Eve Online Subscription Prices Change for the First Time in 20 Years

CCP Games has raised the price of subscriptions and in-game currency tiers in its multiplayer RPG EVE Online. In a blog post, the studio explained that the price change "reflects global trends impacting general production costs and accounts for years of inflation".

It is worth mentioning that it's the first time since 2004 that CCP Games increases prices for subscriptions and game currency in its long-running MMO as it plans to invest "in EVE Online’s evolution and growth". The developer also noted that the price change will affect other, non-US currencies.

The price changes will come into effect starting May 17 and will affect Omega and PLEX costs. The monthly Omega subscription will rise from $14.95 to $19.99, and the three-month subscription will jump from $38.85 to $47.98. For six months users currently will have to pay $86.95 (compared to $71.71), and for twelve months the subscription cost will be $149.9 (compared to $131.4).

In addition, the users will be offered two new tier options: a two-month subscription ($35.98) and a 24-month subscription ($270.99).

The PLEX tiers will be completely restructured. Currently, it offers options to purchase it from 110 PLEX ($4.99) to 15,400 PLEX ($499.99). When the changes come into effect, several new options from 50 PLEX ($2.49) to 20,000 PLEX ($649.99) will be available.
