style="font-style: italic;">Would you take up a Lifetime subscription for a soon to be free-to-play MMOG?
Cryptic Studios reintroduced the Lifetime Subscription option for Champions Online today. Players that are interested in taking up the Lifetime option can do so for the price of $299. With the game going free-to-play in February, this might not be the most successful marketing campaign. But Cryptic has tossed in a lot of in-game extras to try and make a tempting offer for players to sign on for the long run.
No subscription fee: Play without a monthly fee forever! (When Champions Online goes Free-to-Play, Lifetime Subscribers will receive all the benefits of Gold Members in perpetuity!) Free digital copy of the game: No need to purchase a retail key. It's included in your Lifetime purchase! Foxbat Action Figure - A miniature version of Foxbat to accompany you in-game. Art Deco/Art Deco Future Costume Sets - Two free costume sets, original to Champions Online's launch. Eight character slots - Create eight different heroes. The VIP room - The VIP room in Club Caprice is restricted to Lifetime Subscribers and longtime Champions veterans. Exclusive costume piece - Just visit a tailor in-game to add it to your current hero. "Vanguard" Perk and title - Show off that you're committed to Champions Online for the duration. Forum goodies - Change the color of your handle and show off that Vanguard title on the forums, too. More on the way!
