Gameloft has announced that the next season for Disney Speedstorm will require users to purchase the Golden Pass directly with real money as opposed to earning it via in-game currency.
Golden Passes will continue to feature a free tier and premium tier, but the latter must now be purchased for $9.99/€9.99 rather than earning it by simply playing the game. If you want to bypass the tiers altogether, you can purchase a bundle for $19.99/€19.99.
