The guys over at Hi-Rez studio's have announced the release date for Tribes-Ascend is April 12 2012. Also add this as another Free2Play FPS game coming out this year.

SAN FRANCISCO. March 9, 2012. Today, at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, Hi-Rez Studios announced that Tribes: Ascend will be released on April 12, 2012.

Tribes: Ascend is a fast paced sci-fi FPS for the PC that bills itself the “World’s Fastest Shooter.” Supporting the announcement Hi-Rez Studios also released a parody trailer titled “Tribes Ascend – Llama Island.” “Tribes is all about speed and movement,” explains Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Studios Chief Operating Officer.

“In fact the community uses the term llama to refer to a player moving too slowly, like a plodding llama. So this video demonstrates the perils of trying to capture a flag while going too slow. The outcome is predictable but no less tragic.”

Tribes: Ascend is currently in Open Beta with over 400,000 players participating. Hi-Rez has announced that all player progress in Beta will carry over to the release build. Anyone interested in trying Tribes: Ascend can create an account and download the game from http://www.tribesascend.com, without the need for a beta key.

I was in on the closed Beta, and now in the open Beta. Very good game and does some justice to the Tribes series as well.
