After months of Beta testing, Stunlock Studios and Funcom’s arena based PvP action title Bloodline Champions has now launched.
Created by a talented team of young developers, the free to play title has been well received by the 200,000 testers that have been taking part in the Beta for the past few months.
Although the game is free, Stunlock has been listening to feedback from the community and recently restructured the pricing mode of the game doing away with their VIP membership plan. The new updated model is as follows,
Advanced stats: Everyone get this for free!
VIP tournaments: Will be merged with the regular tournaments – everyone can join on equal footing (barring US and EU differences).
Weekly blood-coin generation: The weekly cap will only exist for free customers. Once a free customer upgrades to an Edition the weekly cap is removed.
Advanced bots: Now included to all Champion and Titan customers.
Ad-free VOIP: Titan only, with a stand-alone product being evaluated for our other customers.
Lifetime 10% discount to in-game store items using Funcom Points: Titan only (as before).
Additional Titan Edition benefit: Will for life receive all new Bloodlines (characters) as they are released.
Champion Edition customers will receive 10 USD worth of Funcom Points as compensation for the 60 days of VIP service that was originally included.
“We started working on this game as a student project during our time at university, and it is fantastic to sit here today and see our game launching worldwide to the general public,” says the CEO of Stunlock Studios, Tau Petersson. “We are very proud of what we have achieved, and would not have done so without the support of our brilliant beta testers. The game now stands as a testament to all our hard work and we are very happy with the result. We are very excited to keep supporting and growing the game even further.”
You can grab the client from official website and start playing now.
