Star Wars: The Old Republic Releases New Cinematic Trailer

By Rollin Bishop

The long-running Star Wars MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic from BioWare and Electronic Arts is releasing its latest expansion, Legacy of the Sith, today. And in celebration of both the launch of said expansion and 10 years of Star Wars: The Old Republic in general, it collaborated with Industrial Light & Magic on a brand-new cinematic trailer. If there's one thing the video game is known for, especially from its early days, it's incredibly impressive cinematic trailers, and the latest one does not disappoint.

The new cinematic trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic is titled "Disorder" and focuses on a major point of divergence between the Sith and Jedi. As a full Jedi and Padawan fight to destroy a machine, Darth Malgus appears and tries to tempt the younger Jedi. The whole thing is about questioning beliefs, and who chooses what and when and why. In short, it seems like fertile ground for the full expansion to explore.

Additionally, there are a bunch of enhancements and upgrades to the video game like the release of Combat Styles and other quality-of-life updates.
