What’s the Contest About? 6m57s
The goal is simple: capture the beauty of one of five select locations in SWTOR and submit your best screenshot. No, you don’t need to be Ansel Adams—just fire up your game, turn off the interface (Alt + Z), and find that perfect in-game moment. The SWTOR team is looking for submissions from the following iconic locations:
- Ziost
- CZ-198
- Section X
- Minboosa District
- The Black Hole
If your screenshot makes the cut, it will be turned into a Stronghold decoration! That’s right, your artwork could grace the homes of players across the galaxy.

How to Enter f2e3q
If you’re thinking, “This sounds awesome!”—and it is—you can enter by emailing your screenshots to [email protected]. But don’t just send any old snapshot—there are a few guidelines to follow:
- No player characters in the image (but NPCs are allowed).
- UI must be turned off (Alt + Z).
- No cinematics (we see you, cutscene ninjas).
- No external editing—it’s got to be au naturel, straight from the game.
- Image resolution should be 1920×1080 or higher.
And don’t forget, only one image per location per email! If you’re planning on submitting for multiple locations, send separate emails for each one.
What Can You Win? 4b6p3y
If your screenshot is chosen, you’ll not only get the honor of being featured in-game, but you’ll also receive a gilded version of your winning image, reserved just for you. Fancy, right? The regular versions of the decorations will be available for all players via the Anniversary event vendor in December, but the gilded versions? Those are for the winners only!
