Star Wars: The Old Republic coming to Oz in March
BioWare announces that its first foray into the MMO space is slated for release on March 1 in Australia.
After months of uncertainty Aussie Star Wars fans have finally been given the news they have been eagerly awaiting: an Australian release date for Star Wars: The Old Republic. In a posting on the official Star Wars: The Old Republic forum, BioWare senior online community manager Stephen Reid announced that the game is targeted for release Down Under on March 1.
Ried did note that the date could slip back, citing server stability for existing players as BioWare's number one priority.
Aussie Star Wars aficionados who have already imported the game from North America will also be pleased to hear that BioWare is investigating ways to import characters over to local servers when Star Wars: The Old Republic launches in Australia.
Developer BioWare is no stranger to the Star Wars universe, having crafted the critically acclaimed Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic franchise. Star Wars: The Old Republic was officially released in North America on December 18, but it was delayed in regions like Australia due to BioWare wanting to control the influx of users hitting the servers on day one. While the reviews for Star Wars: The Old Republic yet to land, initial fan response has been positive and analysts are looking at it to steal a good chunk of World of Warcraft's user base.
