Rift goes live

The first massively multiplayer online game from Trion Worlds is available worldwide this week

Posted on
Trion Worlds announced today that Rift, the publisher’s first MMO product offering, has launched. Rift is now on sale at select North American retail and digital outlets, and will be available in Australia on Wednesday, March 2nd, pan-European countries on Thursday, March 3rd, and in the UK on Friday, March 4th.

“Rift offers the most exciting, most social, most dynamic online gameplay today,” said Lars Buttler, CEO of Trion Worlds. “Our amazing development team has created an incredibly polished and complete MMORPG that carefully builds upon and then improves winning features that gamers love. Those features are then topped off with unprecedented freedom of choice and epic social events in an ever-evolving world of dynamic conflict.”

In Rift, the world of Telara is under siege from eight primal forces after the magical ward protecting the planet shatters. Joining either the technomagical Defiant or divinely-appointed Guardians, players assume the role of an Ascended hero brought back from the dead to fight the planar invaders and save Telara.

Available for Windows, the Standard Edition, Digital Collector’s Edition, and Retail Collector’s Edition of the game sell for $49.99, $59.99 and $79.99 USD, respectively.

The standard monthly subscription rate for the game will be $14.99 USD. Trion is also offering a limited-time “Founder’s Pricing” plan, featuring a $9.99 USD per month price for a multi-month subscription.
