WOW Trial?

Westwood · 3 Mar 2006 at 22:19

Hi guys. Thinking of trying WOW and just wondered if there was a trial period for the game that I could download? If not can you buy and download the game online or do you have to buy the boxed version?

Thanks a lot.

you have to buy the boxed version as far as i know

there is a us trial somewhere available to download, try googleing it, you can just edit a bit so it logs onto eu realms instead of default us

There isn't a generally available free trial, nor, I think, a downloadable version.

If you know someone who has the full version of the game then they might have got a "guest pass" with the game - they can lend you their CDs, and you can have 10 days of free gameplay using the guest key. Fileplanet did have an online trial for a while, but it wasn't available in the UK anyway.

I believe a PC magazine sometime ago had a short trial on it's DVDs.

Thanks for all your replies guys.

SgtTupac - Thats great. My friend has the game that I could use to install it. Would it be OK to have the guest pass thing?

Aren't you still stuck if the trial has finished...? Where can you get the download and key/serial to start the trial from?

You can get the US download from Fileplanet, but it's useless without a US guest key or WoW account.
