And its key features:
Star Wars: The Old Republic: Onslaught puts you at the center of the reignited war between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. Will you remain loyal to your faction or undermine and sabotage their war efforts? The choice is yours.
Explore two new planets, a new Flashpoint on the war-torn world of Corellia, a new Operation set in the lush jungles of Dxun and more! Reap the spoils of war with reworked itemization, an increased level cap, and new abilities.
New Storyline: War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire blazes across the galaxy. Crucial resources dwindle as piracy and crime escalate dramatically. Amid this chaos, the Alliance Commander has the chance to tip the scales in favor of either faction, committing their elite forces to decide the fate of the galaxy.
Onderon: On the ancient world of Onderon, untamed jungles and savage beasts hide a conspiracy that could shatter this planet's ancient allegiance to the Republic forever.
Mek-Sha: Built in a mined-out asteroid once controlled by the Hutts, Mek-Sha has become a crossroads for the entire galaxy: a lawless den of smugglers, pirates, mercenaries, traders, and refugees where opportunity and danger can be found in equal measure.
Objective Meridian: The dramatic finale of the expansion storyline takes place in an all-new Flashpoint on the classic SWTOR planet Corellia, where the Sith Empire and Galactic Republic engage in a brutal struggle around a key shipyard facility. Join the battle and explore this deadly battleground alone or with a group!
The Nature of Progress: Dxun, Onderon’s largest moon, is teeming with wild and vicious predators, drawing the attention of the unscrupulous Czerka Interstellar and a band of fanatical Trandoshan hunters.
