Star Wars: The Old Republic Free Weekend Starts On Thursday
Bioware wants to give everyone a chance to check out Star Wars: The Old Republic, so this weekend it is offering players an opportunity to play the game for free.
Starting Thursday, March 15 at 12:01 AM CDT and ending on Monday, March 19th at 2:00 AM CDT, interested participants can download and play the game free of charge, without any kind of payment information needed.
Bioware is directed those who want more information to www.starwarstheoldrepublic.com/weekendpass, but currently that page leads to a error page with a Wookie and a droid on it. I assume they are there trying to get the page fixed up.
If you decide you would like to partake, be sure to look at our guide on how to get started in The Old Republic.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
