BioWare to run "double XP weekends" over the weekend

In the run up to the release of Star Wars: The Old Republic’s first expansion, The Rise of the Hutts, BioWare will be running double XP weekends to help users get characters up to level 50 that bit faster.

The new expansion, aside from adding a new planet and faction story line, will be increasing the level cap to 55. These double XP events begin ”mid-March and continue through early April.”
