Today, Reloaded Productions announced a new major update for Fallen Earth: Global Territory Control.

The update adds new conquerable settlements and outposts throughout the world, which will grant their owners property rights such as resource extraction and passive buffs that boost core combat skills and crafting. A new 50+ PvP area, The Foothills, will give players a new area to challenge each other in. A new player-crafted technology, prospectors and harvesters, will now let players survey and extract materials passively. New Death Toll items and recipes will also be available.

Other tweaks will also be found in the update, including combat trainers, merchant buyback, faster mounting, bulk purchasing, skill tree improvements, and junk-tech starting gear.

Players can also get a new Light Slugthrower Rifle (an advanced version of the new Junk Tech starter rifle) for free by entering “JUNKTECH” as a promo code in-game or on the Fallen Earth website. The code expires June 1.

Fallen Earth is published by GamersFirst, which also publishes APB Reloaded and Sword 2.

4.      All new level 50+ PvP area: The Foothills, filled with rare and valuable resources

a.       Prospectors allow players to survey for resource-rich areas
b.      Harvesters allow players to set up a device to passively extract materials
6.      Brand new items and recipes acquired via Death Toll

The highlight of the 2.4 Global Territory Control update is the most sought after and valuable new territory, The Foothills, which promises an abundance of rare and valuable resources in the recently constructed settlement in Deadfall.

Beyond the addition of Global Territory Control, the 2.4 update includes numerous tweaks and improvements to the overall user experience. This includes easy-to-use combat trainers, merchant buyback, faster mounting, bulk purchasing, easily accessible skill trees, all new “junk-tech” starter weapons and more.

“Global Territory Control finally gives our faction what they’ve always wanted – control of the canyon!  We’ve been listening to all the feedback from our players and are
Proud to finally release GTC and change the face of the Wasteland – so join a faction and join the fight!”, says Marie Croall, Lead Designer at Reloaded Productions.

As a special incentive, GamersFirst is offering gamers the Light Slugthrower Rifle.
