TranslationBut where newspapers, music, and films are struggling to find a way to make money on the free content the games industry is just doing it.
One of the business models for online games is to offer the games for free and give the players the possibility to pay for extra elements providing them with extra powers or adding to their appearance. This is a way to provide free games and still profit. But how do you create a community around your game giving the users incentives to upgrade? And how do you do this without letting down your potential customers: the players that are playing for free?
For this year's MEDIA Desk/DADIU seminar – the 5th – we have invited experts in the field of free-to-play from Canada, USA, Sweden, Germany and Denmark. We're proud to have gathered a compact and inspiring programme with high profile speakers at the Filmhouse on the 19th of November 2009.
Come and let them introduce you to the world of free-to-play games.
