Blast into the Cybrid Era!We had it coming. We created Cybrids with breakthrough AI to perform dangerous tasks with lightning precision.One apocalypse later, the Earth lies in ruin from these heavy metal marauders. You and your squad of HERCULAN warriors must prowl this target-rich wasteland to deliver some heavily mechanized payback. But beware-the Cybrids are an intelligent and relentless enemy. You'll constantly have to train new pilots, develop new tactics, and acquire new weapons to secure an advantage. If not, they'll be hosing your remains out of the cockpit for the next rookie.
Two Games.One UniverseThe year is 2829. For decades, the Empire has gathered its forces, rebuilding after the last Earthsiege, preparing its HERCs, monsters of metal and power, for the next Cybrid invasion. This time is near, yet humans are not united.

For these people, war is a constant way of life.

Hi-Rez has made all the Tribes games, as well as the Earthsiege series that predated it. They're all PC titles, with the exception of Tribes: Aerial Assault, which I think might be the first PS2 game released as freeware by its developer. (It comes as an.iso file, so you'll be able to play it in an emulator and on chipped/modded PS2s.)I'm not sure how active or functional the multiplayer is for the previous Tribeses, but there's some single-player stuff in there, and I'd imagine it would be quite fun to download a few and take a nostalgic jet-pack-powered trip down memory lane.
I've not played a Tribes game before, as you may have gathered, but the first-person, mech-based Earthsiege games have caught my eye here.Here's the full list of newly free stuff (Tribes Ascend, the most recent in the series, was of course already free-to-play):. Earthsiege. Earthsiege 2. Starsiege: Tribes. Tribes 2.
Tribes: Aerial Assault. Tribes Vengeance. Tribes AscendIt's not clear if this a time-limited offer, or whether these games are free for the forseeable future, so, if you're interested. (Thanks,.)After a period of absence, Hi-Rez is now working on.
