- Tatooine is absolutely huge. Even with a mount it took a while to get from one place to another
- Blizz is a Jawa companion that only Bounty Hunters receive. He is a DPS gadgeteer.

- There is one more warzone that has not be announced and that people will be excited about because it is “special”.
- Tatooine is visitable by all classes, Dune Sea will be a huge PvP server hotspot
- When you die, there is a Medical Probe option that revives you exactly where you died. Upon revival you have 12 secs of Ultra-Stealth that no one can see.
- You can not level purely through PvP
