IGN writes: "Yesterday LucasArts and BioWare finally announced their long-awaited massively-multiplayer online game, Star Wars: The Old Republic. Set a short time after the events in the Knights of the Old Republic games, the new game will let players join sides in the war between the Republic and the Empire. A couple of weeks ago, we had the chance to head down to Austin for an exclusive look at the game. Though it's still too early for the team at BioWare to give us many specific gameplay details, we came away with lots of information about their overall philosophy of design and some of the key systems they hope to use to bring the BioWare roleplaying experience into the world of online games.
We kicked off our week of coverage by first looking at the way BioWare hopes to use story to drive the action, both in terms of the individual player narratives and the shared experiences driven by the game's social nature. Today, we're going to spend some time examining the overall history of the galaxy, exploring the two factions and the moral issues that players will face."
EA is nearing an agreement to move the ongoing development and operation of MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic from BioWare to third-party studio Broadsword Online Games, IGN has learned. The move is intended to allow BioWare to focus on Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
A new update for Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming out on PC and the patch notes provide us with an in-depth look at all the new changes.
I loved this game and have played since launch but don't let this article fool you, this game is a step above life support. While they are still technically updating the game, the updates are few and far between and there is a significant lack of quality control, so many little bugs that have been present for years.
SWTOR players, get ready for a new month of exciting in-game events! Here's what's coming up in January 2023.
