Randy Pitchford: Rumors of F2P Conversion Are False

Randy Pitchford has taken to Twitter to deny yesterday's rumors that Battleborn will soon go free to play. According to Pitchford, the story reported by Kotaku is "a reckless story".

I was just told about a reckless story about Battleborn going F2P that is false. There are no plans to convert Battleborn free to play.

Original story from 9-29-16:

An anonymous source has told Kotaku that Battleborn may be making a move to free to play by mid-November. According to the same source, Gearbox originally wanted Battleborn to be F2P but that 2K opted for a box price plus seasonal options.
