NCsoft announces new MMO ’starter packs
Written by andy on May 14th, 2008 in Gaming.
NCsoft has announced the release of "starter packs" - a new range of retail products for its major MMO franchise titles, including City of Heroes, City of Villains, Guild Wars and Lineage II.
These "starter packs" will be sold at retailers for GBP 1.99 and will provide a game and a two week subscription intended as an introduction to MMORPGs. Consumers who decide they want the full game can then return to the retailer and purchase the whole product.
"In an ever increasingly digitally orientated retail environment, encouraging players to return to retail is a win-win for both outlet and publisher."
A "starter pack" will also be released for Richard Garriott’s Tabula Rasa later this year.
