The return of Star Wars Galaxies?

Post by AceMastermind »

I stumbled upon this thread at swtor.com forums.

John Smedley is the President of Sony Online Entertainment (SOE). Cranks0 asked him this question on reddit.com:

SWG PLAYERS - OUR NEXT GAME (not announced yet) IS DEDICATED TO YOU. Once we launch it... you can come home now.

I'm calling it now. SciFi MMO unrelated to Star Wars, but with the heart and soul of SWG. Sort of a spiritual successor.

You're probably right, but i'll go way out and say its a Star Wars mmo with a different name and will be somehow related to the newest trilogy.

I dont know if youve heard, but i believe HelloGreedo (guy from youtube) and many others have started up new SWG servers through some sort of weird process. Check out his youtube channel, it might tell you how to get back on SWG even though it is technicially shut down
