In preparation for the release of Game Update 5.8 to Star Wars: The Old Republic, Bioware shared an exclusive image of Izax, The Destoyer. The final boss encounter and the long overdue finale of Operation Gods from the Machine on Iokath is coming on 20th of March 2018. The update was initially scheduled for release on 13th of March, but due to some issues specifically related to the Izax encounter, the developers decided to push it back with one week. This also means that Game Update 5.9 was also pushed back with one week.
Izax will have Story and Veteran Mode difficulties, but the challenge in VM will be significantly higher, explained game producer Keith Kanneg. There will also be a special event for Izax between updates 5.8 and 5.9 with unique achievements and rewards.
As we know, a new set of Augments is also coming with Patch 5.9 in May. This new upgrade is tied to the difficulty of the Izax encounter. The new schematics will be hard to get and expensive to craft.
Stay tuned for more information about this boss and Update 5.8 in the next few days! If you want to learn the news first and never miss an update – sign up to receive Notifications for New Posts!
