It’s an unbelievable 15 years since Knights of the Old Republic took the Star Wars gaming world by storm, introducing such characters as Bastila Shan, Jolee Bindo and T3-M4. To celebrate that milestone, key KOTOR characters are being introduced into Galaxy of Heroes, and StarWars.com speak with senior producer at Capital Games Carrie Gouskos and BioWare General Manager Casey Hudson and Art Director Derek Watts.

To celebrate KotOR’s 15th anniversary, Capital Games is bringing more beloved characters from the Old Republic to the wildly popular mobile RPG Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. On July 12, Galaxy began launching in-game “marquee events” for fan-favorite characters like Bastila Shan, Jolee Bindo, T3-M4, Mission Vao, and the Wookiee Zaalbar, as well as the Sith fighter used by Darth Malak’s forces at the Battle of Rakata Prime. Players who dive into the new missions will also get to revisit familiar environments, including parts of the Taris Undercity and a Sith base inspired by the ones on Taris and Manaan .
