Global Agenda developer Hi-Rez Studios announced today that they've acquired the Tribes license. They're currently developing Tribes Universe, an MMOFPS based on the said license.
After announcing Universe on the Global Agenda forums, Hi-Rez provided some quick details about its features:
- Three Tribes (factions)
- Full clan (agency) support
- First person view (third person for some vehicles)
- Full vehicle support (ground and air)
- Full persistent world with territory control (no instances)
- PvP focused
- Huge outdoor maps (about 10x the area of sonoran desert)
- Large scale fights (100+ players)
- Jetpacks, skiing, lots of weapons, etc
Alpha testing is scheduled for the beginning of 2011. Global Agenda players with level 50+ characters will have priority access for both the alpha and beta. Seems like a really clever way to get people to start playing (or get back into) GA.
