BioWare and the SWTOR community celebrate the release of the newest single player story-driven action game Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. To claim this new mini-pet, all you have to do is log in to SWTOR before December 10th!
To celebrate this fact or… perhaps to celebrate the first true story game since 2010 that actually has single player story and is canon on top of that, BioWare gives away a special mini-pet to all players, who log in.
To earn your RE-1 Scout Droid mini pet and have it follow and jump around you, you need to log in to SWTOR on any character and server between now and December 10.
If you log in during that time, your very own RE-1 Scout Droid will be mailed to you right away. Stop by the nearest mail post and pick it up.
Here is what the original announcement on swtor.com says about this promotion:
We want to offer our heartfelt congratulations to our friends at Respawn on their amazing accomplishment. Friday, November 15th marks the beginning of an exciting new journey as players around the globe begin their adventures with Cal Kestis and his companion BD-1. We cannot wait to join them in a galaxy far, far away!
As a studio that loves our Companions, we were especially drawn to BD-1. So, as a special congratulations to the Respawn team, we have built a new droid mini-pet inspired by BD-1. Since The Old Republic takes place thousands of years before the events in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, we worked with the Respawn team to make sure that our droid’s design was properly influenced by BD while also fitting within the Old Republic era. The Respawn team supplied us with early, unused concepts for BD-1 (which you can find in the upcoming book “The Art of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order”), and we took one of our favorites as the starting point for what would become the RE-1 droid.
And here are a few images showing RE-1 from up-close. Don’t forget to check out the featured video too for a full overview of the little guy.
