Hi-Rez Studios (www.hirezstudios.com) today announced that the highly anticipated Closed Beta for Tribes: Ascend will begin on November 4, 2011.
The Tribes games have been played by well over 1 million gamers and feature fast-paced, jetpack-enabled multiplayer combat. Tribes: Ascend continues that tradition, delivering speed, verticality, vehicles and stunning graphics as a free-to-play game for the PC.
“Our vision is to deliver a high production, AAA multiplayer shooter that offers a refreshing alternative to today’s slow paced military shooters, while also happening to be free to play.” said Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Studios Chief Operating Officer. “This holiday season, shooter players can continue to hide in cover and crawl across the ground while playing one of the familiar military-style shooters… Or they can get off their belly, strap on a jetpack and join us in high flying, high-speed combat in Tribes: Ascend!”
The Tribes: Ascend Closed Beta will be invitation only. Interested players can register at http://www.tribesascend.com.
