WildStar: Reloaded Review

by on Nov 26, 2015

We take a look at the free-to-play transition of WildStar to see if how it has played out for this futuristic sci-fi MMO.

WildStar is two years old now, but it’s fresh again thanks to its free-to-play conversion and shift to the freemium model. The game is now completely free-to-play with some optional services for purchase, along with a rather reasonable subscription model that makes the game easier to play and the content faster to move through, but is completely optional for most activities in the game.

Set out in space on the planet Nexus, it features two factions, The Exiles, and The Dominion, fighting to uncover the technology from the lost planet. WildStar Reloaded has a number of improvements, including a revamped tutorial, more than a year of updates, and of course it’s now free for life, no box copy required.

We’ll be taking a dive back into the world of Nexus to see if this is a valid avenue for you and your friends to explore and how the new payment model impacts gameplay.
