Friday Update: Hammer Station + The Art And Making Of Star Wars

In the midst of all the craziness that is the lift of the Fan Site Summit embargo, not to mention the media live streaming of the Beta, emerges yet another Friday update! Only four more of these before launch, by the way, in case you’re keeping track!

Today we get a video of the newly announced Flashpoint, Hammer Station. We actually got to play this during the Fan Site Summit and you can check out our impressions here! This is a hugely fun low-mid level Flashpoint for both factions:

The ‘Hammer,’ a powerful prototype battle station developed by the Republic, was thought to have been destroyed in the war, but it has mysteriously reappeared in the possession of the expansionist Advozsec. Determined to assert their new power, the Advozsec have been using the weapon to conquer neutral worlds in the Outer Rim. Now, before the Hammer can strike again, both the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire have set plans in motion to the station down.

Also as part of today’s update, we get a preview of The Art And Making Of Star Wars: The Old Republic. We did some coverage on this last week as well, and the guys over at TORWars even had a video of the book from the Fan Site Summit. This kind of thing is usually reserved for the Collector’s Edition of games, but since it isn’t included with TOR’s, you may just want to pick yours up now!
