“On July 18th, the trial of the new content of Assassin’s Creed was officially launched and was released on the 25th. ”
The content was named Assassin’s Creed The price of the book of Revelation had also reached a new high of 3988 Yuan.
!!
“In fact, before this, the collection of the three mysterious seas had been sold for 3688 Yuan, but it was actually equivalent to three games that could be bought separately. ”
“In terms of capacity, the magically modified Assassin’s Creed revelation had four games. However, due to Desmond’s existence, the stories of Assassin’s Creed 1 and Ezio could be linked together, so this was an extremely long theater version. The price of 3988 Yuan was already a low price. ”
“Of course, the game content of Assassin’s Creed revelation was different from the collection of mysterious seas, and it couldn’t be bought separately. ”
“When the price was announced, many players were dumbfounded. They rubbed their eyes, wondering if they had seen the wrong number. ”
“””What do you mean? Assassin’s Creed revelation is 3988 Yuan? Is this money? Did I see it wrong?”” ”
“””Is there a problem with the price on the official website? This price was similar to that of Assassin’s Creed It’s double the value of origin!”” ”
“””Is it a collection like mysterious seas?”” ”
“””No, it looks like a game, but it’s said that the game is very long.”” ”
“””This one’s family is poor, goodbye!”” ”
“It wasn’t just the players, many of the video game designers were also surprised by Chen Mo’s pricing strategy. ”
It was a little too expensive!
“In fact, the highest record for a single VR game in China was Assassin’s Creed It was created by origin, 1980. The sudden appearance of Assassin’s Creed revelation had doubled the price. ”
“Although there was a collection of mysterious seas before, it was considered as three separate games after all. Players could choose to buy one of them, and the average price of each game was only slightly more than 1000 Yuan. ”
“However, Assassin’s Creed revelation didn’t just sell! ”
“Even though the players were used to the double Eleven discount, the price of the game was still 2000 dollars, which was a bit extravagant. ”
“This price made many players flinch. They planned to see the livestream content and game reviews first before deciding whether to buy it or not. As for scouting the path, he would leave it to the rich people. ”
……
“In fact, everyone in the Assassin’s Creed project team knew that Assassin’s Creed Not only was the price of the book of Revelation not high, it was actually too low. ”
“11 RMB at half price, and Assassin’s Creed The volume of the book of Revelation was equivalent to four games in one, and each game was only 500 yuan. Origins was now half as cheap as before. Although the open world of Assassin’s Creed Origins was bigger, it was a great loss! ”
“Someone suggested to sell Assassin’s Creed revelation separately, but Chen Mo rejected the idea. ”
“In reality, Chen Mo had intentionally lowered the price of the game. ”
“Ever since the 11/11 event, Chen Mo’s games had been getting cheaper and cheaper, but as for why … ”
It was very simple increase sales.
“So far, the number of players on VR was still relatively limited, not as good as mobile and PC platforms. Before the technological revolution and the VR gaming pods became affordable to millions of households, VR games were destined to be for the rich. ”
“However, even those who had VR gaming pods couldn’t just buy all kinds of games. ”
“The reason why other game companies kept their VR games at a price range of 1000 – 2000 was because they were focused on a specific field, had a relatively Fixed player base, and had limited production capacity. ”
“For example, if they only produced one masterpiece in half to a year, and the player base was relatively fixed, then even if they lowered the price, there would not be more people to buy it. It was better to maintain the original price. ”
“However, Chen Mo’s current situation was different from other video game companies, as he was able to maintain an extremely fast development speed, to the point where his own games would clash with one another. ”
“For example, when the “”mysterious sea”” collection and “”end of the United States”” were released at the same time, it was equivalent to running into one’s own life. There was no choice. The game had already been created, so of course, it would be sold immediately. It couldn’t be that they had to wait for the release date and keep it in their hands, right? ”
“Moreover, since almost all of Chen Mo’s games were of different genres and different IPS, Thunderbolt gaming platform attracted a very large number of players. Most of them were Chen Mo’s personal fans, not fans of any particular game. They actually wanted to buy Chen Mo’s new game, even if it was a genre they had never tried before. ”
“Simply put, if Chen Mo had two games on hand, a and B, both selling for 2000 each, the players would only choose one if they were tight on cash. However, if all of them were sold at half price for 1000, then players might buy both. ”
“After all, they had profited. ”
“To Chen Mo, the cost was the same, and so was the income. They both earned 2000. However, the actual effect was different. ”
“First, it expanded the player base and attracted those who were not interested in B-level games. In the future, if there were similar games, they would consider continuing to buy. ”
“Second, it gave the players the impression that Thunderbolt gaming platform was a good company. ”
“Finally, it squeezed out other gaming companies and expanded its market share. ”
“At the same price, players could buy two games from Chen Mo, but only one elsewhere. Chen Mo’s game was even better, so what would the players choose? ”
“For Chen Mo at this stage, it didn’t make much of a difference whether he earned more or less. Thunderbolt Entertainment’s strong game production meant that he could use a strategy of small profit but quick turnover, while other game companies would have a hard time. ”
“As for the price of Assassin’s Creed revelation, Chen Mo didn’t find anything wrong with it. ”
“It was expensive, but it was worth it. Once the players actually tried it, they would understand that it was one of the most valuable games on Thunderbolt gaming platform. ”
……
“On the day of the trial, Thunderbolt Entertainment’s new headquarters was filled with a large number of players. ”
“However, there was no longer a queue this time. ”
“In fact, the experience store was still there, but like the experience Stores in other first-tier cities, it was handed over to someone to manage. Thunderbolt Entertainment’s employees were no longer there. ”
The experience store’s office hadn’t been moved or renovated-it was just for the players to visit. The game experience area and the holographic projection viewing area were still open to players as usual.
“Some of the players who were close to the original experience Store would still go there, but most of them chose to go to the new headquarters. ”
“After all, they were not on the same level. ”
“Many players woke up early in the morning because they were worried that they would have to wait in line. However, after entering the new headquarters, they realized that they had been overthinking. ”
It couldn’t even be filled!
“The hundreds of players quickly disappeared after entering the VR experience area. Empty game pods were everywhere, and it was not crowded at all. ”
“There were still players entering the game one after another, but even on the special day of the new game trial, the players were still in the same state as usual, so the players were not in a hurry and were very calm. ”
“A few players even decided to have breakfast at a themed restaurant first, and it would not be too late to experience the game after eating. ”
