TERA is a fantasy MMORPG that has recently dipped its toes into MOBA territory by introducing TERA: Battle Arena, a team-based battle game. Battle Arena will be able to provide a fresh look and feel to the way combat works, all the while allowing you to play as characters you know and love from TERA.
According to Bluehole Studios as mentioned in this press release:
“Exploring TERA‘s world of Arborea and playing dungeons certainly is a unique and memorable experience, but we thought it would be great if even more players could experience some of the well-known TERA action in short sessions. Creating content focused on battles everyone can readily participate in without grinding for armor is one of the purposes of developing the TERA Battle Arena”
The developers also mentioned that they made Battle Arena much easier to understand, especially for new players who don’t have prior knowledge to the many skills you can find and use on TERA. The map for the game also has different kinds of objectives that will help teams achieve victory.
Recently, there has been some buzz about the game because the first batch of heroes has been revealed. For now, skills and descriptions have also been released, but these are still prior to change since the game is still a work in progress.
A hero spotlight was posted on the TERA website, along with an overview of the abilities and backgrounds. However, here’s a summarized list on the characters you can expect:
- Elleon: Valkyon Federation Hero
- Fraya: Allemantheia Commander
- Ciebel: Velik’s Priestess
- Zolyn: Moonlight Mercenary Captain
- Paesyn: Valkyon Federation Supporter
- Dixie Pincher: Captain of Red Wolves
- Avion, the Azart Tank (Battle Arena Field Boss)
So far, TERA: Battle Arena sounds exciting. As they say, we can never have enough MOBA, so we can’t wait to try out this one this coming Fall.
