in-game purchases

In-game purchases allow players to buy additional content or features within a video game, often using real money. These can include items like new characters, costumes, weapons, or virtual currency that enhances gameplay. The goal is to provide players with options to customize their experience or progress more quickly. Developers often design these purchases to complement the core game, offering extra value or convenience. While some purchases are optional, they can influence the gaming experience, making it more engaging or personalized, without necessarily affecting the fundamental gameplay for those who choose not to buy.
