Let’s dive into the details of what players can expect with this new game update!
Story Update - “Showdown on Ruhnuk”In this new story update, “Showdown on Ruhnuk,” players help Shae Vizla in her hunt for Heta Kol, a rogue Mandalorian who has gathered an army of rebels under the banner of the Hidden Chain. This pursuit brings them to Ruhnuk, an inhospitable planet at the center of an electrical nebula.
New planet - RuhnukThis new planet–a dry, arid, and plateau-based world–was originally occupied to mine its various resources. The planet, now abandoned, is Heta Kol’s base of operations.
