Brace yourselves, Holotable heroes—this one’s spicy. The Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes update for August 6, 2025 is live, and it’s packed tighter than a Jabba vault.

Let’s break down everything you need to know from the latest patch—including new node placements, character accelerations, and developer notes that read like they were written during a game of sabacc. What’s New: Hard Node Shuffle and Accelerated Characters Scorch Joins Dark Side Hard 9-D (with TIE Dagger) If you’ve been farming Scorch, it’s time to head to Dark Side Hard Node 9-D, where he now resides alongside the TIE Dagger.

Depa Billaba Joins the Fight in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes – Light Side Reinforcements Just Got Real
If you thought your Jedi roster in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes was looking a little too calm and composed, it’s time to stir things up.
