PvP in Black Prophecy is about to get a swift kick into overdrive with Episode 2: Species War. Set to release early this month, Episode 2 will upgrade the Black Prophecy PvP experience with the addition of a new warzone feature, which will pit opposing factions against each other for fast-paced dogfights in an effort to gain control of the opposing faction’s warzone outpost.

Winners of a warzone will earn “major XP” rewards and the benefit of trading their earnings for exclusive upgrade blueprints available only in the warzone hubs. More victories will bring more rewards for the entire faction. There’s more content to Episode 2 than just the warzone and PvP enhancements and gamigo will be revealing additional details about the update as it nears release sometime this month.

Follow along after the break for the full press release.
