Hi-Rez Studios today announced the official release of Tribes: Ascend. The fast-paced, sci-fi multiplayer shooter has completed Beta testing and is now a live PC game available for digital download.

The Tribes: Ascend release build includes 9 playable classes, 5 game-modes, and 16 unique maps. Recent additions include the CTF map Raindance, as well as a new game-mode called Capture and Hold. The Release build also includes a preview of the Custom Server functionality that will soon be available to players.

For the past 15 months, weve had a very passionate dev team working hard toward this goal, said Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Studios COO. Along the way some publishers told us modern gamers couldnt handle an FPS that was fast-paced and skill-based. We believe otherwise. Players seem to agree since weve had well over 500,000 join our Beta. Were excited to now grow the community further with the official release.
