EA Phenomic’s mixture of real-time strategy with trading cards,BattleForge, has received a sizable price reduction to the tune of $20 off. The title can now be found at North American retails for $29.99, with additional funds going to the developers by way of purchasable in-game booster packs.
I’ve always been curious to see how well microtransactions can work as a main revenue stream, specifically for free-to-play games such asBattlefield Heroes, but no one has ever really divulged any solid numbers to my knowledge. I guess it must be working if EA is willing to giveBattleForgea price drop.
As always, there’sa demo availableto test the game out, or you can read aboutSamit’s experiencewith the RTS, orDyson’s thoughtson the multiplayer.
