this February that suggested, maybe this time, the revival would stick. The game launched into early access on March 12, 2024,, there are currently 27 players in Tribes 3: Rivals. The greatest number of simultaneous players the game has had was at launch: 890.on the Tribes 3: Rivals Steam page that appears to be even worse news for players:"Giving Back to Tribes 3 & Starsiege: Deadzone Players.
Developer Prophecy says it's"offering credits to all players who made purchases in Starsiege: Deadzone or Tribes 3 in the past."is an extraction shooter that launched in July last year, made by the same developer. Prophecy says these credits will be issued towards its new game,Basically any money people have spent on those games can now be used 1:1 towards buying Ultra Strikers which is… better than nothing, I guess, but a million miles away from a refund.
Towards the end of the announcement Prophecy almost-but-not-quite says that Tribes 3 is done."We’re doing our best to support Tribes 3 with limited updates , and plan to return to Starsiege Deadzone once the company has the resources, but unfortunately neither game had enough success yet to support the studio and can’t be our main development focus right now ."Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.
Prophecy can't bring itself to just say the obvious, though surely every player gets the message. This was not the revival we were hoping for. I have some sympathy for Prophecy, inasmuch as those player numbers are dire and it would take a Lazarus-level comeback for Tribes 3 to remain a going concern. But at the same time, if there were ever a time for clear communication about an early access game, it's when the decision has been made to turn off life support.
