Star Wars Galaxies: Jump To LightSpeed Launched (October 28, 2004)

[ChrisReid]

Expansion I to the massively multiplayer Star Wars Galaxies has been released and is now available in stores. It takes the original Galaxies and adds long-awaited space combat and travel to the game. Numerous stretches of space have been added to explore and fight in. Basic combat is performed like a regular space combat simulator with augmentations gathered from the RPG portion of the game. The experience doesn't just occur from the cockpit however. Wing Commander fans should particularly note that the larger ships have full interiors to live in as well. That's something I would have very much wanted in Privateer Online. As we previously mentioned, lots of Wing Commander veterans work on Galaxies.
