BioWare continues to expand the locations that players will be able to check out in Star Wars: The Old Republic. This week BioWare updated the MMO's web site to show off yet another new planet addition; Alderaan. Fans of the Star Wars franchise most likely know the planet already as the adopted, and later destroyed, home of Princess Leia.

In the timeline of the MMO, Alderaan has actually withdrawn from the Republic and the planet is now in a massive civil war. Will House Organa survive? Well of course it does. Otherwise, Leia could not live to see her planet blown up by the Death Star. Such is life.
