Battle passes known as season passes is the modern and popular way to monetize a game after it’s being launched.

Moreover, other online games have adopted the system, games like Rocket League and Apex Legends. On the mobile area, Fortnite is the game that had encouraged the modern season pass. Some time ago, games like Call of Duty would be the ones that sell season pass for granting access to the story-based or to the multiplayer content which you can download. Things are changing, games are changing, and now the passes are focusing on the cosmetics earned through playing.

Finally, Clash of Clans Gold Pass has increased the revenue so much that the game is now in the top five games for iPhone games in 46 countries.
