How can you game for free you may ask? There are different strategies for making this work, but by far the most popular and successful is a micro-transaction model. With micro-transactions you might pay small amounts (a dollar or two) for cosmetic upgrades for your character so you can look different from other players for example, but the game download and game play are completely free. In this model, there is not as much money made per player, but more players are attracted to the game so it still works out for companies putting time and effort into making a quality game.
We are starting to provide monthly coverage of free gaming in our monthly newsletter. Please subscribe to keep up to date with the latest issue. Below is some info on the current game of the month: RF Online.

RF Online is an epic mix of traditional fantasy MMOG mixed with unique futuristic sci-fi action to bring an entirely new and original take on the existing MMORPG genre. Set in a deep space galaxy known as Novus, take your pick from three all-powerful waring factions leading your character into the final battle for total control over the entire Novus galaxy. Chose from either the Bellato Union, taking control of individual robot battle units like never seen before within any MMOG, Holy Alliance Cora, the mystical and fantasy orientated race utilising the power of magic and finally the mighty Accretia Empire, a futuristic alien race intent on spreading destruction across the entire sector with their advanced weaponry systems.
