TRIBES 3: Rivals is an upcoming first-person shooter from Prophecy Games, a subsidiary of Hi-Rez Studios, for Microsoft Windows, as part of the Tribes series. Aspects from previous Tribes games, such as jetpacks and skiing are featured in the game. Additionally, elements from Tribes: Ascend, including perks, weapons, and packs, have returned. Elements from Starsiege: Raiders have been included as well. The game is planned to be available for purchase through Steam for $19.99 for the base edition, with a 10% discount for anyone purchasing the Early Access starting March 12.

How to Play

Tribes 3: Rivals is currently in an alpha state, and was available during scheduled playtests to players who have registered for the playtest. The final playtest began on the evening of March 7, 2024 and ended on March 8, 2024 at 8:00 pm, eastern US time. After this, there will be no more playtests until the game enters early access on March 12, 2024.

History

The game was announced on the loading screen for the alpha of Starsiege: Deadzone on May 12, 2023. On November 22, 2023, a "Tribes 3: Rivals Playtest" was created on Steam[1]. A few days later on November 27, 2023, registration was opened for the alpha playtest. Two days later, an official Steam page was created for the game[2].

Gameplay

Voice Game System

Main Article: Voice Game System

One of the most popular ways to communicate in the game is through the VGS, a system of voice commands. Pressing the "V" key brings up a list of commands to send a voice message to your team and/or the enemy.

Achievements and Accolades

Main article: Tribes 3: Rivals/Accolades

Tribes 3: Rivals features a variety of achievements that can be used to unlock Avatars, Banners, and Titles for the player's Identity Card. Some achievements also award Armor Crates or Weapon Crates.

Classes

Main article: Tribes 3: Rivals/Classes

Tribes 3: Rivals features a class-based loadout system similar to Tribes: Ascend, featuring only three classes, light, medium, and heavy. Each loadout specifies what type of armor the player has, along with what weapons and items they carry. Each loadout supports three in-hand weapons, one belt item such as grenades or mines, and a pack. Prophecy Games has not announced if there are any plans to sell cosmetic items such as player skins.

Light Armor

Light Armor is the fastest and most fragile of all armor types. With a base health of 1,000, Lights are best outfitted for capturing the flag, chasing cappers, and sniping.

Medium Armor

Medium armor finds the balance between speed and survivability. With 1,500 health and a variety of weapons, Medium can be effective at midfield chasing and maintaining the base.

Heavy Armor

Heavy armor is extremely resilient and is unmatched in long range bombardment capabilities. It may be outfitted to fill Heavy on Flag or base destruction roles.

Game Modes and Maps

There is currently 2 game modes being tested, standard Capture the Flag (12v12) and Honor Ball (4v4).

Custom Matches and Content

While dedicated or private servers are unlikely, custom matches will be supported as they eventually were in Tribes: Ascend.
