How to Unlock Races Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR)
In Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) you can play as different species. Here's how to unlock them:
1. Free Species
All players can choose these species without any extra steps:
Human
Cyborg
Zabrak
2. Subscriber Species
If you're a subscriber you get access to more species for certain classes:
Chiss
Miraluka
Mirialan
Rattataki
Sith Pureblood
Twi'lek
Note: These species are initially only available for specific classes.
3. Unlocking Species Across All Classes
To play any species with any class you have two options:
Reach Level 50: Level up a character of the species you want to unlock to level 50. This unlocks that species for all classes in your Legacy.
Legacy Purchase: Buy the species unlock in the Legacy panel for 1,500,000 credits (subscribers only).
4. Cartel Market Species
Some species can only be unlocked by purchasing them:
Cathar
Togruta
Nautolan
To unlock these you need to buy them from the Cartel Market using Cartel Coins.
5. Important Considerations
Free-to-Play Limitations: Free players have limited species options and may need to subscribe or make purchases to access more.
Cartel Market Purchases: Species unlocks can be bought with Cartel Coins or sometimes with credits from other players through the Galactic Trade Network (GTN).
