DC Universe Online Pricing revealed
SOE has announced the pricing structure for their upcoming MMO based on the popular DC Comics franchise. There had been rumors of free to play system similar to games such as DDO or Free Realms but that was apparently just that, a rumor. While the pricing itself is similar to many of the more mainstream MMO’s out there there was hope that the recent changes in revenue models would have sen a shift in pricing by this soon to be new entry into the MMO market space.
Sony Online Entertainment’s Scott Gulbransen has confirmed DC Universe Online will have a monthly subscription fee of $14.99, or basically $ 180 a year… ouch. This is only for the US market, our European friends will likely see a pricing update soon.
The more I see pricing structures like this the more I’d like to toss a bat-a-rang at someones head and knock some sense into their heads. You’ve seen how it worked for your own title Free Realms there SOE, why not do something similar here?
