Star Wars: The Old Republic: News Round-Up

Star Wars: The Old Republic has been busy the last couple of weeks.  So here’s a brief summary of what’s been happening over at SWTOR.

• Cartel Coins will be the currency of the free-to-play version of SWTOR.  Previous subscribers and purchasers of the game who are subscribed at the time the game is converted to free-to-play, will receive cartel coins crediting their game purchase and subscription time.
• Bioware has created a chart which differentiates between a subscription to the game and a free-to-play experience.  Basically, all stories are available to all players but free-to-play players will have limited access to the remainder of the game.
• Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia has been published and is available at fine book retailers near you.
• Game Update 1.5 is live on the test server and the new companion HK-51 is included in the update.
• Free-to-play preview video has been released … enjoy!

I’ll admit it, when SWTOR converts, I’ll be going back.  I love the gameplay in SWTOR and am looking forward to finishing up the stories.
