DC Universe Online goes f2p on Tuesday

We had posted news on Sony Online Entertainment's decision to convert DC Universe Online to a free to play MMO game back in September. First, SOE had plans to go f2p with DC Universe Online in October. However there has been a delay. SOE finally announced the date.

Free to play model has never been so popular in the History of MMO Games . DC Universe Online is the last to go free-to-play.

This free to play version of DC Universe Online will come with its disadvantages but none of these will affect your gameplay. Some of the limitations are: inability to trade items, limited inventory slots, only 2 character slots, in game chat limitations. What I liked about the membership tiers is that the Premium access level requires only $5 spent in game. Details:

All three levels provide access to the current game, but allow differing tiers of convenience and flexibility. The levels are:

Free: New players will now have access to the current gameplay in DC Universe Online (including Gotham City, Metropolis, and all current raids and alerts), with the ability to create two characters, join a league and many other benefits. Free level players will be able to purchase downloadable game packs/updates, additional character slots, powers and more through microtransactions.

Premium: Any player who has spent at least $5 USD (including former paid subscribers and new players who have purchased $5 of in-game items) will qualify for the Premium access level. Premium level players will have more benefits available to them than the Free level player, including additional character slots, additional inventory slots, and higher cash limits. Downloadable adventure packs, additional character slots, and more can be purchased in-game.

Legendary: Maximum features and benefits are included at this level. Loaded with enhanced additional features, Legendary access will be available for a $14.99 USD monthly fee and includes all DLC packs at no cost, more than 15 character slots, more than 80 inventory slots, the ability to form unrestricted-sized leagues, and many other benefits.
