Heroes of Newerth goes free to play!

By - | Views: 4,727
Well this is a bit unexpected (by me - i'm not up to speed on it all), but Heroes of Newerth has gone free to play!

Maybe it is to combat the fact that Valve are creating Dota 2...seems likely!

There are now three types of accounts:
      Basic: The standard, free account new players will receive upon sign up.
      Verified: Basic accounts that have been upgraded through a show of commitment to their account, by either purchasing Goblin Coins or surpassing a certain threshold of play time. This allows them to participate in Verified Only games.
      Legacy: Paid user accounts that existed prior to the free-to-play model. These accounts receive a lifetime of free access to all HoN heroes and are able to play in Verified Only games, to ensure that experts and beginners are separated. Legacy accounts can no longer be purchased.
