This week's Friday Update is the latest in the series of Developer Dispatch videos, this time focusing on the inclusion of Taris as a playable planet in Star Wars: The Old Republic.

For the uninitiated, Taris was a Coruscant-like metropolis planet, which also served as the player's first destination in the original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The planet was subsequently razed from space by the fleet of the Sith Empire under the command of Sith Lord Darth Malak, who was seeking to destroy Jedi Knight Bastila Shan. 300 years have passed since then, and Taris is making its return in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
