Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) is an MMORPG that takes place after the events of the first two Knights of the Old Republic games. Featuring an in-depth storyline and high quality production, the game is now free-to-play with an optional subscription.

Story
Set over a thousand years before the tale of the movies, players can choose between joining the Sith Empire or the Galactic Republic in a time that peace seems to have vanished from the universe.

Features

►Adventure through a game galaxy that is more than 30,000 parsecs wide, traveling both near and far while you forge your own path with the light or dark side of the Force.

►Choose between the Galactic Republic or the Sith Empire in an epic galaxy spanning story that lets you travel from planet to planet, meeting a variety of characters, some of whom will become companions you can bring with you into battle.

►Rich, choice based stories. Will you embrace the dark side, or follow the path of the light? Regardless of your class or allegiance, your choices can affect your alignment and even your appearance.

►Play through the story line, then engage in heroic missions and improve your gear. You can even customize your gear’s appearance so you’re not stuck wearing a piece of armor just because it looks great.

►Companions will play an important role in your time in SWTOR. A player’s companions will passively carry out gathering and crafting tasks while the player goes about their business in the galaxy. Gathering will allow players and their companions to gather resources that can be used to craft various items. Crafting allows companions to create items that the player can even reverse engineer to figure out how to make better versions of them.

►Fans of the Star Wars franchise can unite in SWTOR to explore one of their favorite worlds alongside one another or they can savor the depth of such an expansive world for their own enjoyment. Either way you’re sure to enjoy the many space themed adventures ahead of you!
