Sergeant Boom-Boom is first mentioned in the 2011 BioWare–LucasArts MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic in two companion conversations between a Smuggler player and Corso Riggs—"The Peace Brigade" and "In Harm's Way." The weapon was originally going to be mentioned by Riggs in "Just Desserts," a Smuggler mission on the planet Corellia, but the section of dialogue that contained the mention was removed from the final game.
