Barbarian wannabees living in North America will pay $59.99 for the game itself and a monthly fee of $14.99. In the mean time, Europeans will be faced with a price tag reading Euro 49.99, while their monthly stay in Hyboria will cost them Euro 12.99 per month.
Funcom seems to be aware about the key factor in the success (or the utter failure) of the game:
"The success of the game will depend first and foremost on the response it receives from players after several hours of playtime of the finished product."
The company stated that Age Of Conan: Hyborian Adventures servers are prepared to hold around 500,000 – 600,000 subscribers at launch.
Age of Conan will be released on PC on May 20, while a Xbox 360 version is to follow later in 2009.
