Star Wars The Old Republic Weekend Pass Free Trial Starts Tomorrow


If you haven't had a chance to try out Bioware's Star Wars The Old Republic, you'll be happy to learn that Bioware will be opening the game up for a free trial tomorrow(1 PM) till Sunday May 20th(it probably ends a little later than that for us in South East Asia). This free trial doesn't require an invite... all you need is to go to the official Star Wars The Old Republic Weekend Pass page and click join now! Take note that this is not exactly a free weekend. More like a glorified demo that will restrict your character to level 15 max with some other limitations. I've listed the restrictions and limits below:


The following Game restrictions will be placed on your Weekend Pass Free Trial account for the duration of the trial:
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character cannot exceed level 15. The player will be notified via in-game notifications and chat message once they have hit the maximum level for the trial experience.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will only be able to play on their Origin World, Capital World, the Fleet, all Warzones, and in their first Flashpoint. A message box will appear if a character attempts to go outside of these areas.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will not be able to use general chat, trade chat, or PvP chat. The character will only be able to use local chat, group chat, guild chat, and reply to whispers.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will not be able to send or reply to mail by other trial characters. However, your character will be able to receive in-game mail during the trial.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will not be able to use the Galactic Trade Network or trade with other players.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will only be able to level their Crew Skills ranking to around 40.
  • A Weekend Pass Free Trial character will not be able to earn Legacy XP.
