The Old Republic gets pre-launch guild program

BioWare has launched a pre-launch guild program for Star Wars: The Old Republic. Community members have already begun establishing guilds amongst themselves, so Bioware decided to give the community official tools to establish their guilds and reserve names.

When The Old Republic launches, you’ll be able to import your guild directly into the game, subject to availability and meeting certain criteria.

BioWare said: “Every guild gets its own guild mini-site on www.StarWarsTheOldRepublic.com, complete with information about the guild, its recruitment status, and its own public and private forums.

“Create or join a guild now and you’ll have the opportunity to have your own space to socialize and organize before the game launches. Every guild is automatically entered into the searchable guild database, which makes it easy for players to find their ideal guild. Get your guild together early and get ready for The Old Republic.”

Sounds like the community is already off to a roaring start. We’ll have to see how the full game turns out.

Thanks to CVG for the info.
