Yes I was there at Eurogamer when the release date was FINALLY announced. I also had a chance to play the intro story for the Jedi Knight and try out PvP (Huttball). A full review will be here this week but for now, what do you need to know?
When is it out?
December 20th North America and 22nd Europe
How much will it cost to play?
Firstly, you get 30 days free time which is nice but after that you’ll need a subscription. But fortunately it’s pretty reasonable.
- 1 Month Subscription: $14.99 (£8.99/€12.99)
- 3 Month Subscription: $13.99 per month (one-time charge of $41.97/£25.17/€35.97)
- 6 Month Subscription: $12.99 per month (one-time charge of $77.94/£46.14/€65.94
What if I pre-ordered?
Those who have pre-ordered the game and entered their pre-order code on StarWarsTheOldRepublic.com are eligible for Early Game Access. If you haven’t yet reserved your copy of the game, be sure to visit our store or click the link in the sidebar and secure your copy before stocks run dry (and that is a very real possibility)
