Overview
Tribes 2 delivers the ultimate team-based action experience, building
upon the classic original game with tremendous innovations to the teamplay
and tactical gameplay elements. Tribes 2 places gamers in breathtaking
worlds where brainpower and teamwork are the only true keys to survival.
Join an exciting tribe, start one of your own, or enlist in a new race

and your gaming prowess in ways once considered unimagineable.
A completely new graphics engine in Tribes 2 adds tremendous depth

peaks, treacherous canyons, deep water, and breathtaking water effects
(including wind, rain, snow, fog, and lightning strikes) trigger your

Tribes 2 continues to evolve the award winning gameplay introduced
in the original with all-new weapons, missions, play modes and vehicles.
Compete with more than 50 others via the internet or over Local Area
Network (LAN) alongside human or AI teammates. Tribes 2 also introduces
single-player action to the franchise, with single player campaigns
