This update accelerates Depa Billaba, makes Cinta Kaz farmable, and includes numerous bug fixes and adjustments. Changes address ability functionality for multiple characters, correct display issues, and update datacron effects.
Update 5-27-2026 ships Colonel Ward, Grogu & Anzellans, and Rotta the Hutt kits. Vel Sartha shards are now farmable from Cantina Battles 9-C. Bug fixes cover Major Partagaz Unique wording, Armor Shred raid quest counting, URoRRuR'R'R Conquest string, Bounty Hunter quest, loaned portraits, Imperial Remnant enemy tagging, and an Emperor Palpatine datacron soft lock.
Colonel Ward is a Light Side Support unit for New Republic squads led by Captain Carson Teva. She inflicts debuffs, dispels Stealth, marks enemies, and triggers out-of-turn assists. Her Zeta plus Omicron unique punishes attacks on Support and Healer allies with Evasion Down, cooldown increases, On the Run stacks, and Expose.
Grogu & Anzellans is a Light side Healer with Mandalorian, New Republic, and Unaligned Force User tags. The kit applies Off Balance, Force Influence, and Ability Block, equalizes Health, grants Heal Over Time, Dramatic Entrance, Retribution, and conditional New Republic benefits including Stun and Daze dispels. Marquee begins June 30th at 11am Pacific.
Asked about an omicron to return CLS to glory, the community manager said CLS is one of the best beginning-account characters, is one of the more balanced teams, and is in a perfect spot for the location in which it is used. He explicitly rejected the premise that every team should be viable at endgame.
Players pushed back that Ezra received a large refund while Merrin only received an omicron refund, with calls extending to Asajj as well. The community manager confirmed the decision was made above his level but said he is logging the feedback and a request for further explanation.
Upcoming kit changes update Gungan Phalanx's Omicron to Territory Wars with reduced values, gate Ezra Bridger (Exile)'s power behind a full Spectre squad with a kit rework, give GL Ahsoka counterattack True damage and Blind immunity, and restrict Merrin's Omicron to matches without Galactic Legends. Relic and Omicron investments on affected units will be reset and refunded.
A May the 4th celebration includes daily rewards, a web store calendar, a large inbox gift with shards, omicrons, zetas, and credits. Special crystal deals, returning and new Lightspeed Bundles, and bonus drop events are also available. A packed schedule of Era Assaults and Assault Battles runs from May 4th to May 18th.
Capital Games announced its 2026 Extra Life charity event series, supporting UC Davis Children's Hospital through Children's Miracle Network. Instead of one long stream, there will be multiple smaller streams throughout the year. Players can donate on Tiltify to receive in-game rewards like portraits, titles, and resources at $25, $50, and $100 donation tiers.
MeatheadMilitia will publish a Q/A Google Doc tomorrow (April 28) where players can submit questions about today's three forum documents. The doc will be posted in the EA forums, and questions about squad arena store, training mode iteration, and tag updates are already queued.
Four new characters are previewed: R5-D4, Zeb Orrelios (New Republic Pilot), Captain Carson Teva, and Snowtrooper Commander. Kit details for each, including abilities, synergies, and unique mechanics, are provided.
Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is receiving a major visual and functional refresh including updates to the Cantina interface, campaign restructuring with new battles and rewards, farming node adjustments, and economy changes. Several characters are also becoming farmable for the first time.
The May the 4th update introduces Cantina 2.0 with visual and content overhauls for Campaigns and Mods. Era system changes include increased levels, currency, and Relic conversion. Loaned Units will be added to Coliseum, and future updates will bring Overcharge, Era Arena, and a Training Mode replacing Squad Arena.
MeatheadMilitia indicated that a fix for the Phalanx Omicron, which is tied to a game mode that has been absent since November, is coming "soon." This response was given to a player expressing frustration about the prolonged delay in addressing the issue.
MeatheadMilitia confirmed the 4-LOM omicron was active in modes beyond its intended location, which is why some players felt it was hitting unexpectedly hard alongside Aphra and IG-90. The team is fixing it, and players are encouraged to file a bug report on the forum.
Inquisitor Barriss shards are now available from Dark Side Battles 4-C (Hard). Fragmented and Incomplete Signal Data have been added to Guild Events. Several bug fixes and adjustments were also implemented for various characters and game modes.
Several outstanding community asks got short status updates from MeatheadMilitia: the Phalanx omicron is coming soon, a Coliseum auto-fill toggle (or last-team-used default) will be suggested to the team, and Meathead is still personally pushing for a buy-all button in stores.
Meathead confirmed that more information about a potential Phalanx Omicron refund will be shared in a future post. He did not commit to specifics in the channel, only that the topic is being addressed and players should watch for an upcoming communication.
A developer post announces a rework for Satele Shan, addressing Grand Arena interactions with GL Rey. The update modifies her Special 02 and Unique 1 abilities, specifically enhancing her performance when all allies are Old Republic and adding Grand Arena-specific benefits. Players' Satele Shan will be reset for reinvestment.
When asked about timing for the Gungan Phalanx omicron rework, MeatheadMilitia said he would check on it. No release window was given, but the response confirms the rework is still on the team's radar and not silently shelved.
