Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes – Temple Guard Hotfix Finally Deploys (and It’s About Time)

If you’ve been staring at your Temple Guard in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes wondering why he’s less “noble Jedi protector” and more “broken training droid,” you’re not alone. EA just dropped a much-needed hotfix on June 5, 2025, aimed at calming the unrest in the Force — or at least fixing a few inventory-related headaches.

Let’s break down what happened, what’s fixed, and what it all means for your holotable strategy (and your digital sanity).

🚨 The Temple Guard FDC Drama: What Went Wrong?

Here’s the short version: players were supposed to receive a Temple Guard FDC (Fully Developed Character) after meeting specific in-game conditions. But for many, that character came in slightly undercooked — as in, Level 0 undercooked.

Imagine unboxing a rare Jedi Knight only to realize he forgot how to hold a lightsaber. That was basically the vibe. Naturally, chaos ensued. Forums were lit, Reddit was ablaze, and even the Jedi Council would’ve been concerned.

🛠️ What This Hotfix Actually Does

In the hotfix deployed on June 5, 2025, the developers at Capital Games confirmed that:

  • A Level 15 Temple Guard FDC will now be delivered straight to the inbox of every player who was eligible.
  • Multiple Temple Guard FDCs in your inventory? Totally normal, don’t panic. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature — at least for now.

If you already received a Temple Guard FDC but it was sitting at Level 0 (likely looking embarrassed in your character roster), the fix might not apply retroactively to that version. But the dev team knows some of you already leveled up that glitched version and are currently discussing next steps for those players. Fingers crossed for some bonus resources or upgrade materials to even things out.

🤔 Why This Matters for Min-Maxers and Collectors

The Temple Guard isn’t just another background character with a flashy hood. As a unit, he brings utility to Galactic Republic and Jedi comps, especially when paired with characters like Luminara or Mace Windu (R.I.P. synergy logic). With the hotfix ensuring he comes pre-leveled at 15, it saves time, credits, and a lot of groaning for anyone trying to grind out usable light side squads.

Plus, if you’re the kind of player who likes their inventory neat and alphabetized (we see you), knowing that multiple versions are “okay” removes the need for late-night forum posts questioning your sanity.

🧮 What Should You Do Now?

Here’s your mini-mission briefing:

  1. Check your inbox in Galaxy of Heroes — that Level 15 Temple Guard FDC should be waiting.
  2. Ignore the duplicates — multiple versions are fine for now.
  3. Don’t level up the Level 0 version (if you haven’t already) — just wait. The devs are evaluating what to do for those who already did.
  4. Watch for more updates — further actions might include compensations or merging mechanics.

Also, if you’ve got a gambling itch, now’s the time to place your bets on whether the next update buffs his kit or quietly removes him from all relevant meta conversations.

🎮 Final Thoughts: Clean-Up on Jedi Aisle 5

While it’s not the galaxy’s most dramatic bug — looking at you, invisible Darth Maul back in the day — this Temple Guard issue was one of those classic Galaxy of Heroes moments where a small hiccup causes disproportionately large waves. Thankfully, this hotfix sets things (mostly) right.

It’s not every day you get a Level 15 Jedi bodyguard handed to you, even digitally. So take the win, check your inbox, and prep your squads — because when it comes to SWGOH, the grind never ends, but sometimes, the devs actually help out.
