Is The First Descendant Free to Play?
There has been constant speculation among the gaming audience whether The First Descendant would dent their pocket or would be freely accessible. Well, we have some good news for you here. The First Descendant is a free-to-play model, echoing a strategy common among many live-service shooter games.
The Release Platforms and Current Status
Gamers using different platforms are all covered. On the game's launch day, PC gamers can download it via Steam, while console owners can download it through the PlayStation and Xbox stores. The game also fully supports cross-play and cross-progression.
The Downsides of a Free Game
As exciting as the free-to-play model may sound, it comes with its downside. Microtransactions, common in many free-to-play games, are very prominent in The First Descendant as a means to support its development. If these in-game purchases are limited to optional cosmetics and timesaving unlocks, gamers have the liberty to avoid them. However, should the game introduce gameplay-altering content, heated discussions around the controversial pay-to-win model may be reignited.
Uncertain Monetization System
The game's publisher, Nexon Games, has not released any firm details about The First Descendant's money-making model. Therefore, it is advised that gamers reserve their judgments until further information is revealed. For now, what we can relay without any conjecture is that it will not cost you anything to install the game on your devices.
