On December 20, 2011, Star Wars: The Old Republic was released. The game by Bioware launched with huge expectations but failed to fully convince many players. Nevertheless, the game managed to secure a place in the market.
Currently, around about 1 million people worldwide are playing SWTOR, which is definitely a respectable number. And a lot is planned for 2015, as Bioware boldly claims.
In addition, the new Star Wars films and their trailers will be released throughout the year. This will create a hype around Star Wars, which the MMORPG could ultimately benefit from.
When people are caught up in Star Wars fever, they might check back into SWTOR and see the many improvements the game has received since its release and play it again. That is at least the hope of the developers. Whether it will be fulfilled remains to be seen. Darion gives you his assessment of the past, the current situation, and the future of the online role-playing game in the video.
