Offworld Trading Company Will Cost You

The grossly underrated real-time economic strategy game Offworld Trading Company (developed by Civilization IV’s lead designer) has officially transitioned to a free-to-play model for its multiplayer mode. Starting yesterday, Steam players can play both casual and ranked matches for free at a great price.

I got in touch with a Stardock rep who confirmed my suspicion that this move is simply to get more hands into the game and strengthen the user base and hopefully spread word of mouth. The rep also said that there are currently no plans to implement microtransactions in free multiplayer and honestly I don’t see how they could do that. The free release coincides with the release of the Market Corrections DLC, which explains why humans left Earth to colonize Mars, so there’s that too.

Offworld Trading Company  Longtime readers will know that I cried a lot because this game didn’t get as many eyes as I thought it deserved, and I think this will be a great move for the little RTS it could . I know many users have been turned off by the RTS genre in the past, but believe me the person who has terrible APM rate, Offworld Trading Company is not your usual RTS. Now that it’s free, you have no excuses (again).
