BioWare has deployed a brand new video for Star Wars: The Old Republic, which focuses on the Jedi Consular character class, and presents the variety of ways players can develop its powers.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is shaping up to be one of the biggest online game releases of the year, with BioWare finally set to deploy it in North America and Europe on December 20, this year.

We’ve already seen quite a lot of videos with the game, including some showing off its high level Operations (raids) or some of its classes.

Now, the newest footage showcases the Jedi Consular, a Republic unit that can manipulate the Force to revive fallen allies or hide themselves from their enemies and become stealth assassins.

As you can see in the video above, the Consular can be used in a variety of ways, depending on the preferred play style of the player, by upgrading certain skills and unlocking new powers.
