- Game Update 4.7.3 was deployed during the usual maintenance window on Tuesday, though an issue was discovered that resulted in Patch 4.7.3a being deployed on Thursday.
- The various weekly passes were made Bind to Legacy in Game Update 4.7.3, and will be removed from the game in Game Update 5.0. Players with characters holding those passes when Game Update 5.0 is deployed will receive their original purchase price in Cartel Coins.
- Warzone commendations, Season Six ranked PvP tokens, and all crystals will be converted into credits when Game Update 5.0 is deployed. Cosmetic items purchasable with warzone commendations will then be sold for credits with a minimum Valor requirement.
- This week’s KotET livestream, summarised by Dulfy, discussed the new 4-player Uprisings. An associated developer blog was then released.
