The Star Wars Galaxies online game series is designed to immerse players in the rich Star Wars universe. The first product will feature dynamic role-playing ground-based adventures across multiple planets in the classic Star Wars timeframe. Gameplay will offer a unique combination of combat, exploration, social interaction, specialized missions, and daring quests. Players will explore multiple Star Wars environments on foot or in land vehicles. Traveling between planets will be accomplished through the use of public shuttles, which ferry characters from world to world.

The anticipated space component of the Star Wars Galaxies online game will add personal starships and starfighters to the game, which can be used for travel or space combat. The expansion also promises additional worlds, playable species, non-player characters, creatures, and a variety of other elements.
