Mike Lescault, Project Spark’s Community Manager, took to reddit today to let Xbox One fans know that the upcoming title shall be a free-to-play title on Microsoft’s new console. This makes Project Spark the first free-to-play title on the Xbox Live service as even Xbox 360 free-to-play titles Happy Wars and Ascend: Hand of Kul required an Xbox Live Gold account to play offline modes. Also confirmed in the same thread is that Project Spark shall also be coming to Windows 8 and Xbox 360 also as a free-to-play title. Lescault stated:
“You do not need an Xbox Live Gold account to play Project Spark.”
“Project Spark will be released on Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Windows 8.”
“No. You will not need a gold subscription to play Project Spark for free on any platform.”
