From Wikipedia: In the video game industry, a battle pass is a type of monetization approach that provides additional content for a game usually through a tiered system, rewarding the player with in-game items for playing the game and completing specific challenges. Inspired by the season pass ticketing system and originating with Dota 2 in 2013, the battle pass model gained more use as an alternative to subscription fees and loot boxes beginning in the late 2010s. Battle passes tend to offer free passes, which are available to all users, and a premium pass that require annual or seasonal charges in exchange for enhanced items and cosmetics.
It’s an enigma that somehow a bunch of people can afford, spread over multiple games, and on top of their other expenses like Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc. seriously though, how do people pay for all of this shit?
Ruined basically every game that has it. I remember guys telling me a WoW sub was a ripoff. Those same idiots pay for a battle pass w/o question. I don’t get it.
In a simplified way: if a game a has a battle pass system, as you play you earn points and get stuff for free, not great stuff, but stuff, but you can pay money to get better stuff. Very frowned upon in the gaming community
You buy a battle pass every season and you get access to that season’s premium content(cosmetics, emotes, etc)….after you earn them. That’s how it works in Halo Infinite at least.
In fortnite I mostly get the battle pass for free because of save the world, I’ve seen some bad battle passes and some good ones. The bad ones offer an advantage/gouge and the good ones are just free shwag for gaming.
I have never understood “seasons.” I’ve played plenty of online games and this concept fully escapes me.
In other words : a fking scam lol

It is a subscription to a game for extra stuff you wouldn’t be allowed to have elsewise.
A lot of the extra stuff can only be gotten by playing the game a lot and having the subscription going.

Battle Pass is when you take a really hard poop and fart at the same time. Battle Pass.
