<p>Prepare yourself, meatbags. HK-51 is coming to <em>Star Wars: The Old Republic.</em></p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a long time coming, that&#8217;s for sure, but Bioware has finally announced that everyone&#8217;s favorite Hunter Killer (HK) assassination droids will be included in a future update.</p>
<p>HK-51 is the later model of fan favorite HK-47, who first featured in Bioware&#8217;s award winning Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.</p>
<p>So, how can players recruit the character? The trailer (which you can watch <a href="http://www.swtor.com/info/news/news-article/20120716" target="_blank">here</a>) mentions &#8216;scores&#8217; of the droids locked away in an ancient ice base. To get their hands on HK-51, players will no doubt undertake a gruelling quest to break into the facility, and claim their prize.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ready to serve, Master,&#8221;</p>
