Will Chrono Odyssey be free to play?

Will the next MMO Chrono Odyssey souls be free to play? This is always a big question when a new MMO is on the horizon. Some people have said in the past that the subscription -based games no longer succeed, despite the fact WoW and Final Fantasy XIV incredibly good. Others have the impression that MMO purchasing can become frustrating, due to monetization problems. However, it is a fairly fair criticism of this style of play. After all, monetization must come from somewhere.

Fortunately, we know what to expect from Chrono Odyssey, when it comes to what it is free to play, and No, it’s not going to play at all. There may possibly be free weekends or something, because it is quite common, but you will have to pay access.


No, Chrono Odyssey will not be free to play

It was confirmed that Chrono Odyssey will not be a free game to play, but will have a retail price. It makes sense, because it is something that Kakao games have done before. Before Pearl Abyss became the publisher and developer, Kakao Games published MMO Buy-to-Play. This means that we can probably expect at a price to buy the game, and no subscription either.

However, we will almost certainly have to buy the main updates of extensions / DLC when they occur, but we will have to see on this front. Most buys to play MMO require major extensions to be purchased, for example, Diablo 4.

There will be almost certainly cosmetic purchases and convenience articles. The major fear is that, since monetization has not been discussed in detail, there will be paid items, which is quite common in South Korean online games.

I personally agree with convenience articles / GO-MOINS in the cash shop, provided that the real game mechanisms are not slowed down to convince players to pay more money. It is a very predatory decision, and it is not the one I hope to see here. I am very excited for this MMO, even if I am bad in Soulslikes.

We know that he has an incredible character creation and fairly cool life skills options, but monetization? We are just in darkness as you are right now. However, we can tell you for sure that Chrono Odyssey is not free to play.
