It’s another day in the digital galaxy, which means another Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes hotfix has dropped—this time on May 22, 2025—and Scorch is officially back on protocol. Mostly. Sort of. This latest patch gives Scorch’s Unique Zeta ability a subtle-but-significant buff while tackling some tricky bugs that had the clone trooper eating more True Damage than a tauntaun in a Hoth snowstorm. It’s not a game-changer for everyone, but for those keeping an eye on GL meta balance and clone synergy, there’s a lot packed into this bite-sized update. Let’s dive into the update notes and see what got scorched. Scorch’s “Following Protocol” Zeta Just Got Meaner (But Smarter) The biggest headline from Hotfix 5-22-2025 is a Zeta upgrade for Scorch’s Following Protocol Unique ability. Here’s the new flavor text for the added Zeta effect: If there are no Galactic Legend enemies: At the start of each encounter,…

The game won’t load. It’s like the Force just said, “Not today.” Before you start launching lightsabers across the room, take a breath—there’s a workaround that just might save your galactic ambitions. The Dreaded “Unable to Get into Game” Issue It’s been making the rounds—players are reporting that they simply can’t get into Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes (SWGOH). It’s not that the game has joined the Dark Side (well, not entirely), but it seems some glitch in the system is keeping players out. The development team is already investigating the issue, but while they figure out how to patch it up, there’s a nifty little workaround that can help you get back to battling…

When it comes to explosive gameplay, RC-1262, better known as Scorch, is about to shake things up in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes.

If you’ve been waiting to bolster your Dark Side Clone squad, Scorch is exactly the kind of heavy hitter you need. Who is RC-1262 ‘Scorch’?

SWGOH Grand Moff Tarkin Update: New Dark Side Synergies and Abilities Explained
There’s nothing like a bit of fear to keep the local systems in line—especially when Grand Moff Tarkin is calling the shots. The latest update to Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes brings a host of improvements to Tarkin’s abilities, making him a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, particularly when teamed up with the newly introduced Dark Side Clone Troopers. If you were wondering what this means for your 3v3 GAC strategy, let’s just say you might want to reconsider leaving Tarkin on the sidelines. Tarkin Gets a New Look: Special Damage and Synergy Overhaul One of the most notable changes is that all of Tarkin’s abilities now deal Special damage, moving away from the mix of Physical and Special that previously defined his kit. This makes his damage more predictable and allows for better scaling with Potency, which—spoiler alert—gets a massive boost in this rework. His Basic…

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes – May the 4th Celebration Is a 2-Week Party of Shards, Credits, and Chaos

🛠️ SWGOH April 2025 Update: Forced Client, Bundle Slicing, and Bug Squashing
It’s update time in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, and things just got a little… slicier.
