Spartan Games – Fair Play Guarantee

We want to be absolutely clear about how we’re building and monetizing AEXXOS.

SPARTAN GAMES – Fair Play Guarantee

AEXXOS is 100% no pay-to-win. Any real-money purchases are purely cosmetic—account-locked ship skins and vanity items—so every spaceship, ammunition, and upgrade must be earned through gameplay. Your skill and strategy, not your wallet, decide your fate in the Galaxy.

On release, AEXXOS will be free-to-play. Cosmetic modifications (non-tradable and non-game-affecting) will be available through the Steam store for those who want to support development—completely optional. Over time, as the game grows, we plan to introduce a one-time price of $9.99 USD and lock it there permanently.
