TOR TV: The Best of HK-47

Alle the talk about our new legacy companion HK-51 made me exited, so I thought it would be apropiate to relive some of the greate moments we had with his great grand farther HK-47.

PC Games already had an article about our all time favorite “hunter killer” droid last week, and we did a “Know your lore” article about him back in 2009. You can check it out here, if you need to brush up on your lore.

HK-47 was a Hunter-Killer assassin droid and Jedi hunter constructed by Revan towards the end of the Mandalorian Wars to kill those who Revan believed would destabilize the galaxy. Revan gave up the droid shortly before his redemption, and HK-47 went from owner to owner, many of whom he slew himself, before being unwittingly reunited with his master, but that’s all story. You can read much more about that your self here.
