Echo VR is expanding with a new season pass system. For a price of €10, players will be able to take advantage of many aesthetic customization options for their avatar. A novelty that should revive interest in the game, and allow Ready at Dawn to monetize its successful title…
The Echo VR game is undoubtedly one of the best multiplayer VR games available today. The “Ready at Dawn” studio, owned by Facebook, lives up to its name very well since it seems to have a head start in the field of eSports in virtual reality.
However, despite its success, this game is not very profitable for its creators since it is offered free of charge on all headsets in the Oculus range. In order to “monetize” its hit title, the developer announces the imminent addition of a “season pass” .
This Echo Pass will allow players to unlock new customization options for their avatars. They will be able to access new patterns, tags, tints, emotes, banners and emblems, but will also be able to customize their chassis, bracers and thrusters for the first time.
Echo VR will finally allow you to change your face
You can for example put on a dinosaur mask. This novelty is welcome, since the avatars were so far very uniform. It will also be possible to add a title under your pseudonym, always with a view to personalization.
Each season should last about two months. Subscribers will receive “Third Party Experience Points” as the season progresses, and will gradually unlock new rewards.
The Premium Pass costs approx. 10€, or 1000 “Echo Points” can be purchased separately. Going forward, Ready at Dawn plans to add more ways to spend those points by the end of 2021…
It is currently unknown when this new season pass will be available to everyone. For now, a private test server opens its doors today. For players who want to try this new version, the studio recommends an Oculus Quest 2 headset…
