In another galaxy far far away, BioWare ( The other Star Wars publisher) is pushing the double rewards event in SWTOR, that was supposed to come with game update 5.6 to the next patch. So due to a scheduling conflict in game. It will now go live with game update 5.6.1. Here is the news:
Hey folks,
Quick update on the planned double event which was to start tomorrow with Game Update 5.6. First, the bad news. We hit a scheduling issue within the game and the double event will not go live tomorrow as intended. Now, the good news. As a make good for this missed opportunity, we are going to run the double event with Game Update 5.6.1 coming on 12/12. As an added bonus this will be an extended double event as we will run it from 12/12 – 1/1!
We apologize for the change in date, but expect you will enjoy 20 days of double time through the holidays.
Thanks everyone.
