BioWare has announced their MMO, Star War: The earlier Republic, will be free-to-play beginning this November. The free-to-play feature gives gamers entry to the very first 50 levels and all eight playable and character classes. It will have some limitations with the free-to-play model. Gamers who definitely are playing the free-to-play SWTOR model can purchase items they lack with Cartel Coins.


A regular membership option will still be intended for those that would like to access higher-level content and unlimited game access.

"Players want flexibility and choice. The subscription-only model presented a significant barrier for most individuals who wanted to join The Old Republic™ universe," said Matthew Bromberg, GM of BioWare Austin.

SWTOR go one sale this August for about $15, including a one-month trial offer.

BioWare has reported a stable decline of subscriptions for SWTOR since its release in late 2011. Many have speculated the MMO would eventually be a complimentary-to-play game. Are you currently surprised by their announcement?
