Star Wars: The Old Republic news » Join us in our next Weekend Pass

Throughout the month of March, thousands of people began their personal Star Wars™ saga by taking part in the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Weekend Pass Free* Trial! We want to thank everyone who has taken part in the program so far, and we want to continue allowing those of you who are curious about the game to have the chance to experience The Old Republic™ for yourselves. That is why we are happy to announce that BioWare and LucasArts will be holding a third Weekend Pass Free Trial in the month of April!

The April Weekend Pass Free Trial will take place from Thursday, April 5th at 12:01AM CDT / 5:01AM GDT and concludes on Monday, April 9th at 2:00AM CDT / 7:00AM GMT. Players will be able to download the game client as soon as this Weekend Pass begins, and new players will be able to register up until 2:00AM CDT on Sunday, April 8th.

Just like our previous Weekend Pass Free Trials weekends in March:

• There is no payment or credit card required.
• You can play free for up to 4 full days (see detailed schedule below).
• Your trial characters will be waiting for you to claim upon purchase of the game and redemption of the official Game Product Registration Code at the Code Redemption Center.
• You will have the opportunity to experience the first fifteen levels of the game, explore the Origin Worlds for each of the eight character classes in the game, and maybe even visit your faction’s Capital World.
• You will also have the chance to experience Player-vs-Player Warzones, or join up with friends to battle through one of the many Flashpoints in the game.

As with our March Weekend Passes weekends, the April Weekend Pass Free Trial weekendswill only be available to individuals who haven’t taken part in any other free trials.
