Long before the Republic charted the stars, before the first lightsaber was ignited in anger, an Empire ruled in silence.
The galaxy you know — the smugglers of Mos Eisley, the dancers of the cantinas, the Jedi rebuilding from the ashes — none of them remember the name of what is coming. An Ancient Malevolent Empire: older than the Sith, colder than the Emperor, and patient beyond reckoning. Its fleets are already moving. Its agents are already among you.
This is Star Wars Galaxies as you have never played it: the iconic worlds and open-ended sandbox you love, wrapped around the high-stakes story and aesthetic of the Old Republic era. But the ending has not been written. That part is yours.
The saga so far
The Long Silence
Three thousand years ago the galaxy won a war it has since forgotten. The loser never stopped fighting it.
More than 3,000 years ago
The Exile
A Dark Lord of the Sith Empire, too powerful to be destroyed, is cast out of the galaxy entirely — exiled into another universe.
The long silence
An Army Across Worlds
Kept alive by multiversal power, he does not die. He builds. Across millennia he raises an army vast enough to consume entire worlds, searching every one of them for the planet he came from.
The link
The Wall Between Worlds Thins
A connection between the universes is forged once again. On the other side of it, an Ancient Empire wakes and turns its eyes toward home.
Now
The Incursion
His fleets are moving. His agents walk among you. The galaxy must face a threat that spans both space and time — and every faction in it has a choice to make.
Three paths
Choose Your Side
Will you maintain your allegiance to the Throne, join the fight for freedom, or put aside your differences to stop the total annihilation of the galaxy?
The Throne
Serve the Empire
Allegiance has its privileges. Serve the Ancient Empire and wield power the galaxy has forgotten how to resist — so long as you can keep it from consuming you.
For those who want power, and are willing to pay for it.
The Free
Fight for freedom
Every empire believes it is eternal. Take up the fight for freedom and prove this one wrong, one world at a time.
For those who would rather die free than kneel.
The Neutral
Stand between
When annihilation is on the table, old grudges are a luxury. Set the war aside long enough to save the galaxy — then settle the score.
For those who answer to no banner but their own.
