Star Wars: The Old Republic celebrates its 11th year anniversary and to say that a lot has happened would be an understanding. Some of the latest changes include the launch of the game's eighth expansion early this year, and also the Update 7.2 released early this month which introduced a new planet.
Keith Kanneg and the SWTOR team revealed in a post that despite the challenges, they were able to adapt and move forward with meaning and purpose. It helped them make sure to focus on what made the game good while also admitting that there are things that still need improvements.
To celebrate the new milestone, here are some anniversary specials that everyone can enjoy:
- Double XP Event starts today until December 27.
- 50% off Pets and Companions from now until December 27.
- 50% off Toys and Flair in the Cartel Market from December 28 to January 4.
