Have the prices of plat gone up?
The price for 4K plat was £79.99 and now it is £99.99.
Seems like a big increase.
Also players in different areas have said that the price hasn't changed so is it only uk prices?
I have looked through forums and haven't found any evidence that suggests OTM will or have increased plat prices.
Thanks

Apple have raised prices in the app store by 25 % due to the weak pound caused by Brexit. Prices are currently,unchanged on Google.

Bit of a shocker eh?
Apparently the price hike applies to all app store purchases in UK, Russia, Turkey and India. I think Apple must be running out of coin and needed a bit extra beer money for the weekend.

Yeah at £69.99 it wasn't too bad.
£79.99 was a bit steep.
£99.99 is ridiculous, there's no value for money there at all!


Maybe if we could actually use platinum to buy the items we wanted rather than gambling in chests it wouldn't be so bad.

Another change due to currency exchange rates it seems.

The pound is still worth 1.25 dollars so crooked US business for the win. They can hardly blame it on tax either seeing as Apple are one of many huge foreign corporations with a "special" arrangement with the tax office
