Is Rogue Company Free? Probably, Here's Everything We Know So Far

Rogue Company has been doing the rounds on several gaming channels and has managed to stir up quite the excitement for its upcoming release. It is developed by Hi-Rez Studios and is their most ambitious project to date. But what exactly is Rogue Company about? And is it free to play or paid?

What is Rogue Company?

Rogue Company is an online multiplayer shooter that comes with cross-platform support right out of the box. It comes with familiar weapons and different melee styles which allow you to create your own in-game personalized battle style that is advantageous to your particular’s rogue’s skills.

Rogues in the rogue company are different characters that you can earn and unlock. Each rogue comes with their unique advantages and is bundled with their unique battle styles. You can unlock different rogues and create multiple battle styles for different gameplay modes or stick to one and make it your own, the choice is completely up to you.

Is Rogue Company Free To Play?

While Rogue Company is expected to be free once it is released to the public, the current beta versions and early access closed betas are paid. There are three different packs available and all of them give you access to the closed beta. These packs include Starter, Standard, and Ultimate. Each pack has its different perks with the Ultimate pack coming with things like 8 different unlocked Rogues, in-game currency, in-game outfits, and more.

Why is the Closed beta paid?

The Closed beta is a paid feature as having an open beta often leads to more problems than solutions. A closed beta allows devs to address each feedback properly and introduce and focus fixes only on players encountering that particular issue. Open betas also cause a lot of free players to enlist only to never provide devs with feedback. This is counterproductive to the beta phase of a game and can end up delaying the release of the stable version.

Hence, devs have gone with a closed beta program and are offering valuable upgrades with each purchase. These perks and closed beta packs will be unavailable after the stable release and you will either have to earn them in-game or purchase them individually using in-app purchases.

What are the different pricing models for Rogue Company’s closed beta?

The closed beta is available in 3 pricing models; The Starter Pack, The Standard Pack, and The Ultimate Pack. Let’s take a look at the features offered by each of these packs.

When will a stable version release for Rogue Company?

The closed beta has recently begun its operations and is expected to continue for a few months now. The devs will test new features, maps, rogues, and servers to identify potential bugs and fix them in the process. The devs will also test out future feature releases which will be released as a DLC expansion pack later down the line. This pegs the release for Rogue Company for Q4 this year or Q1 2021.

Will the final stable version of Rogue Company be free to play?

Yes, it has been stated earlier that Rogue Company will be free to play for all users once the stable version is released to the public. People who enlist in the closed beta will be able to keep all their rewarded items as well as currency and items that they earn during the closed beta.

Items that are currently available in the closed beta purchase packs will be available individually as in-app purchases later on in the stable version. This might cause you to spend more money in the game if you want them in the future.
