Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees — Publish 17: "New Player Tutorial" - ↑Theopening crawl ofStar Wars Galaxies:An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events ofStar Wars: Episode IVA New Hope, and additionally,Serji-X Arrogantus, whodied inStar Wars (1977) 10—the events of whichThe New Essential Chronology dates to0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion ofStar Wars Galaxies must be set in thatyear. Furthermore, in the gameRuwan Tokai references thedestruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, andStrongholds of Resistance also places the events ofGalaxies'Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in1 ABY. Lastly, whileChapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features theBattle of Hoth—dated to3 ABY byThe New Essential Chronology—the developers havestated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events ofStar Wars Galaxies must span from 0ABY to around 1 ABY.
