World of Warcraft Proposes Tradable Subscription Currency

Patch 6.1 will be the first patch that’ll be released in the new year. The development team took a brief pause in rolling in all of the money from Warlords of Draenor sales to talk about what’s coming up as well as a proposed new subscription currency.

The patch will go into testing soon and will contain improvements to garrisons, a legendary follower, the ability to send tweets from the game, the new Blood Elf models, shorter flight master routes, incentives for visiting friends garrisons, and the new heirloom collection tab.

Blizzard is also exploring adding a subscription currency that sounds like EVE Online’s PLEX. The idea would allow players to buy and sell in-game-time tokens for in-game gold:

“Our current thought on this is that it would give players a way to use their surplus gold to cover some of their subscription cost, while giving players who might have less play time an option for acquiring gold from other players through a legit and secure system.”
