To register, clans should sign-up at www.warrock.net before July 20th.

War Rock will also be featured at the Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany this August. At the show, players can enter a mini tournament to win great prizes.

“The time has come for the Clan Wars to begin!,” said Producer Matt Norton, “We are very excited that not only are we embarking on War Rock’s first-ever clan tournament, but it is an international effort. War Rock clans the world over will be able to fight it out to become crowned the ultimate champions of War Rock.”
