“Prize crates are gone and the Race Shop is here!” the November Update notes clarify. “The new Race Shop feature gives players the option to purchase Mod cards, Driver Gear, and Badges whenever they like. The Race Shop is found in a new tile on the main menu page of Forza Motorsport 7. The item lineup in the Race Shop is a mixture of Mod cards, Driver Gear, and badges, and the inventory for the Race Shop refreshes every six minutes. In the Race Shop, players can purchase items using in-game credits. These items will vary in cost based on the type of item and its rarity.”
Car unlocks had been within the prize crates too at one level, however they had been liberated earlier this 12 months. Gits-b-gone. A rotating retailer nonetheless sounds just a little irritating however I suppose some individuals discover that type of factor thrilling. The replace launched on Tuesday.
We’ve seen quite a few high-profile games walk back irritating and exploitative loot containers over the previous 12 months, to not point out authorities regulators taking increased interest, however I don’t assume we’re across the nook simply but.
