TRIBES UNIVERSE EXPLODES BACK ONTO SCENE: A DECADE-LONG WAIT ENDS WITH EPIC NEW INSTALLMENT
Nov 23, 2023 1:13 PMExciting news for sci-fi shooter fans: a new Tribes game is currently in development, 11 years after the release of Tribes: Ascend. The Tribes series, known for its high-speed FPS gameplay, is getting a fresh addition from Prophecy Games, a studio that emerged from Hi-Rez Studios and later became independent.
The upcoming Tribes title is still early in its development phase, but playtests are about to start, offering the first glimpses into the game's potential look and style. While we don't have a release date yet, early screenshots hint at a visual connection with the beloved Tribes: Ascend, possibly due to the involvement of some of the original Tribes: Ascend team members now at Prophecy Games.
Despite lacking final polish, these early images should excite long-time fans. Prophecy Games previously released a free-to-play shooter called Starsiege: Deadzone, which met with mixed reactions. Meanwhile, Tribes: Ascend can still be played online, though it has been unlisted from Steam's search.
Gamers who enjoy fast-paced action and multiplayer experiences should keep an eye out for this, as a new era of jetpack-fueled battles is on the horizon. Stay tuned for more information as the development of the new Tribes game progresses.

Ah, the return of the classic ski and jetpack formula, the Tribes series revival is definitely a thrill for those of us craving that old-school, high-octane FPS fix. Here's hoping Prophecy Games channels that Tribes: Ascend magic and really delivers with this one—fingers crossed for some epic aerial combat and a tight-knit community revival.

Jetpacks and high-speed skirmishes making a comeback Count me in - the Tribes legacy deserves a next-gen revival, and it looks like Prophecy Games could be the ones to finally do it justice. Just hoping they manage to capture that classic Tribes vibe while giving us something fresh.
