The Zakuul system was located in the Unknown Regions in grid square D-13 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Zakuul system was mentioned in "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published with the Star Wars Galaxy Map on StarWars.com[1] on June 24, 2025. Both works were authored by Jason Fry.[2] Although "Star Systems of the Galaxy" initially placed the Zakuul system in grid square F-4,[1] the October 14, 2025[3] update to the appendix changed its grid square to D-13.[1]
The system originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity as the planet Zakuul,[4] which was introduced to[5] the BioWare[6] 2011 video game Star Wars: The Old Republic as part of its October 20, 2015 expansion Knights of the Fallen Empire.[5] Prior to the release of the expansion, Zakuul appeared in the same year's June 15 cinematic trailer "Sacrifice"[7] and by June 17 was also mentioned by name on the game's official website.[8]
