Now, in an effort to combat pay to win, Kakao are claiming the game is not only going to require a purchase, but will also charge you a monthly recurring fee to play, much like World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XIV. They charged players for this, completely going against what they had claimed when players first purchased Unchained. Then a year later, they revealed their “Garden of the Gods” DLC. It only required a one-time purchase, though, with Gamigo promising you’d never have to pay a single cent ever again. ArcheAge: Unchained had a premium box price, meaning you had to purchase the game. ArcheAge is free to play and heavily pay to win. A discount can be obtained by purchasing subscriptions for longer periods of time.”įor those of you unaware, ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained have separate business models. The monthly subscription will be set at 9.99($,€) for 30 days. Also, any paid items will be purely cosmetic. This gives even more value to the subscription. Many of the previously paid benefits and Marketplace-only items will be automatically included for free or acquired through in-game methods with Manastorm Crystals.

“In order to remove the possibility to increase in-game power with real-life currency, we’ve opted for a monthly subscription method.

We’ve made some pretty significant changes to how the service will be provided, what will be available in the cash shop, and how various functions such as ArchePass and Patron will work”

“We’ve thought long and hard about the idea behind ArcheAge: Unchained and what is needed to fulfill your vision of what Unchained represents.

So, yesterday Kakao released a blog post over on the new ArcheAge website titled “reintroducing ArcheAge Unchained”
