“We’re thrilled that over 1 million gamers have discovered the fast-paced and skill-based gameplay of Tribes. It is truly the player support of the title that has driven the population growth and fuels our team to deliver updates.
We see the community expanding primarily thru positive word of mouth. Since release we’ve already recognized seven players who have each individually referred over 500 new people to Tribes: Ascend. The game’s success allows us to give back to the community through free DLC updates, tournament events and expansion into new markets in coming months.”
