Final Fantasy XIV subscriptions return in January

As previously detailed by Square Enix, paid subscriptions will be returning as the payment model for Final Fantasy XIV from 6 January. Thanks to a somewhat ... ahh, let's say 'wobbly' ... launch, the game has been free to players who purchased it before certain dates. Those free periods kept being extended, but are now set to end.

So, from January a 30 day membership period will cost $10 USD (still reduced from the proposed $13 USD), with various cheaper offers available if you pay for more days in advance. Current players who don't actively opt-into the new subscription charges will not be stealthily charged, they'll just have their accounts temporarily suspended.

For a full run down on the forthcoming subscription charges, follow the source link below. You can also take a look at the image below for Square's upcoming update plans for the game. Be warned though, it's about as complex as the roadmap for peace in Afghanistan.
