TERA is a free-to-play fantasy MMORPG from developer Bluehole Studios, and publishers En Masse Entertainment and Gameforge. In TERA the world is under siege by otherworldly beings that destroy and reshape everything in their path. While gods squabble and evil rises in every corner, the players must stand together against the onslaught and save their world.
True action combat is the main draw here. TERA takes typical MMORPG combat to the next level with enhanced aiming, dodging, and tactical timing to create intense and rewarding combat. For example, to avoid getting hit in combat, players must dodge attacks instead of simply standing in place and relying on arbitrary armor or skill ratings. TERA is free-to-play, with an optional premium subscription available.

FEATURES
On February 12th, TERA EU will be launching a Classic Server in celebration of the game's sixth anniversary. Players will be able to (re)explore "long-closed instances" like the Crucible of Flame, the Temple of Temerity and the Sirjuka Gallery. End game dungeons will reopen such as Rift's Edge, Balder's Temple and Fane of Kaprima. The server will also include 120 player invasions "in the revived Nexus events" and 20-player Traverse Sovereign raids as well.
TERA's PlayStation 4 and XBox One players have the opportunity to peer into the future thanks to the addition of a new 4-month roadmap to provide a peek at what's in store between now and April. Players can look forward to a new 40-player raid, the Manglemire dungeon, the Elin Gunner and a major update that includes tons of new content.
In preparation for the launch of the Valkyrie class on consoles, we asked one of TERA's writers, Scott James Magner, about the experience of bringing her to the western market and developing Valkyrie lore.
When the Shore Hold update goes live for TERA PC on January 15th, players will have a ton of new content to explore and experience. Most notably, PvP players will find the new Shore Hold battleground that is designed for two teams of 7. In addition, new PvP gear will be added that comes with some pretty sweet weapon bonuses. Last, but not least, PvE players will find the new Training Ground solo instance where players can test out new skills or builds to become the dynamo they are meant to be!
TERA console players can head into the game to fight as the newly arrived Valkyrie. She's ready to take on all comers including TERA's most ferocious BAMs. Valkyrie players can start the journey to 65 beginning today and earn some sweet loot and bonus XP as they level up.
