No, Burnout Paradise Remastered Is Not Adding Microtransactions

Battlefront II is published by EA, which is pegged as being one of the major drivers of this microtransaction culture modern games have slipped into. Since loot boxes and other types of microtransactions are being plugged into just about every game to launch under EA's banner, it stands to reason the company might consider a similar practice with a remaster of Burnout Paradise. The game's announcement states that all DLC is included in the initial package, but that doesn't mean that all of that content wouldn't be unlocked via a progression system driven by loot boxes (that you could buy more of for additional real-world money) in the remaster. There are lots of vehicles to unlock, after all, and it's easy to envision the above scenario if the game was just a standard launch instead of a last-gen remaster.
