After an explosive multiplayer reveal last week, Call of Duty: Ghost’s has been a hot topic. As always, Microsoft have once again established the Xbox brand as the ideal place for any Call of Duty fan.
Through the power of Xbox One’s Cloud, Ghost’s players on the console will gain access to dedicated servers – a first in the franchise. Furthermore, Ghost’s will be bundled with Xbox One’s upon release. Pricing is yet to be announced.
To further sweeten the deal, Infinity Ward also provided us with new footage of the game. In it, we get to witness the enthralling Crank gamemode, as well as Search and Rescue – both new game types that have went down well with the community.
Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls Online will follow a subscription-based business model.
The general manager of Zenimax online confirmed monthly subscriptions for the game, revealing that players will have to purchase the game, which comes with 30 days free, after which they’ll pay $14.99/€12.99/£8.99 per month.
“The Elder Scrolls games are all about allowing the player to go where they want, be who they want, and do what they want. We feel that putting pay gates between the player and content at any point in game ruins that feeling of freedom, and just having one small monthly fee for 100% access to the game fits the IP and the game much better than a system where you have to pay for features and access as you play.
“The Elder Scrolls Online was designed and developed to be a premium experience: hundreds of hours of gameplay, tons of depth and features, professional customer support – and a commitment to have ongoing content at regular intervals after launch. This type of experience is best paired with a one-time fee per month, as opposed to many smaller payments that would probably add up to more than $14.99/month any way.”
With other games dropping subscription for Buy to Play or Free to Play with cash stores, what do you think of Bethesda’s choice?
