Fighting is frequent and involves the use of either blasters, Force powers, or lightsabers, with opponents frequently getting impaled but no blood being shown.

The story line for the expansion plays basically the same, whether a players starts out on the former Republic side or the former Empire side.

The game presents players with choices that can be either good (the light side of the Force) or bad (the dark side), which can alter a player's appearance and influence non-playable characters. There's also a Cartel Marketplace, where real money is turned into cartel coins and used to purchase items that can appear in the game. Players can purchase costumes for their characters, which can be somewhat revealing. The game features the ability to team up with other players for missions or to go into player-vs.-player zones. There's a world-chat channel, which allows the comments of other players to be seen, and there are some shared areas, which could expose players to inappropriate content. Parents need to know that Star Wars: The Old Republic - Knights of the Fallen Empire is a downloadable expansion to Star Wars: The Old Republic, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) and is played online, requiring a monthly subscription.
