Trion Worlds has announced that its upcoming MMORTS End of Nations is to be free-to-play.

“There’s no time limit on access, and all players can play the game end to end for free,” writes Trion. Instead, the company will offer a limited collector’s edition at retail and a digital collector’s edition.

As to how the game will be monetised, Trion says that players can also choose to pay an optional monthly subscription fee to receive “extra value and convenience”, but has not yet outlined what these services will be.

On the game’s website, Trion states, “It will not be possible for players to buy their way to success.”

“The optional subscription is all about value, but not about gameplay advantage.”
