Producer on Sony Online Entertainment's Star Wars Galaxies Tony "Teesquared" Tyson, has posted a producer's letter on the official SWG website that mentions a few noteworthy additions in store for the long-running sandbox title.

He also takes a brief moment to tease some new content in the works, hinted at in the screenshot above. The letter talks about everything from Galactic Civil War and profession tweaks, to no-trade removal, to a new rare loot system.

"The Rare Loot System will allow us to add some really cool loot to the game that players will have a chance to loot off of any mob they encounter. There are restrictions however. The restrictions are in place so that farming mobs or generally killing trash mobs (AOE FTW) won't give you a chance to get this new loot. You have to play the game and fight challenging mobs to earn a chance to find this loot," Tyson says.
