To celebrate its first one million subscribers in only 17 days, Sony Online Entertainment is rewarding all current Free Realms players with a limited edition, in-game T-shirt featuring for their character and a matching pet T-shirt for their four-legged friends in addition to 200 Station Cash to use toward the purchase of in-game items.
Having logged in to benefit from this reward, we did not see these things credited. Does a subscriber mean a paid member? That doesn’t appear to be the definition. Considering that we signed up the minute the game went public, and assuming that FR is not simply rewarding this to the previously existing beta-members (who numbered around 800k) this would make the announcement of this reward somewhat misleading.
To learn more visit the Free Realms official site. We’ll keep you posted.
UPDATE:
Just received this email from SOE:
“To celebrate the 1,000,000th registered player in Free Realms™, we are granting a reward to the first 1,000,000 Free Realms players! Log in to Free Realms to redeem your special in-game commemorative T-shirt to mark the milestone (note: it may take a few days for the items to show up in your account). You’ll also receive a matching virtual T-shirt for your pet! As an extra benefit, we’re kicking in 200 Station Cash™ for you to spend in-game!
Keep your eyes peeled for our lucky 1,000,000th player. He or she will be the one in the blue and orange in-game astronaut suit!
Thanks for being a part of Free Realms. You Rule! “
Thanks Sony!
