BioWare accidentally revealed its Star Wars: The Old Republic announcement for E3 this weekend, and — spoiler alert — this could be a game changer.
The leaked page, which began, “A man can have anything… if he’s willing to sacrifice everything,” tells the players about a shake-up that will hit the primary storyline in October. It mentions a new major faction in the galaxy: the Empire of Zakuul. It also mentions that our characters are now called “Outlander, veteran of the Great Galactic War,” suggesting that we’re no longer a part of the Sith Empire or the Galactic Republic.
The next biggest reveal for players involved the release date and price of this expansion. According to the leaks, the expansion will be free for everyone who subscribes on October 27th, and those who subscribe between July 31st and October 19th will gain early access as well as special perks based off when they subscribed.
Officially, BioWare has said nothing about these leaks, but do look for more information on Tuesday along with a rumored CGI trailer from E3.
