Hi-Rez Studios announced today that Global Agenda's Recursive Colony expansion will launch in early Fall and will be free to all players. The largest content update in the game's history will be themed around an electronic, hive-mind faction of robots constructing robots and intruding upon the player social hub of Dome City.

The Recursive Colony expansion will add a variety of features to the game, including a new open zone, new enemy bots, daily repeatable quests, new PvP maps, a revamped tutorial and more. You can read the full list of features after the jump and view some screenshots from the expansion in our gallery. The content will be playable at PAX Prime this weekend.
