En Masse Entertainment Bringing Streaming To TERA


Hey, remember when En Masse Entertainment was offering a demo version of TERA on Gaikai? And then remember when Sony purchased Gaikai and shut everything down? We didn’t either, but luckily that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on The Exiled Realm of A Massive Installation just because TERA is about fifty gigabytes. In [...]

TERA Boasts 1.4 Million Users In North America


When TERA announced that player numbers had doubled, and that number was now “over one million,” I had a feeling that since Gameforge was making the announcement that the figure did not include regions outside of Europe. Turns out I was right. In a press release by En Masse Entertainment today, the publisher has revealed [...]

TERA Doubles Its Players In Europe


Commonly when an MMO heads free to play, the number of active players goes up instead of down. In fact, it is so common that there is more news to be had in a game not seeing a boost in population than there is in one doubling or tripling their community. In Europe, TERA’s number [...]

[Taco Tuesday] TERA’s Ingenious Plan To Burn Out Prospective Customers


It is Tuesday and that can only mean one thing: The greatest day of the week, at least as far as lunch is concerned.

TERA goes free to play on February 5th, and you can still pick up a copy of the game on Amazon for $10. Why buy a copy of a game that will be free to play by this time tomorrow? If you haven’t been paying attention (and if you have to ask, you haven’t), TERA’s [...]

[UPDATE: It's dead, Jim. TERA's digital edition has been discontinued. If you haven't picked it up by now, you're out of luck.] TERA heads free to play in February, and if you intend on playing it you might have wanted to get your hands on a copy of the game back when Amazon had it on [...]

En Mass Entertainment Offering Refunds For Subscribers


Yea, this is directly following my article on TERA becoming free, but I felt this topic was important enough to warrant its own commentary. Generally when an MMO goes free to play, you don’t see the developer lining up to hand out refunds for existing subscriptions. More often than not, any additional paid time is [...]

TERA Heading Free In North America And Europe


With all the effort that En Masse Entertainment put into telling us that TERA would not be free to play in North America or Europe, the latter of which was contradicted the exact same day by Gameforge staff, I feel we as gamers could at least pretend to be surprised that the hiring of Nexon’s former Vice [...]

TERA Closer To Free To Play? En Mass Entertainment Shuffles Executives


With TERA going free to play in just about everywhere but North America, stateside fans are no doubt beginning to ask when their time is coming. The latest news from En Masse Entertainment was a post from Minea on the forums stating that TERA will remain subscription based in the United States. A definitive answer, [...]
