We’ve made several announcements about a Warhammer Online Trial. First was about a limited trial offered by iGames. Second, was a refer a friend trial which is also limited. Third, a trial offered by Mythic through Fileplanet. Finally, Mythic announces an official 100% free trial.

Boy did Mythic go through a lot of trouble passing out those trials slowly. What happened in return? They lost a bulk load of potentional subscribers. Their subscriber base dropped under 500,000. I don’t ever recall hearing them ever hitting the 1 million mark. It was a very big disappointment considering I expected this to be the next big MMORPG second to WoW.

Potential North American and Oceanic players should head to the official trial starter page, which includes links to a quick start guide, list of system requirements, cinematic trailer, and 41MB game installer. European players can head directly to War-Europe.com and create their trial account. Anyone wishing to upgrade free trial accounts can do so by purchasing a retail copy from their favorite game shop and following these simple steps. Mythic also put together an official free trial FAQ page which should answer any other questions you might have.

Since the enormous 1.2 patch dropped earlier this week, now seems like a great opportunity for anyone sitting on the fence to give WAR a shot for free. Additionally, the game is currently going for $14.00 + $3.99 shipping on Amazon and $6.6+ $3.99 “used“. I don’t quite understand how you can sell a used MMORPG, but good luck and enjoy.
