You're the reason we're here today, and the reason PlanetSide 2 continues to enjoy a bright future as the war for Auraxis rages on.
We're going to make this Anniversary week unforgettable - starting with our Anniversary update tomorrow, and leading into a special Anniversary Livestream on Wednesday, November 20.
