On March 11th, Aion: the Tower of Eternity, an MMORPG developed by Korea-based NCSoft, made it available for players to change their character 's appearance and sex through buying "appearance change tickets" and "sex change tickets". The appearance change ticket is priced at 9,900 Won(USD 6.75), allowing players to change their character 's face and body shape, while the sex change ticket is priced at 12,000 Won(USD 8.18), allowing players to change both appearance and sex.

Though in the past NCSoft sold limited edition items in Lineage, it is still the first time for it to sell such common items in game. Does it indicate that the Korean version Aion: the Tower of Eternity is combining monthly subscription model with item selling model.

However, NCSoft claimed that they introduce "appearance change tickets" and "sex change tickets" only to offer players with more satisfactory services, but not to increase revenue.
