A hotfix was deployed on June 4, 2025, to address an issue with the Focused Datacron for Temple Guard. Previously, it unlocked without upgrades. The fix ensures new acquisitions unlock at max level. Players who owned a 7-star Temple Guard at the time of the hotfix will receive the fully upgraded Datacron via inbox, as the automated release did not function as intended.

Today's hotfix updates Scorch's Zeta upgrade for "Following Protocol," adding a condition that if no Galactic Legend enemies are present, enemies receive 2 stacks of Damage Over Time for 2 turns at the start of each encounter.

Grand Moff Tarkin received an update, specifically designed to provide a secondary Dark Side Clone Trooper leader option, particularly for 3v3 Grand Arenas. His kit was revised for modern clarity, damage types standardized to Special, and his Basic, first Special, and Leader abilities gained new synergies with Dark Side Clone Troopers and Empire allies. A new 3v3 Omicron was added to his Leader ability.

A hotfix will be deployed in 20 minutes to address character ability localization and translation issues. This is a backend change focused on correcting text errors.

This update introduces CX-2 Arrives and makes Crosshair (scarred) available. Omicrons for 3v3 and 5v5 modes have been reduced in cost, with refunds issued. Several fixes and adjustments were made to ability descriptions and mechanics for various characters, including Appo and Lord Vader.

Capital Games is investigating two potential issues affecting Commander Appo. A bug with Appo's datacron has been confirmed and a fix is being implemented. The team is also investigating a potential issue with Appo's summon ability.

A visual issue has been identified in the Slice-A-Bundle for Non-USD players. The displayed discount math is incorrect, but the green price in the bottom right does include the applied discounts. The visual discount indicators will be removed until the issue is fixed.
