May 4 is coming, and if you say it out loud—“May the fourth”—you will will realize, in a sudden burst of clarity leavened with an internal chuckle at the wonderful cleverness of the modern marketing, that it is Star Wars Day. And at 11 am PT on that day, you will be given the opportunity to leap into Star Wars Battlefront and play it for free, for four hours.

The free trial will be available indefinitely, and assuming it works like other Origin trials, the four-hour limit is based on total playtime, and not a timer that starts counting down the moment you begin. (I've emailed EA to confirm this.) It includes access to the full base game, but not the Outer Rim DLC or any future expansions. Players who log in on Star Wars Day will be given 4444 in-game credits to spend, and there will also be a new Hutt Contract that will unlock the health-boosting Bacta Bomb Star Card.

If MMOs are more your thing, Star Wars: The Old Republic is also serving up some freebies, including access to the Knights of the Fallen Empire expansion through May 30, the M4-I6 Zakuulan Astromech Droid in-game pet for logging in between now and May 4, and double XP from May 3-10.

“This holiday is yours, but we all share with you the hope that this day brings us closer to freedom, and to harmony, and to peace,” Galactic Republic rep Leia Organa said in a statement that actually has nothing to do with May 4, but sounds like it might. “No matter how different we appear, we're all the same in our struggle against the powers of evil and darkness. I hope that this day will always be a day of joy in which we can reconfirm our dedication and our courage. And more than anything else, our love for one another.”

Details on EA's Star Wars Day offerings are available here. Ahead of the freebie fun, an update to Star Wars Battlefront will be rolled out at 11 pm PT on May 3 which will make “a host of fixes and updates to the game.” EA said the update should not result in extended downtime.

Will you be playing?
Should they be more generous? How?

Na, I think I will stick to playing Star wars battlefront 2 on may 4th as it is a actual battlefront game.

They should just give away some of the older starwars games like jedi academy or even dark forces. much better than a trial of a mediocre fps with great graphics.

I'll def be playing but I'll only be playing around with the cinematic tool by hattiwatti because I heard the PC crowd for battlefront is small.

But I'll pick up battlefront when it drops down its price tag.

Also it should be free for a day since you know may the 4th but damn 4 hours!?
