En Masse Entertainment has announced that Tera is available for pre-order for $49.99. Everyone who pre-orders will have access to the MMORPG’s Closed Beta Tests, running from February through April, in addition to the Head Start play period over the weekend prior to the game’s launch on May 1.
“By breaking away from yesterday’s repetitive combat systems, and delivering real action, Tera is going to keep players on their toes and actively engaged in the game,” said Chris Lee, Vice President of Publishing at En Masse Entertainment. “The days of staring at your skill bar while pounding the Tab key are over. By requiring players to actively aim, dodge, and block, Tera’s action combat introduces real skill to MMO gameplay.”
There will also be a boxed collector’s edition and a digital download. The physical version will include a Letter of Marque, a canvas world map, a field guide, a Valkyon Federation-issued compass, and a game soundtrack for $79.99, while it and the digital version (which will retail for $59.99) will have the Frostlion Mount for in-game mount, the level 15 Velik’s Bloodstone Necklace and the level 40 Shakan’s Bloodstone Necklace.
