Star Wars: The Old Republic Finally Gets a Release Date

You’ve probably been waiting a long time for this, so I’ll just say it. The release date has been scheduled for December 20th, 2011 for the US, and December 22nd, 2011 for Europe.

Speaking at the 2011 Eurogamer Expo in London, England to a room full fans and press alike, Bioware also announced the pricing model(s) for the game. When you buy the game, you’ll be given the first month free, then can renew with one of the following subscriptions:

-1 Month Subscription: $14.99 (£8.99/€12.99)
-3 Month Subscription: $13.99 per month (one-time charge of $41.97/£25.17/€35.97)
-6 Month Subscription: $12.99 per month (one-time charge of $77.94/£46.14/€65.94)

So there it is. The game finally has a release date, and pricing model.

To be honest though, I’m kind of sad that The Old Republic is coming out in 2011. With Skyrim, Saints Row 3, Uncharted 3, Batman: Arkham City, and Battlefield 3, I won’t have the time, or money, to play it for a while.

But, for those who do have the time/money,  I’m sure that this is great news.
