut, Marauder, Sniper, Assassin, and more
Relentless Replication Master Mode:
- SWTOR’s latest high-difficulty content includes new achievements and Legendary Augment crafting
- The XR-53 boss drops materials for new top-tier gear
- Alternate augment access paths have been added through PvP weeklies and Veteran Mode
PvP Season 8: Champions of the Wild
- Launches with 7.7 and runs for 16 weeks
- Includes themed armor sets like Bestial Champion and Armor Set of the Wild
