Gameforge has announced that over half a million new users have registered for Tera Online since the move to free-to-play, which brings the total number of players registered for TERA: Rising up to over one million.

Since the introduction of the free-to-play version, TERA players have created around 1.5 million characters. The battle-ready Castanics are the most popular race, with the Humans and High Elves in second and third; while the Warrior enjoys the greatest popularity among the classes, followed by the Sorcerer and the Archer.

The world of Arborea was expanded recently by the Crucible of Flame dungeon and a 3-v-3 arena called the Champions' Skyring. In the future, regular content updates for TERA: Rising will keep on coming. The next such update, which will be released within the course of this year, will add a new feature to TERA’s political system: Players who belong to a guild will be able to enter into an alliance and vie for supremacy against other alliances on their server.

Tera Online is available for Windows PC.
