Slecht nieuws voor de spelers van de Star Wars Galaxies MMORPG, want er is nu bekend geworden dat in december de servers worden uit gezet en ook de Trading Cards game er mee stopt. Deze MMORPG heeft zich acht jaar staande kunnen houden maar de dark side van de force was schijnbaar te groot. Naast de officiële verklaring, heeft ook Obi Wan Kenobi het volgende er over gezegd: I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

We are extremely grateful to all of the SWG fans. We have had the rare opportunity to host one of the most dedicated and passionate online gaming communities and we truly appreciate the support we've received from each and every one of you over the course of the past eight years.

In recognition of your incredible loyalty, we are extending special Fan Appreciation offers to the current SWG community. We also plan to go out with a bang with a galaxy-ending in-game event in December and hope to see you all there. The details relating to these offers and events as well as the timeline and specifics regarding the discontinuation of the service, are provided below.

Again, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our player community for making SWG one of the best online communities in gaming history.
