FreeRealms has an update coming that will add a new job to the game (Fishing), along with new types of pets (horses, unicorns, dragons) and also the ability for players to purchase housing. Houses can be decorated, and interactive items like dance floors can be purchased for having friends over. A change has been made to the way free vs premium jobs work. All jobs will now be available for free up to level 5. Previously, some jobs were free and some were premium. Current players will be grandfathered in on existing jobs.

Free Realms to introduce new job, pets, player housing and more - Massively

Does that mean all the jobs that were available for free until 20 are now only free up to 5? Kinda makes the Warrior-light jobs like Brawler useless.

Edit: RTFA, Ingrid. Well, that effectively makes the game completely unattractive for free players, huh?

That's a bit crap, making people pay after lvl 5 for all jobs. Meh. I'm still paying for subscription, I should really stop that, haven't played it in a month or more - before that I was playing every night.

the rest of the content looks pretty interesting though, and they have listened to what people were asking for, which is something I suppose.

I might subscribe again for the fishing (I'm a virtual fishing addict. Sad.) but I really liked the game more in beta when it was most 20- and 30-something casual players. The chat restrictions made communicating pretty much impossible.

Aww i was waiting for the introduction of housing to go back and explore again in my Beta Cap (stylish moi ? ) - but sucks about the level 5 change even tho I will probably be grandfathered. Oh er.

Maybe they should rename it "Free til 5 Realms"

There are 5 million accounts already, that's a lot of grandfathering.
