Article Draft- Video Games

FOMO is present in video games; specifically in video games that offer in-game purchases to players. (1)  In some video games, there are battle passes where players are able to access additional content and items within the game. (2) The battle passes offer cosmetics, skins, being able to skip a few levels, and other perks. (4) They’re also only available to purchase for a limited amount of time, which puts pressure on players to buy the battle passes as soon as possible before the offer expires. (3) This encourages players to purchase battle passes because they want to be able to acquire special items as well as have the same experiences in the game that their friends are having. (2)
