Tracking down a dark Jedi in Desperate Defiance
Apart from the Dark Harbinger armor, players of The Old Republic will be able to access a "Wookiee Jedi-inspired hairstyle and beard customizations" as well as a sleek weapon called the Serpent's Tongue Vibroblade. Although the advertising for The Acolyte does not show such a weapon, it most clearly matches the style of a Sith-oriented excursion over space. Given the new plot of "Desperate Defiance," it practically makes sense that The Old Republic would want a cross-promotional increase in marketing.
When Update 7.5 launches, the Old Republic players that participate in the festivities set off the "Desperate Defiance" quest, which will see Padawan Sa'har Kateen enlisted to retrieve the missing holocron of Darth Nul. Users will journey to the Minboosa District on Hutta, a new site with allies and adversaries both as the population appears to be under the weight of a protracted labor uprising. Though it's yet to be seen how this arc unfolds, players most likely will help to either support or stifle the demonstrations.
Star Wars: The Old Republic Gets Official Cross-over With The Acolyte TV Series
Star Wars: Old Republic Players eager to flaunt their enthusiasm for the forthcoming Disney+ series The Acolyte are lucky since Broadsword, the developer, is including a selection of fresh objects inspired by the show. Although The Acolyte is set hundreds of years following The Old Republic, that does not mean the Dark Jedi of the past cannot investigate some more recent trends in galactic fashion. While those following the Light might not have a new outfit for their closet, it's still interesting to know that some newer threads are showing up.
Declared on the official Old Republic blog, the game verified that players would be able to access the Dark Harbinger armor set from the Cartel Market as part of the forthcoming "Desperate Defiance" update, due to go live on May 29. Those who have been following the marketing for The Acolyte would surely identify the clothing as the same one used by the enigmatic Mae, portrayed by Amandla Stenberg. There are two versions of the Dark Hinger Hood in the kit: one with visible hair and another without.
The Old Republic: An unfolding universe
Star Wars: The Old Republic, which is more than ten years old, is growing with lots of updates and seasonal activities that constantly highlight the lore and characters. Although The Acolyte is set hundreds of years after the RPG, it is unlikely that the game will touch on the show; however, it's interesting to see some of those more memorable clothing items on screen. One can only image that even more cross-promotion activities are scheduled for the several forthcoming Star Wars movies and shows.
