In a recent tweet (below),Motive’s writer Mitch Dryer retweeted a piece about Star Wars: Squadrons not having micro-transactionswith a statement, “ZERO MICROTRANSACTIONS, None”.
Apart from this confirmation, another Motive Studios executive, Ian Frazier toldGameinformerthat
Ian, in the recent interview, said that“Our mindset has been very old school. We’re trying to say with this game that we have a $40 price point, we want to feel generous to players, and we want it to feel like a complete experience. Like ‘You gave us your $40. Here’s a game that you will love. Thank you.’ That’s it. This isn’t something we are building around a live-service strategy. It’s built around a game that is complete and great in its own right. That’s not to say we will never add anything, I guess we could, but it’s not presented as a live service.”
