Zombies to invade Star Wars Galaxies in October

You apparently can't keep those zombies down, even in the Star Wars universe. The long running MMO Star Wars Galaxies is about to experience some undead action via Sony Online and LucasArts in an upcoming content update due out, naturally, in October. The update will be called (wait for it) Death Troopers.

In addition to having flesh-eating beasties in the game universe, this also marks the first time Star Wars Galaxies will have a tie-in to an official Star Wars novel. Del Rey was already planning to release the horror-themed novel Death Troopers by Joe Schreiber on October 13 but Sony Online and LucasArts got wind of the book and decided to do a new quest that related to the events in the novel. Now all we need is zombie Jar Jar somewhere and we are in.
