As Star Wars: The Old Republic is anticipating its own release the original Star Wars MMO, Galaxies, is finally nearing its end. Star Wars Galaxies was released in 2003 and today still has a devoted following. But today Sony announced that servers will shut down on December 15th. Sony released this statement:
"The shutdown of SWG is a very difficult decision, but SOE and LucasArts have mutually agreed that the end of 2011 is the appropriate time to end the game," the companies said in a statement. "We are extremely grateful to all of the SWG fans. We have had the rare opportunity to host one of the most dedicated and passionate online gaming communities, and we truly appreciate the support we've received from each and every one of you over the course of the past eight years."
