The Old Republic getting two new expansions in 2014

Via the games website, Bruce Maclean revealed the 2014 Road Map for Star Wars: The Old Republic which included two new expansions.

When it comes to detailed information on the expansions, the details are a bit wishy-washy but Maclean stated “Expect to see two digital expansions in 2014 just like you did last year, with one similar to Galactic Starfighter in scope and one more closely resembling Rise of the Hutt Cartel.” Also revealed was the existence of new ships and “Your personal Galactic Starfighter Battle Record.” Below is a full list of everything to expect in the coming months…

• February 4th: Game Update 2.6 – Galactic Starfighter Digital Expansion, Free-to-Play Launch
  • Galactic Starfighter is now available to Free-to-Play players
  • SIX new Galactic Starfighter ships featuring a new ship role, the Bomber – tough support ships that deploy mines and drones on the battlefield. They can even place Hyperspace Beacons which function as mobile respawn points for their allies!
  • This update also introduces Galactic Starfighter Detailed Scoreboards with loads of new post-match information about your battle performance
  • Your personal Galactic Starfighter Battle Record with detailed lifetime battle stats, and the ability to link each stat to chat
  • Kuat Drive Yards is a vital starship construction site that is of interest to both factions, and forms the setting for a new modular type of flashpoint that contains different scenarios each time you play it.
