Developer Turbine have said that Dungeons & Dragons Online will be free to play in Europe. Turbine told that,”We are very excited to announce that Turbine will be expanding its operations and will assume full control of Dungeons & Dragons Online in Europe.”
“Beginning 20th August, all European players can visit the official site to download and play the English version of DDO Unlimited with no monthly subscription required. Turbine’s new German and French service will enter beta before the end of the year.”
“As a thank you to our European players for their patience during this transition and to reward their loyalty, we are offering all current and former DDO Europe subscribers 5000 Turbine Points (nearly a €50/£42 value) when they transfer their characters. These points can be spent in the DDO Store on additional character slots, premium content, and much more. We thank Codemasters for the outstanding job they have done publishing and operating DDO in Europe and we look forward to continuing to deliver one of the world’s best online entertainment experiences to the gamers of Europe.”
