In a Funcom investor briefing, the company has spilled the pricing strategy for their MMO Age of Conan. United States gamers will pay $US59.99 for the game and $US14.99/month for the subscription. (Meanwhile, European gamers will pay 49.99 Euro and 12.99 Euro/month.) A quick skim through the briefing reveals some other interesting factoids, like that the game has already gone gold, Funcom expects 500,000-600,000 active subscribers at launch and internal surveys show that a “large proportion” of beta testers would like to buy it. Anyone out there considering cheating on their WoW account?

Interestingly with todays exchange rate makes the price of this in Australia $US 85.27! If I order it from the US and pay US$20 courier fees it works out to A$73.80 (the RRP is $90) plus I get all the preorder bonuses they don’t offer in Australia.
