In the Spirit of Easter, EA and BioWare are bringing the Force to you with Star Wars: The Old Republic going free to play this weekend. If you’ve yet to play the game and are looking to give it a try, this weekend is your chance. However, if you’ve participated in the past with an SW:TOR free pass, you’re out of luck.
No credit card or any sort of commitment is needed to play the game this weekend. A few restrictions apply though for the trial players:
- A Weekend Pass Free Trial character cannot exceed level 15.
- 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 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 not be able to use general chat, trade chat, or PvP chat.
- 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.
