POINT BLANK ONLINE GAMES

Tribes Universe is an upcoming massively multiplayer online shooter developed by Hi-Rez Studios based on the Tribes series. The game, along with Hi-Rez Studios' Tribes IP acquisition from InstantAction, was first announced on October 23, 2010. Alpha testing is said to begin at the start of 2011, with level 50 Global Agenda players getting priority in both Alpha and Beta tests. Users can sign-up to be part of the Alpha at tribesuniverse.com.

The gameplay of Tribes Universe will focus on player versus player (PvP) combat, while the combat itself will take place on large, open maps with support for more than a hundred players fighting at a time. There will also be a large, persistent world where players fight for territory control. The game will consist of just three different tribes, and is primarily a first-person shooter with third-person view being an option in some vehicles. Both ground and air vehicles will be featured, along with full clan support. Tribes Universe will also include key signature aspects from previous games in the series, such as skiing and jetpacks. Hi-Rez Studios Vice President Stew Chisam has also confirmed that the Spinfusor(aka disclauncher) will be making a return.
