Sony Online Entertainment had initially announced that DC Universe Online would go free-to-play six weeks ago. Today, the publisher has set the date for the changeover from the subscription model, which will be on the 1st November.
Premium players are players who used to be subscribers and now play for free, or players who have spent at least $5 USD in items. These players will get higher in-game currency limits, and more character and inventory slots. As one might expect, Legendary players are those who continue to pay the $15 USD/month subscription fee. They get all downloadable content free, over 15 character slots, more than 80 inventory slots, and the ability to form leagues.
DC Universe Online was released in January 2011.
