<p>PC MMORPG <em><a class="zem_slink" title="Star Wars: The Old Republic" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars%3A_The_Old_Republic" target="_blank" rel="wikipedia">Star Wars: The Old Republic</a></em> is set to receive new content via Game Update 1.7 in the form of the &#8220;Relics of the Gree&#8221; event and the Galactic Reputation system.</p>
<p>Developed by <a class="zem_slink" title="BioWare" href="http://www.bioware.com/" target="_blank" rel="homepage">BioWare</a>,<em> </em><em>Star Wars: The Old Republic</em> became free-to-play as of November 2012, and a press release has detailed what players can expect to find in the new content that comes with the latest update to the game.</p>
<p>Firstly, &#8220;Relics of the Gree&#8221; is a limited-time event that takes place from 12th to 26th February and which gives players the chance to &#8220;Discover the mysteries behind the Grey Secant, an ancient Gree starship that has suddenly appeared over Ilum’s Western Ice Shelf.&#8221; Rewards for players who aid the Gree race apparently include &#8220;powerful weapons and armor.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the new Galactic Reputation system &#8220;enables players to earn Reputation points by completing missions for factions such as the Gree, or for military divisions within the Republic and the Empire.&#8221; The system features six ranks for players to rise through: &#8220;Outsider&#8221;, &#8220;Newcomer&#8221;, &#8220;Friend&#8221;, &#8220;Hero&#8221;, &#8220;Champion&#8221;, and &#8220;Legend&#8221;. Also, Reputation points and ranks are &#8220;shared across all the characters within the same Legacy.&#8221;</p>
