While the cost of games for iOS has stabilized (most of these games are sold for $ 0.99, or even distributed for free), the price of in-game content continues to grow. There is a high probability that this will soon become the main source of income for developers.
For example, Glu Mobile is testing a microtransaction strategy for its new Gun Bros game: developers are asking $500 for one game item. The most expensive weapon in the game – The Kraken – the developers offer to buy for $ 492.
Previously, The Kraken cost $ 200, and now its price has increased 2.5 times.
