The Old Republic: Shadow of Revan expansion out now

Revan, then. If you've played KotOR, you'll know that he's a pretty big deal in that story. And now he's making a return in his very own Star Wars: The Old Republic expansion. Shadows of Revan is its name, and filling the MMO with new story is its game.

Here, have a trailer:

If that appeals, Shadows of Revan is now available to buy for all players. In practical terms it'll offer new story missions, two new planets, an increased level cap, and new Flashpoints and Operations. There's also a new Disciplines system, which rejigs the game's skill trees in order to show players the core of a class's combat much earlier in the game.

He eventually joined full-time as a news writer, before moving to the magazine to review immersive sims, RPGs and Hitman games. Now he leads PC Gamer's UK team, but still sometimes finds the time to write about his ongoing obsessions with Destiny 2, GTA Online and Apex Legends. When he's not levelling up battle passes, he's checking out the latest tactics game or dipping back into Guild Wars 2. He's largely responsible for the whole Tub Geralt thing, but still isn't sorry.
