Assassin's Creed: Unity To Use Microtransactions To Unlock Things In Game
An Ubisoft producer has confirmed that you'll be able to "fast track" unlockable items and gear with real money in Assassin's Creed: Unity.
Speaking with OXM, producer Vincent Pontbriand confirmed that a system on display at Gamescom that allows players to buy early access to in-game items and gear will be in the final version of AC: Unity.
He did say that it will be done in a way that won't compromise gameplay.

Our Take:
While it doesn't personally bother me -- I'm not a completist -- I know that that microtransactions of this type do bother some fans. It will be interesting to see how far Ubisoft goes with these plans.
