Dynamic Encounters is new open world content that offers a variety of missions for players to experience. They are meant to breathe life into the planets they inhabit, giving players a sense that something is always happening at any given time. As players explore planets, they will naturally come across Dynamic Encounters or they can find active Encounters on their map. Missions can range from taking out Hidden Chain forces to herding escaped Banthas running amok in a space port. These Encounters will debut on Hoth and Tatooine with 7.6.
Hidden Chain Invasions are special Dynamic Encounters where players are tasked with stopping Heta Kol’s forces as they continue to wreak havoc in the galaxy. These Encounters can take place on Hoth and Tattooine, but can also be found on several other planets.
As players complete Dynamic Encounters, they can receive special rewards like unlocking various Achievements, obtaining the Freckled Loth-cat Kitten pet and Hidden Chain and Electric Gaze armor sets. Completing the meta-achievents of each planet will grant the themed Frozen Peaks and Desert Sand Mounts.
The Propagator Core XR-53 Lair Boss
A new lair boss will be coming with 7.6. The Propagator Core XR-53 originated from one of the many broken pieces when the Emperor's Fortress crashed onto Ilum. The XR-53 is a Rakatan droid replicator trying to fix itself by harvesting resources. Story and Veteran Modes are launching with 7.6.

SWTOR to release inactive character names with Game Update 7.6
We’ve been looking for opportunities to release inactive character names, and we have selected 7.6 launch as the time to begin this process. Please read through this blog in its entirety to understand how you can keep your character name if it was impacted.
For players who are Subscribers on 7.6 launch
None of your character names will be impacted
For players who have a F2P or Preferred account
If you have not logged into a character since January 1, 2024, that character name will be released into an unreserved pool and can potentially be claimed by another player with 7.6 launch
If you would like to keep your character name, you must log into the game before 7.6 launch.
If you want to keep every character name, you must log in with every character before the 7.6 launch.
If you are an active Subscriber at 7.6 launch, all of your character names will be preserved.
If you are a player who loses their claim on a character name:
When you log into that character again, you will receive an opportunity to rename your character for free.
If you are a player who wants to claim a released name:
You can create a new character
You can purchase the Rename: Character Name Consumable item and rename an existing character
For one week following 7.6 launch, this item will be 90% off
The current launch schedule for 7.6 is early December. We wanted to give players advanced notice of this upcoming action.
We will be posting follow ups on our social channels and forums as needed.
Game Update 7.6 "Galactic Threads” Recap
If you were unable to watch-or if you want a recap of everything we showed during our Game Update 7.6 Livestream, don't worry! Below is a VOD and a breakdown of highlights from each segment we showcased on the stream.
As a reminder, Twitch Drops are enabled! Be sure to connect your Twitch account to your SWTOR account. Drops will be active at the start of each dev stream and with every game update launch.
From November 14th to November 28th, players will be able to obtain the Ilum Art Poster decoration (purple frame) after watching one hour of SWTOR content.
At 7.6 launch, another Twitch Drop campaign will be active. After watching four hours of SWTOR content on Twitch, players will obtain the Amethyst Vulptilla Mount. This campaign will remain active for 28 days following 7.6 launch.
Galactic Threads Storyline
*Story spoilers for Update 7.5 story content in this section*
Galactic Threads begins immediately following the events from the Desperate Defiance storyline. Players and their Alliance race to find Darth Malgus and stop whatever plans he has set in motion. At the same time, players will also seek answers surrounding Darth Nul’s holocron and the Hidden Chain’s ambitions.
Jekiah and Rass Ordo, Arn Peralun, Major Anri, Talos Drellik, Akaavi Spar, and Lana Beniko will be making a return in this story update.
Story Missions will be taking players to Hoth, Tatooine, and the digsite at Nul’s temple of Elom.
There is an important caveat that the team would like to address to set player expectations. While the “Galactic Threads” story chapter is well into production, the SWTOR Narrative team does not currently have all the components needed to deliver high-quality story content that adheres to the team’s standards, as well as player expectations for story. The release date for “Galactic Threads” is currently delayed until this content can be completed. Please note, no other content in Game Update 7.6 is impacted.
Cartel Market Additions, Remote Trading Outpost Decorations, and the Master the Fight: Starbolt Edition Bundle
A new type of decoration bundle is making its debut with 7.6! The Remote Trading Post bundle is inspired by Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge™.
When initially purchased, players will receive one set of “neglected” decorations. These items will appear broken, damaged, and will need to be fixed! After completing a couple of light gameplay missions, players will receive a full set of fixed decorations.
But that’s not all! Players will also receive two mini pets, a baby Dianoga and the D5-C0 DJ Droid.
Also coming to the Cartel Market are Star Wars: Skeleton Crew™ inspired items including a new armor (plus one variant), an array of weapons, customizations, and new dyes. (Mysterious Rogue Armor - with jacket and without jacket)

Freeing Inactive Character Names
We’ve been looking for opportunities to release inactive character names, and have selected 7.6 launch as the time to begin this process. If you have not logged into a character since January 1, 2024, that character name will be released into an unreserved pool and can potentially be claimed by another player when 7.6 launches. Players who want to keep their character names must log into the game before the 7.6 launch and log into each character. Players who are Subscribers at 7.6 launch will not need to take any action. Read here for more details!
Modernization
Our modernization efforts continue on with Game Update 7.6. Players will see updates done to Tython, Korriban, Hoth, and Ilum.
But wait, there’s more! Character models, specifically heads, will also see improved fidelity across the game! Players will see updates to their character via updated character textures, along with ocular specularity and with lighting, and shader improvements. Our goal was to improve the fidelity of characters across the game while keeping your character uniquely yours. Texture changes are starting in this update with Human, Chiss, Cyborg, Miralukan, Mirialan, Togruta, Rattataki, and Zabrak models.
