The Old Republic has second free-to-play weekend

March 21, 2012 by Mat Growcott

If you were busy last weekend, you’ll be able to play The Old Republic for free this weekend as well.

So, you've waited to try out The Old Republic since launch late last year, you never got invited to the Beta and you're too cheap to just go for a subscription. Then the greatest thing happens: The Old Republic has a free-to-play weekend. But, as is typical, your partner's cousin is getting married and didn't think to check the schedule for online MMOs. 

So you give up on your dream of ever playing The Old Republic and go to the wedding, shooting evil looks at the bride throughout the ceremony in the hopes that she gets the damn point for future weddings (an inevitabilty really). If this sounds like the situation you were in last weekend, you'll be happy to know that Bioware are hosting a second free-to-play weekend this week from Friday to Monday and you're invited.

This next free-to-play weekend is not open to people who played last weekend. Make sure to give yourself enough time to download the game (it's15GB at least) as you can't download the client until the trial has begun.
