While the galaxy hunted treasure in the Outer Rim, darkness crept into its very heart…
As the Hutts clashed over Jabba’s legacy, the Black Sun Syndicate struck deep into the Core. On Coruscant’s lower levels, a wave of coordinated attacks shattered Hutt control. Prominent Hutt lords were assassinated in their private estates, their strongholds seized, and their influence extinguished overnight. Imperial safehouses, New Republic security offices, and entire civilian districts were overrun in the same strikes—agents, officers, and innocents alike dragged into the shadows or vanished without a trace. With surveillance grids collapsing, Black Sun insignia now scar the ruins like a warning.
The Night Prince, a ruthless figure within Black Sun’s hierarchy, is believed to be orchestrating the campaign.
The Night Prince has emerged.
And Coruscant trembles beneath his shadow.

The Shadow War has reached Coruscant…
Episode IV takes us to Coruscant, where every faction reels from the bold strike of a rising crime lord within the Black Sun Syndicate. Known only as the Night Prince, this ruthless figure has targeted three critical locations at the heart of the galactic capital: the 500 Republic, the Undercity, and the Uscru Entertainment District. These power centers now form the stage for the conflicts to come. Each faction must decide—stand together to stop the Black Sun, or exploit the chaos for their own gain as the galaxy teeters on the brink.
