A developer announced an investigation into reported issues with the Power for Hire datacron set. Updates will be provided on the same forum post as more information becomes available.

MeatheadMilitia clarified that a 5000 reward players received was compensation for the Coliseum stalemate issue many players ran into before a fix was deployed. It is not a new event drop or a general giveaway, just a make-good for the prior bug.

Asajj Ventress (Dark Disciple) is now farmable from Dark Side Battles 9-B. CC-1119 "Appo" has been added to the Accelerated Characters list. Several bug fixes address character abilities, Datacron descriptions, and event mechanics, with some material refunds to follow.

MeatheadMilitia confirmed the upcoming game update is on track to deploy on time. Contents will be disclosed after the patch goes out, not before. A push notification players received was tied to this same update.

The team is aware of several issues concerning the character Dedra. Specifically, quests for winning battles with Dedra, the counting of "Undermine" debuffs, and Dedra's Unique ability not applying to ISB allies in Coliseum are under investigation.

A hotfix was released to address Coliseum difficulty adjustments, primarily impacting Levels 3-6. The development team will monitor these changes and appreciates player feedback.

Capital Games plans to reduce the difficulty of Coliseum content in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. This adjustment aims to improve the progression pace for Free-to-Play players. Balance testing will occur next week, with changes expected to release shortly after.

Capital Games investigated a visual glitch affecting the Data Privacy toggle. They confirmed it was a display-only issue on certain devices, making it appear the setting was 'ON' when it was not. Actual privacy settings on the server remained unchanged and reflected the player's choice.

Today's update announces new farm locations for Yoda and Chewie shards in Light Side Battles 9-C, replacing Baze Malbus, who moves to Light Side Battles 5-F. It also fixes a Storm Trooper Luke Omicron cost, adjusts Vane's offense gain, and makes Smuggler's Run III unshared.

The Smuggler's Run 3 event is incorrectly marked as Shared. Instead of a hotfix, the team will run the event an additional time and apply a fix in the next update.

Today's SWGOH update makes IG-90 shards farmable from Cantina Battles 8-A. The update also addresses various character bugs, including issues with Stormtrooper Luke, IG-90, Krennic, Crosshair, Paploo, Satele, Maul (Hate-Fueled), Kleya, Corrupted Translation, Luthen, and Grand Master. Several description updates and Conquest-related fixes are also included.

Missing Omicrons for Dark Trooper Moff Gideon from the Lightspeed Bundle have been distributed to affected players. This resolves the issue where the Omicrons were not initially granted.

A hotfix was released to address an issue affecting Vel's Era Challenge. This update focused on resolving a specific in-game problem.

Today's update focuses on backend data improvements, adjustments and fixes for the new player experience, and a resolution for the previously identified IPD issue. This update primarily addresses underlying technical aspects of the game.

Capital Games investigated 4LOM due to a community report and found three issues. His Override Programming ability references the wrong character, his Territory Battle omicron abilities work outside the game mode, and his Bonus Protection is calculated incorrectly. The team is exploring fixes and will consider balance implications.

The team is aware that the Vel Marquee Quest tracking is not working properly and is actively investigating the issue. Reports from players about this problem have been received.

Capital Games has identified and is testing a fix for the Imperial Probe Droid (IPD) issue. The fix will be scheduled for a future release. The team is also exploring a make-good for affected guilds, with no further details available yet.

The Dark Trooper Moff Gideon Lightspeed Bundle was missing Omicron upgrades. Players who purchased the bundle will receive the missing Omicrons as soon as possible.

Developer updates confirm the arrival of R9 in two weeks, a fix for 3v3 GAC Omicron issues in mid-March with reimbursements, a planned redo of the Knightfall event, and compensation for affected Coaxium Heist players.

Six new units are now available in Chromium Packs and Shipments, including Stormtrooper Luke and Darth Vader (Duel's End). Stormtrooper Luke is also farmable on Dark Side Battles 9-A, and Wrecker (Mercenary) has accelerated shard drops. Several bug fixes for abilities, raid mechanics, and Datacron effects were implemented.
