‘Betrayed’ Cinematic Trailer Reveals Epic New Story in the Next Digital Expansion to Star Wars: The Old Republic

BioWare, an Electronic Arts Inc. studio, and Lucasfilm today unveiled the world premiere of the new ‘Betrayed’ cinematic trailer, revealing a first look at the prequel story for the upcoming expansion Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ – Knights of the Eternal Throne. The new digital expansion will be available for download on December 2, free* to all subscribers of Star Wars: The Old Republic, and will offer an exciting starting place for new players to begin their saga.

Knights of the Eternal Throne puts the player at the center of their own explosive battle to rule the galaxy. As the Outlander, a veteran of the Great Galactic War, players will have the power to make their mark based on their light and dark side choices. Stakes are high as the player faces the most powerful villains in the galaxy including Emperor Valkorion and Empress Vaylin, as you lead the fight to take control of the Eternal Throne!

Ruling the galaxy offers expanded power and influence through the new Galactic Command system. Alone or with friends, players can ignite light and dark side battles, face all-new erupting confrontations known as Uprisings, and unlock powerful rewards. In the latest expansion, players will be able to customize their combat encounters with three challenge levels, giving everyone the option to play their way.
