Microtransactions in Gaming - a podcast by Gaming with RnR

20 years ago, games generated revenue primarily through the costs of initially purchasing a game. Today, some of the most popular games are free-to-play and recuperate costs through items called "microtransactions". Although they are less controversial today, they can polarize a gaming community and have a huge impact on the industry (Fortnite vs Apple/Google).

As we launch Season 2 of Gaming with RnR, Raf and Ray are joined this week by Fifa correspondent, Jessie, and MMORPG correspondent, Jessica, to discuss their thoughts on how microtransactions became so relevant in gaming. Later in the episode, Raf and Ray discuss the implications of Fortnite's recent battle with Apple and Google.

Welcome back and hope you enjoy the start of Season 2!
