EverQuest 2 Sees Registered Users Leap 300% After Moving to Free-to-Play

Posted by | January 16, 2012

Free-to-play scum is advancing across the MMO scene with the steady march of zerg creep. The reason for that? Because it works–at least in the short term. The free-to-play enterprise has been breathing new life into ailing subscription games over and over and now Sony Online Entertainment’s president has come out on Twitter to tell everyone that EverQuest 2 has seen nothing but sunshine since they went free-to-play. Amid the data points released, registered users jumped by 300% after the move away from subscription only. SiliconANGLE has the story.
