New cinematic trailer showcases the rise of robots in a new Open Zone

ATLANTA – September 21, 2011 –Today, Hi-Rez Studios announced that the Recursive Colony expansion to Global Agenda is now live and available to all players with no purchase required.  Version 1.5 is the first major expansion since Global Agenda became free-to-play last April and it is largest content update in the game’s history.

Called “Recursive Colony”, the expansion is themed around an electronic, hive-mind faction of robots constructing robots and intruding upon the player social hub of Dome City.

Supporting this expansion, Hi-Rez Studios has released a brand new cinematic trailer that highlights the new zone, new mission instances, new enemies, and the escalated conflict between man and machines. (link to trailer)

“Global Agenda’s move to free-to-play has been a resounding success”, says Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Studios COO “and we’re excited to be in a position where we can add such a significant content expansion and make it available for free to the entire community.  Many players have asked for a quest-driven, narrative experience beyond level 20 as an alternative to the instanced PvE and PvP missions.  Our dev team listened, and today delivers in a huge way with this new open zone!”
