Gameforge and En Masse Entertainment have announced that both the NA and EU versions of TERA are now free to play as of Tuesday, February 5th. Players will need to download a patched version of the game to access the F2P options.

From the TERA Rising NA release:

In-game content launching today includes an all-new wave-based dungeon and a PvP battleground map. The multi-level Crucible of Flame dungeon will challenge players with a series of epic, high-level battles, and PvP players can jump into an all-new three vs. three battle arena. Two new game servers, one PvE and one PvP, also launch today to give players the option of joining a fresh server or one with an existing community.

Gameforge has released a new trailer for the EU TERA:

    I'm pretty excited to play today, I enjoy the game a lot.  I'm looking forward to the new server for a fresh start with all the new players.

    The server should be up at 7am PST / 10am EST.  Just be thankful they're trying to spread the word...

    It's "go to hell" anyways :p

    Be nice, folks lol.

    Not their fault the servers might have gone down in the mean time. I was able to log in at 8:00 AM before leaving for work at 8:30.

    I know of a guildie who was online 3 hours before that. The servers were already up at around 3 AM CET.

    Then restarted:

     

    There are more tweets since. Keep checking their forum/twitter, when in need.

    This should prove to be a stepping stone for TERA if all goes well. It had incredible success in Korea, most likely what influenced the change here.

     

    TERA has climbed from 22 ranked game in Korea to 13 in the month since F2P was released.

    Did they create a new server as well?

     

    I'll definitely be hopping on tonight...around 5:45pm EST if anyone cares to group up.

     

    Edit: Just saw the two new servers.  I'll be going on the PVP one...Lake of Tears,  Anyone care to group up?

    People thought Tera had too many sexist trolls before F2P, now it will be beyond worse. I feel sorry for those few decent gamers in that game.

    Actually, it's one game where I don't mind the toxic community.  It makes up for the lack or lore/story.

    If you bought the game before, you should have the full 8 slots.

    My authorization keeps failing when I try to login. I already changed my password en reinstalled the game with a fresh download and still the same bullshit. If this is how they welcome new players, then the game will die out before the end of this year...

     An issue specifically related to you that they obviously did on purpose is why nobody is in-game right now, there aren't queues to login and the game will be dead.

    Worldwide is misleading, no IP block to half of the world anymore? Or is that conveniently kept silent still?

    ---------------------------------

    Apologies, it seems that Tera Europe is not blocking players from Africa or Asia yet.
