On April 1st, you obviously know what that means: April Fools day.
Last year we got the Sarlacc Enforcer update – this year we got an update over the localization of Star Wars: The Old Republic into Shyriiwook, the native tongue of the Wookies. This faux update includes three videos of the Shyriiwook version of SWTOR and a new HUD skin that is pretty much a fur ball. Other than this small April Fool’s joke no real content was posted to the site by Bioware, and as usual half the community took the joke and the other half are outraged that the release date wasn’t revealed.
No matter which side of this argument you’re on, be sure to check out the funny videos and HUD skin here on SWTOR’s official site.
I personally like these funny updates, the game will drop when Bioware and Lucas Arts decide it’s ready, so enjoy this update and may the Force be with you.
Was a great update! We have to remember that Bioware have been giving us updates every friday for how long? Granted some updates have felt a bit lacking, but overall in my opinion they’ve been doing a great job.
And if you look really closely there is actually some new information even in that Aprils Fools update.
