Ultimate Swoop Rally Race Event
The SWTOR June Events schedule is unfinished in this form as one more event is set to launch some time this month – the All Words Ultimate Swoop Rally.
This new event will launch together with the release of SWTOR Game Update 6.1.2. It is expected to be this month, but the official release date of the next patch is yet to be determined.
The event will take place on Dantooine, Tatooine and Onderon.
It will likely last for two weeks the first time it appears, because BioWare has been doing this with previous events.
After its initial appearance the Swoop Rally event will turn into recurrent and will be appearing every month or every other month.
The event along with a few other new features has been available for testing on the PTS for over a month now.
To participate in this event, check out the announcements on the Republic and Empire Fleet. They will direct you to Dantooine, where you will be able to participate in swoop bikes racing events and collect rewards from the newly available faction vendors as you earn your tokens and glory.
