Back With a Vengeance
Tribes is back with a vengeance. Following the success of the franchise, Vivendi has decided to add the missing element to the Tribes universe, a full, story-driven single player campaign. One of the reasons we are getting excited over T:V is the fact that Irrational Games are developing this Tribes venture. Irrational is a developer with a proven track record that has titles such as System Shock 2 and Freedom Force, under its belt.
Set 300-500 years before Tribes, T:V will follow different members of a family. On a relentless quest for revenge, the warrior princess Julia must unravel a bloody mystery that threatens to destroy the Empire. Through the eyes of six different characters on multiple timelines, this exciting and new single-player campaign immerses you in all the violent history at the heart of the Tribes universe.
Fans of the Tribes series should not worry though, as the developers are not giving up multiplayer and are promising an extensive and well thought out online aspect to the game. According to Michael Johnston, Irrational Game's senior designer, huge amount of effort is going into the multiplayer half of Tribes: Vengeance, so in that sense we hope it'll be a larger multiplayer experience than Tribes 2.
Tribes : Vengeance is expected to ship to retail in October 2004 while beta testing has been going on since June 14th.
Let's have an in-depth look at Tribes : Vengeance and see what the new game promises to bring to the franchise.
