In Rise of the Hutt Cartel, players will explore a new storyline on the beautiful and vibrant new planet of Makeb.

As players progress through the new levels they will earn new gear and abilities along with access to new Elder Game content. As part of the experience, players will also be able to acquire new technological gear including Macrobinoculars and Seeker Droids, which take players on galaxy-spanning new missions to unlock valuable rewards.

In the midst of the ongoing war between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, a long-hidden sect of extremists has emerged, led by the enigmatic former hero of the Jedi Civil War - Revan. These “Revanites” are mustering an army with an apocalyptic plan that will leave the Republic and the Empire in ashes.

Best of all, Subscribers of Star Wars: The Old Republic can access and play all chapters of the evolving Knights of the Fallen Empire story for free.

Battle to rule the galaxy in Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ – Knights of the Eternal Throne, a bold digital expansion from BioWare. Be the Outlander and command a team of hand-picked allies as you face one of the most dangerous families in Star Wars™. Mother against daughter. Sister against brother. It’s a fight for control of the throne. You decide who will live, who will die and who will rule the galaxy. Fight to influence the galaxy for the light or dark side of the Force™!

War between the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire blazes across the galaxy. Crucial resources dwindle as piracy and crime escalate dramatically. Amid this chaos, the Alliance Commander has the chance to tip the scales in favor of either faction, committing their elite forces to decide the fate of the galaxy.

As the Sith Empire prepares to make a decisive strike against a newly-constructed Republic shipyard on the planet Corellia, members of the Dark Council see victory on the horizon and begin plotting against one another in anticipation of the spoils. Meanwhile, Republic forces must race against time to muster reinforcements from across the galaxy in order to defend Corellia from the Sith.

Free-to-Play, or F2P, is a play option that was introduced with Patch 1.5.0. Players who choose this option do not have to pay a monthly subscription fee. Characters can be played up to level 60, but there are gameplay and grouping restrictions. Any combination of these restrictions can be lifted through purchases from the in-game Cartel Market, which would automatically upgrade the account to Preferred status.

Free-to-play includes:

• 8 distinct class stories, each with three chapters across 12 planets
• Each planet has optional unique side planetary missions (aka 'quests') and exploratory quests, which are different on the Imperial and Republicfaction
• Repeatable heroics (2+ player content that can be completed solo), which are different on the Imperial and Republic faction
• Level 1-60 flashpoints (aka 'dungeons', 4-man group content with a solo version available)
• Warzones (player-vs-player content)
• Galactic Starfighter (space player-vs-player)
• Galactic strongholds (player housing)
• Space missions (solo space content)
• Rise of the Hutt Cartel and Shadow of Revan expansions

• 1Unlocking expansions and level 61-75
• 6How to upgrade an account?

Unlocking expansions and level 61-75[edit edit source]

For new players, access to levels 61-75 is obtained by subscribing for one month. All expansions and levels 61-75 will be unlocked for all characters and all new characters for the life of the account. This includes access to the three flashpoints that are a part of the expansions.

Players only need to subscribe for one month to unlock the current expansions forever. If players unsubscribe after one month, they will lose their subscriber perks and status, but will keep their expansions and ability to reach level 70. Once unsubscribed, players will become a 'preferred' player and will have access to more perks than a free-to-play player, but less than a subscriber.

Expansions[edit edit source]

Previous players may find that they already have access to some or all of levels 61-75:

Knights of the Fallen Empire: Access to levels 61-65 can only be obtained by subscribing for at least one month after October 2015. Players will receive all chapters for Knights of the Fallen Empire released until they unsubscribe; these chapters will be unlocked for the duration of the account. (Example: A player unsubscribes after chapter 10 is released. They will keep access to chapter 10 and levels 61-65 for the life of the account, but will not have access to chapter 11 onwards.) This expansion includes the Star Fortress flashpoint.

Knights of the Eternal Throne: Access to levels 66-70 can only be obtained by subscribing for at least one month after December 2016. Players will receive all chapters for Knights of the Eternal Throne. Note that the Galactic Command system, Dark vs. Light Rewards, and Uprisings are only available to subscribers.

Onslaught: Access to levels 71-75 can only be obtained by subscribing for at least one month after October 2019.

Free-to-play, preferred and subscriber differences[edit edit source]

Free To Play Mmorpg Online Games

Each of the limited options below can be opened up through the Cartel Market.

¹'Rewards' does not include credits, some reputation tokens, and XP gained from defeating the last boss. All players, even F2P, have unlimited access to these. 'Rewards' only include gear, decorations, mounts, pets, some reputation tokens, non-reputation tokens, and crafting materials. Note that players only get these rewards if they win the loot roll against other players. They can also get an unlimited number of these if they do it solo.

²Unlimited when grouped with, and queued by a subscriber. Otherwise subject to Solo Warzone limits.

³If a player already has a character with that species, they can still play with them as a Preferred player. Players can unlock any species for any class with Cartel Coins, credits, or getting a character of that species to level 50. Some customization options are locked for certain classes until unlocked using the previous methods. Subscribers can only make the following species for the following classes unless unlocked:

• Humans and Cyborgs: Any class

⁵The 5.1.2 Patch Notes mention 'Free-to-Play chat restrictions have been adjusted in order to help address third-party service advertisement spam.' We currently do not know that that means yet: we've seen multiple players around level 20 mention that they cannot access chat still.

⁶Those that subscribed between November 2015 and December 2016 get 1 extra character slot. Those that subscribed between December 2016 and now get another character slot.
