It seems that Codemasters has found some success in turning their games
into free-to-play commodities. Like ArchLord before it, Codemasters's
latest product to get the free-to-play treatment is the sci-fi /
fantasy game, RF Online. According to the press release put out by the
company, the game is now completely free to download and play and they
hope to generate similar success to ArchLord, which garnered a 700%
increase in its player base. To celebrate this milestone, check out the
official press release and three new screenshots!
