BioWare announced the next update for Star Wars: The Old Republic – Dantooine Incursion. Patch 5.10.3 will introduce a new event, which will be available for a limited time, but will be on a rotational method like the Bounty Contract Week or the Gree events.

The Nova Blades lash out at anyone and everyone they can find; despite originally being hired by the Empire, this brutal pirate armada cares only for the plunder they can claim. Staggered by the pirates’ ruthlessness and the Empire’s cunning, the Republic’s harried defenders put out a call for assistance from anyone who can help them hold Dantooine against the enemy’s deadly incursions…
