*Assuming you only like leveling up to 20 out of a possible 85 character levels. Well hey, it's a start, right? Blizzard revealed earlier today their World of Warcraft Starter Edition that allows players a chance to experience the MMORPG up through 20 character levels worth of content.
There are three ways to get started on your adventure, including visiting WorldOfWarcraft.com, getting an invite from a friend, or using any of the trial codes included in game purchases or physical time card purchases. Blizzard has released a handy FAQ that details exactly what is limited to you as a free player.
Once you hit level 20, your character stops earning experience and cannot progress any further, but they can continue to play to the best of their abilities. To experience more of the game, simply upgrade online or pick up a copy of the game from retail outlets.
