Hi-Rez Studios announced today that Global Agenda Version 1.25 is scheduled to go live tomorrow, Thursday, March 25. Players should expect some server and Conquest Map unavailability while the patch is deployed (more details below).

Version 1.25 is primarily a maintenance patch. It contains fixes to knockback, changes to allow modifications to Conquest Zone scheduling, as well as a few other bug fixes for the game. In addition, this version introduces functionality that makes it possible for Hi-Rez to allow some players into the game on a Trial/Promotional basis, with access to only limited game functionality. (Persons wanting to participate in a Promotional Trial should follow HirezStudios on Twitter in order to learn of specific opportunities as they are announced).

The total download is around 30 MB.
