Just when you thought the mobile gaming industry was hitting a lull, FunPlus International dropped a bombshell last week with the announcement of DC: Dark Legion™, a DC-themed action-strategy RPG. The game has already hit the market and received a wave of positive feedback from players, striking a balance between being friendly to free-to-play (F2P) gamers and offering advantages for those willing to pay. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore how F2P players can make the most out of their in-game currency and how paying players can get the best bang for their buck with microtransactions.

Empowered Legacy – This is the premium version of the game's battle pass, known as "Legacy". By completing special challenges and daily missions, players can earn experience to level up their Legacy. Each level offers both a free and a premium reward. The premium version, priced at around $10, provides enticing rewards such as World Anvil fragments, Legacy pieces supply, AC/DC shards, and, of course, Gems.

Gift of the Source – A one-time purchase that permanently unlocks a second construction queue. This pack is a steal at just $2 and also grants you 120 Gems upon purchase.

Growth Funds – Another one-time deal costing approximately $20, Growth Funds reward players based on their in-game achievements. The level of your War Room directly influences the rewards you can receive. For each War Room level, you can earn Gems, drones, intel, World Anvil fragments, cash, and more.
