The expansion, "Sandstorm," will introduce a plethora of new factions, new missions, new quests, new weapons, new armor... basically a whole lot of new everything!

If you've been a Global Agenda fan for quite some time now, then Hi-Rez Studios' first expansion for Global Agenda, "Sandstorm," probably won't come as a surprise to any of you. For the rest of the public, however, E3 is Global Agenda's chance to really shine, and the team has decided to lug along an exhibit for their new expansion! Sandstorm will feature new player weapons and armor, additional character customization (yes!), larger PvE raids, the ability to play PvE solo (yes!!), new PvP and PvE content, an updated User Interface and enhanced Agency vs. Agency campaigns (in other words, Guild vs. Guild fighting).

Currently at E3, the team is excited to be demonstrating their new quest-driven open zone gameplay, which works pretty much exactly as the name implies. Executive Producer Todd Harris notes that while Sandstorm "preserves [Global Agenda's] intense, shooter combat," the expansion's focal point appears to be to "add . . . story and immersion elements that [Hi-Rez Studios] thinks that players will really appreciate." So if you're interested in checking out all that this new expansion will bring to the table, be sure to check out the Hi-Rez Studios booth at the E3 Expo in the Los Angeles Convention Center's south hall in booth 747!
