Dust 514’s “cover charge” revealed
You'll have to pay a one-off fee to play PlayStation 3-exclusive MMO shooter Dust 514, developer CCP has confirmed.
A payment of between $10 and $20 will be converted into in-game currency.
"In the beginning you have to pre-buy credits, so you pay something like $10-$20 to enter the game and you get the equivalent number of credits in the game once you do that," CCP boss Hilmar Veigar Pétursson told Eurogamer sister site GamesIndustry.biz.
"We call this the cover charge."
Despite the payment, CCP insists gamers are getting Dust 514, which ties into PC-exclusive MMO Eve Online, for free.
