SWTOR Hitting Asian and Australia Shores on March 1st
Posted on 2012/02/16Come March and the much-anticipated Star Wars: The Old Republic will be released in Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand and Singapore. To be more precise, SWTOR will be launched in this part of the planet on March 1st. This date onwards, the gamers of the region would be able to play on the local servers. This is great news for the SWTOR lovers of the region as they had not the chance to play this immensely electrifying MMO on their own servers and had to pay extra bucks for that.
Players of the region currently who have active SWTOR accounts would be facilitated to request free character transfer for a limited period of time after the launch. The standard editions of SWTOR would cost 79.99 Australian Dollars (i.e. 389 Hong Kong Dollars, 64 Singapore dollars, and 89.99 New Zealand dollars).
Star Wars: The Old Republic is a role-playing MMO based in Star Wars Universe. The game was developed by BioWare Austin and BioWare Edmonton and the first launch date was announced on 21st October, 2008. The game was launched for Microsoft Windows platform on 20th December, 2011 and was accessible from all parts of USA and some parts of Europe. On today’s date, the game has a huge 1.7 million subscribers in those two regions.
With this huge fan base, it is to see now how that game performs in Australia and Asia. Pre-launch surveys and other reports clearly show that the game is going to earn accolades in these regions as well.
