Over the weekend, War Rock veterans were greeted with the WA2000 Zebra Edition sniper rifle in gratitude for the years of dedicated service and valor on the killing fields of the Republic of Derbaran. The never-before seen stylized sniper rifle features a 2x zoom, capable of vaporizing ground troops from the safety that only a long-range weapon can provide.

All active and new War Rock players will receive a promotion code "CombatVictory" for an item delivering a 20 percent experience-point gain good for the next 30 days.

In an effort to address current players requests and concerns, the GamersFirst development team has also applied game improvements, including improved frame rates, upgrades to our English client of the game and changes to player compensation.    

"War Rock continues to be one of our most popular MMO titles, and as such, we decided to celebrate not only the game's fourth anniversary, but honor the players that choose to spend their time in our world," said Rahul Sandil, SVP of Marketing and PR for GamersFirst. "With upcoming additions like War Rock: Clan Warfare, new weapon infusions, the dedicated GamersFirst development team and our devoted fans we look forward to another four years of battle in the Republic of Derbaran."
