Universes collide as CCP Games have launched the free-to-play shooter Dust 514 on PSN. The game that is connected with the 10 year-old space MMO Eve Online sees mercs battle each other for dominance of the planet.
Three content packs have been added to the PlayStation Store for those looking for a leg up on the competition in Dust 514:
Mercenary Pack - An updated version of the popular open beta bundle that includes 40,000 Aurum to spend in-game, a 30-day skill booster (+50%), and exclusive gear. (£15.99)
Veteran Pack - Comes with dropsuits, boosters, 100,000 Aurum, a permanent Blood Raider Acolyte vehicle, a deadly sniper rifle, and more. (£39.99)
Elite Pack - The ultimate in mercenary preparedness, the Elite Pack offers 200,000 Aurum, boosters, four dropsuits, multiple weapons, a permanent light attack vehicle, and a collection of Heavy Assault Vehicles. (£84.99)
We're not sure these packs qualify under the term "micro-transactions".
Dust 514 will, much like its older brother Eve Online, receive regular content updates and new features with the next one planned for release in June.
