Player housing is still coming to Star Wars: The Old Republic, albeit slightly later than anticipated. But maybe the energetic city life of Coruscant isn't so much your thing. For those people, BioWare is offering a more rural existence in the Skywalker home planet of Tatooine, as shown in the latest video for the Galactic Strongholds expansion.

As a reminder, those that subscribe to Star Wars: The Old Republic before July 15 will receive Early Access to the new content when it opens up on August 19 and also receive additional bonuses in the form of a Nar Shadaa Sky Palace Stronghold. The expansion page also issues a reminder that players with Preferred Status will get access to the new content on September 16, while it officially launches to the public on October 14.

To check out Tatooine, watch the video below.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
