This is a great example of a relatively low cost to them promotion that is sure to strike a chord with players - who doesn't like free stuff? Also a great gateway to get players interested in and familiar with how microtransactions work. Wrapping free currency around an upcoming games release is yet another way to grab eyeballs. Well done Aeira!
