Amazon announced the shutdown of New World, and laid off 14,000 people. It launched 6 months after our project, but couldn't meet 4th quarter profits, and it's gone. We're a community developed volunteer run online world. We do this because we love it. And maybe... that's how it should always be.

China has invented Bacta Spray.

What's it like developing a new planet? Here's a sneak peak at the seedy underworld of Nar Shaddaa, and the major pillars this addition will bring to Restoration. Dev diary 👉 swgr.org/the-emerging...

SWG branded joy to my memory, but it wasn't the dungeons or rare loot chests that made a lasting impact. It was the organic, weird, and often chaotic interpersonal stuff that kinda mirrors real life. It was... hawking meat! Raph Koster says the same is true in @playstarsreach.bsky.social.

As a project deriving itself from the vision of Star Wars Galaxies, we would be remiss to not mention that @raphkoster.bsky.social's new project, Stars Reach, has a Kickstarter launching tomorrow! All fans of sandbox MMOs should check it out! 🤘

🫵 Tag a streamer who would do this all day. We have much more to share about the future of Restoration! (hi 👋 if you're a content creator who loves player-driven MMOs and hanging out in cantinas, we'd love to connect! Comment below 👇)

This isn't your dad's Star Wars Galaxies. Players built this. 🤯

Expanding Horizons has rekindled our galaxy. We truly have one of the most positive, supportive, and collaborative online communities in gaming. ...let's try and break the server by setting off as many fireworks as possible. 11:59PM EST in Mos Eisley. See you there! 🎇🎆🎆

Don't forget to /tip your entertainers this Life Day! 🎄

Are you a Linux user? We have news for you! 🎉🐧

With new species, come new opportunities for player image designers to enter the market of... species reconfiguration 💉💰

Il team di fan di Star Wars Galaxies lancia il suo più grande aggiornamento, Expanding Horizons. Nuove specie, alberi delle abilità rivisti, texture 4K e tanto altro! #StarWarsGalaxies #MMO #GamingNews 👉 https://www.absolutegamer.it/nel-deathiversario-di-star-wars-galaxies-il-team-di-fan-che-manti…

Star Wars Galaxies Restoration adds new playable species, overhauled skill trees, new heroics, vehicle customization features, the Ranger profession, and a 4K texture upgrade. www.mmorpg.com/news/star-wa...

Trezya Nenei was a female Twi'lek member of the Aggregate Civil Liberties Organization who lived on Talus during the time of the Galactic Civil War.

This life day, all player-city mayors got a tree to plant in their cities. Players can claim a random ornament box in Wayfar or Doaba Guerfel. Then, it's decorating time. Let's see what you've got, galaxy. 🎄🌟

Life Day begins for Star Wars Galaxies rogue server @swgrestoration.bsky.social - plus the profession tree revamp is in alongside playable Bith, Nautolan, Chiss, Devaronian, and Mirialan

Players will find a way... Our content devs created a treasure hunt: find the parts, get the vehicle. Total area of Tatooine? 256 square km. Total time until the first player found all 10 parts? ~12 hours. 🤷🤷 we'll try harder to hide them next time, I guess!

Expanding Horizons has a new vehicle customization system! Before the only difference vehicles gave was speed and health. Although there was 50+ vehicles, players optimized for just a handful. In a game known for its deeply customizable systems, this wouldn't do... 👇

Today is the 13 year deathiversary of SWG. Which is why we're proud to release our largest-ever update with Expanding Horizons: 🎁 5 new species 🎁 New and revamped skill trees 🎁 Upgraded texture pack 🎁 3 new end-game heroics 🎁 Vehicle and droid tinkering ... and much more!

⚠️ ATTENTION CITIZENS, BY ORDER OF THE EMPIRE: Do not investigate your nearest image designer tent, or make contact with any image designers after the next 24 hours. Violators will be investigated, and charges may be laid. You have been warned.

In honor of the final shutdown of SWG servers 13 years ago, SWG Restoration will be closed for extended maintenance beginning at 00:00 GMT on December 15th and extending several hours overnight. Maybe there's more on the horizon, soon?
