BioWare and LucasArts have today granted early access for current subscribers to the new Free-to-Play Star Wars: The Old Republic digital expansion, Galactic Starfighter.

This second expansion introduces 12v12 Player-vs-Player (PvP) free-flight dogfighting and factional battles. Anyone who becomes a subscriber will be able to jump right into Galactic Starfighter and become part of the factional combat and free flight PvP experience (no minimum character level requirements apply). In addition to gaining early access to Galactic Starfighter, subscribers will receive exclusive rewards, including custom paint jobs, two pilot suits and two titles.

Preferred Status Players will be granted access to Galactic Starfighter on January 14, before the Digital Expansion becomes available to the public beginning on February 4.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a Free-to-Play MMO set thousands of years before the classic Star Wars movies.
