Dust off your wings Daeva. Aion has set the release date for its 3.0 Ascension update that will add a ton of new content and make the jump to free-to-play. The 3.0 update is set to hit North American servers on April 11th and will add the new “Truly Free” business model, a new housing system, six new instances, a level cap boost to 60 and a lot more.

Check out the latest trailer after the break and visit the Aion website to learn more.

I am not a fan of Asian mmos , but it's perfect for that always broke gamer .
But I noticed ncsofts lineup is all free to play guild wars , lineage 2 and now Aion.
While I understand the concept it makes the game become the rich gamer = power and the one who don't use real money in the stores are the ones left with a watered down shell of the paid to play version

Inside sources are suggesting that declining numbers in swtor that they are testing free to play weekends to open the idea of swtor going free to play . But really ea has not made anything successful outside of console sports games.

I predict Tera will flip in a short period , may not be free but the numbers will dip so low the servers will look like alot of wows do now.

You can hate on my words , post some smart comeback or even agree but if you stop and think outside of a small amount most mmos go free to play anyways
