The Free To Play, Microtransaction Model
Mar '0931
During my time at the Game Developers Conference, I came across a few developers who were planning on using the free to play with microtransaction model. While this type of business model isn’t new, even to the United States; it isn’t something that is used as wide as the basic subscription model that most large developers and publishers use. The free to play model appears like a more secure revenue stream than the standard monthly subscription model.
