Welcome to RIFT 2.3: Empyreal Assault & Free-to-Play!
Greetings Ascended!
RIFT 2.3: Empyreal Assault is here at last – unleashing Free-to-Play and the massive new zone, the Dendrome, upon Telara.
This may be one of our biggest updates yet – if not ever. Filled to the brim with new features, updates, and a whole new way to enjoy the game you love!
We have a lot to go over, read on for what you have to look forward to:
Character Transfer
Looking for a new home or to join up with old friends? With the Free Character Transfer service you will have the power to find the community that is best for you.
The Free Character Transfer service allows you to move your characters (and your guild!) to a different shard once every 7 days. This is an added benefit of your monthly subscription and comes at no cost to you.
Empyreal Assault RIFT 2.3
The age of Free-to-Play dawns in Telara! With Update 2.3, RIFT is free for all players with no trials or restrictions. An expanded in-game store offers hundreds of items and services – from special mounts to faction changes and weapon wardrobe slots – while optional Patron subscriptions add extra benefits for players of all levels. Gear up, explore, and play your way into Empyreal Assault, but know there’s no time to rest: the earthen Architects hide dire threats in the mysterious wilds and wastes of Dendrome.
RIFT 2.3 unleashes a new Sliver and Chronicle plus Strongholds and open-world raid bosses across a massive new zone. Explore the secrets of Greenscale’s Crater and the living Kaaz’Gfuu Hive, join in Atrophinius’s revelries at the wild town of Hailol, and come face-to-face with forces of Earth vying for power after the dragons’ defeat!
RIFT Free-to-Play: Exploring the Dendrome
“From the glittering spires of the Solstice Tower, to the sacred grove of the Northern Cross, to the holy temple of the Goddess [unintelligible] there is much to see in the province of Dendrome.”
- Calx, the Observant Hologram
The Dendrome is a land that has been sealed away from mortal eyes for an age. The source of the Faetouched energies that were used to rip apart the Brevanic civilization, it has been a mystery for players since the release of Storm Legion.
