Flaunting a release window of Summer 2024, The First Descendant is set to bring an engaging third-person co-op action RPG shooter experience to our tables, so the hype around it is natural. Considering its impending launch, many fans wonder if it\u2019s free to play or if they need to start preparing their pockets to deal with its price tag. If you have the same query, don\u2019t worry\u2014we have included The First Descendant\u2019s pricing below. Is The First Descendant free to play? Pricing details explained Thrifty gamers would be pleased to know that The First Descendant will be a free-to-play title, like most live-service shooter games. On launch day, you can download the game on PC via Steam and Xbox and PlayStation consoles via their respective stores. At the time of writing, the game is currently in its \u201cFinal Technical Test\u201d phase. You can request access to it via its Steam page, but access isn\u2019t guaranteed. Of course, being a free-to-play game comes with some caveats. The First Descendant will likely have microtransactions to support its development. Now, if it\u2019s just optional cosmetics, players can always choose to avoid such purchases. But if the developers choose to monetize gameplay-altering content, considering how controversial pay-to-win is, it\u2019d certainly cause a lot of stir in the community. Nexon Games is yet to confirm details about The First Descendant\u2019s monetization system, so it may not be the best time to conclude anything. For now, it won't cost you a penny to install it.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/The-First-Descendant-pricing-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1236160"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1236160"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1236160\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1236191,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1236160\/revisions\/1236191"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1236165"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1236160"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1236160"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1236160"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1236160"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1236160"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1236160"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1236160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
