Want to learn more about the fictional city-planet known as Coruscant from the Star Was universe? Well, if you’re the kind of geek that loves sci-fi encyclopedias, then you’ll love this six-minute developer documentary for the upcoming Star Wars MMO.

So what do we learn about Coruscant in this new video? We learn that it plays a pivotal role in the MMORPG and that The Old Republic is taking a few liberties with how players will venture about the city and interact with other players throughout the city. Coruscant also works as a central hub, in a way, for the political agendas of the Republic and the driving force behind both the Sith and the Jedis.

Unfortunately little to no in-game play is shown, just mainly stills and pictures but I’m sure Star Wars fans won’t mind…they live for stills and pictures. You can check out the new dev doc below.
