Q: The Matrix Online reportedly sold only 43,000 copies in its first month. How does Sony Online intend to boost sales and subscriptions to the game?
A: Our goal with MXO is to grow the subscriber base, so as SOE becomes familiar with the title, we will be working it into our various marketing programs. Step 1 will be to add the game to our Station Access subscription plan. That move alone instantly exposes 50,000 SOE players to MXO. Station Access subscribers will need to purchase the software at retail and will then be able to play The Matrix Online, as well as Star Wars Galaxies, EverQuest, EverQuest II, PlanetSide and EverQuest Online Adventures for the PS2 for just $21.99 a month.
