Star Trek Online Pricing Plans Announced

Star Trek Online Pricing Cryptic has finally revealed their pricing plans for monthly access to Star Trek Online. No real surprises here because MMO monthly subscriptions are well traveled ground and gamers expectations as far as pricing go have already been set by other games.

Of particular note however are the two special offers they are running right now if you're willing to trust that the servers will be good and that you'll really love this game:

$239.99 - Lifetime Subscription
  • Lifetime Access to Star Trek Online
  • Playable Borg
  • 2 Additional Character Slots

$119.99 - 12 Months Subscription
  • Annual recurring subscription locked in at the discount price
  • 2 Additional Character Slots



If you're not sure you're going to play that game for that long or you just don't have the cash right now their are the typical 1, 3 and 6 month prices as well:
   
  • 1-Month Recurring - $14.99 (or 8.99 GBP)
  • 3-Month Recurring - $41.97 (or 25.17 GBP)
  • 6-Month Recurring - $77.94 (or 46.14 GBP)
I've played the beta some and can say I like the game but I'm still not sure I'd plop down for a yearly let-alone a lifetime plan after having been through the disappointment of Tabula Rasa. What good is a lifetime subscription if the servers are shut down? Now I'm not saying this isn't a better game than T'Rasa because it is, I'm saying that MMOs are tough to monetize and keep running if their name isn't World of Warcraft.

Star Trek Online will be released on February 2, 2010. If you pre-order Star Trek Online from Amazon by following this link, you'll get an Amazon.com exclusive Borg Bridge Officer.
