For the first time ever a Free-to-play MMO is coming to a console, and more specifically the Playstation 3, this month. The Kid-friendly MMO is expected to be released March 29th and will be a test for the free-to-play model on a console. The game has been hugely successful on the PC and Mac and it will be interesting to see how well that translates to the PS3.
The initial press release promises the same activities, like making meals, decorating your house, or building mazes and minigames found in the original PC game will be present, but Sony has decided to completely change the UI to be more console-friendly. Players can still live out battle fantasies as wizards or ninjas and pay to become members and continue to develop their characters with new quests and level-up options.
If this proves successful then it could mean that more adult-oriented MMOs could migrate away from the PC in the future. What do you guys think?
