BioWare's acclaimed take on the Star Wars canon, Knights of the Old Republic, is now available to download from Steam or Direct2Drive.

Penny Arcade Expo attendees visiting The Old Republic stand were offered a copy for free, but everybody else will need to pay £6.99 for the privilege.

Released in 2003 on Xbox (and later PC), Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic combined D&D role-playing with George Lucas' iconic universe.
