We challenged adventurers across the realm to share the love this Valentione season and express their affections towards their favored NPC in the form of a love letter. They say all is fair in love and war, so it’s no surprise that our Warriors of Light have just as much talent in their hearts as they do on a battlefield. Wait… don’t they also say love is a battlefield? How fitting!
It was a pleasure reading through these letters like a nosy postmoogle, and we’d like to thank everyone for their participation. Without further ado, we’re pleased to announce the winners of the “Be My Valentione!” Creative Writing Contest!
Read over the winning entries.

FFXIV Producer and Director Yoshi-P here.
With the release of FFXIV: Stormblood, we took measures intended to address the population disparity across Worlds. With Patch 4.2, we then placed a temporary moratorium on all plot sales to individuals. We thank you for your understanding regarding the necessity of these restrictions.
Based on our analysis of login numbers and plot sales across all Worlds in the weeks following the release of 4.2, we have decided to implement the following changes during the next scheduled maintenance:
- Restrictions on all currently designated Congested Worlds will be lifted.
- New Preferred Worlds will be designated.
- The moratorium on plot sales to individuals will be lifted.
The prolonged restrictions placed on Congested Worlds, while greatly inconvenient for those affected, have nevertheless proven effective in ensuring a more balanced population distribution across all Worlds. Now that that balance has been achieved, we will be removing these restrictions for a time.
Moreover, in the hopes of preserving this population distribution, we will continue to designate Preferred Worlds in order to spur population growth.
Please understand, however, that should we determine certain Worlds are receiving a disproportionate influx of new characters via transfer or creation, we may have no choice but to designate them Congested Worlds and implement restrictions.
The moratorium placed on private plot sales in conjunction with the addition of new plots has, as we anticipated, allowed a great many free companies to purchase plots and reduce the overall disparity between them. In light of these results, we plan to lift the moratorium on private sales and permit individuals to purchase plots once more.
As previously announced, private plot sales will be restricted to one plot per World on any given service account. For more information, please refer to our additional plots and purchasing guide.
Date & Time: February 19th, 11:00 PM to February 20th, 2:00 AM (PST)
* Please note that the duration is subject to change.
We thank you again for your cooperation and understanding, and hope you will continue to enjoy your time in the world of FINAL FANTASY XIV!

Hello there, everyone. Producer and Director Yoshi-P here to wish you all a Happy New Year!
2017 was a fantastic year. The release of our second expansion, Stormblood, was a great success, and we’ve seen more players online than ever before. It goes without saying our accomplishments over the past year wouldn’t have been possible without your support. I can’t thank you enough for your continued patronage.
As mentioned during the LIVE letter in December, our first major update of the year, patch 4.2, will be released at the end of this month. Plans for the FFXIV Fan Festival 2018-2019 are also well underway. With a year’s worth of preparation going into the event anything can happen, but I’m afraid you’ll have to wait to learn what we have in store.
It’s also worth mentioning we aim to do more than hold Fan Festivals. In fact, I’ve already settled on plans for another event over a year from now. I suggest keeping a look out for future announcements to find out what it is.
Speaking of announcements, yet another prophetic passage was delivered to my office not long ago.
Strange... I was expecting perhaps another ancient Eastern proverb, or even a passage from the diary of the late Archon Louisoix. What could this mean for the future of the realm? I suppose we can only speculate until the truth reveals itself.
The FFXIV team is taking a short break for New Years, but you can be sure we’ll hit the ground running when we get back to the office. There’s much to do this year, and we intend to give our all to provide you with the greatest gaming experience possible.
Again, to our players and all fans of the FINAL FANTASY series, I wish you a happy new year, and hope you enjoy what we have in store for 2018!

We are currently working through several updates to processing European payments (EUR/GBP) through the LOTRO Store, and have temporarily made a change to allow European players to make purchases using USD while we resolve these issues. Temporarily, non-U.S. players will see U.S. Dollar prices for their purchases. Expect VAT and currency conversions in the check-out process. This is only a temporary change, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Welcome guardians! We recently told you that Bungie’s highly anticipated new action shooter Destiny 2 is coming to PC exclusively through Battle.net. Today we’re excited to announce that the PC version of Destiny 2 is launching on October 24—and prepurchases are now live via the game’s website and also in the Blizzard Shop! Destiny 2 will be fully localized in English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Italian, Portuguese, and Japanese, along with a text-translated version in Traditional Chinese.
We’re also pleased to share that Bungie is planning to kick off a beta test for the PC version of Destiny 2 in late August. Further details on that, as well as any additional plans regarding localizations and regional availability, will come from Bungie and Activision at a later date.

See you in game!
We want to let everyone know that a new game will be appearing alongside your favorite Blizzard games—one that’s a little different from what you might normally expect. Bungie’s upcoming first-person action game Destiny 2 will be joining the party! We’re excited to announce that we're partnering with Bungie and Activision to support the PC version of Destiny 2 exclusively via Battle.net.
We’re big fans of Destiny here at Blizzard, and we’re honored to be able to help the talented folks at Bungie and Activision bring their much-anticipated sequel to a new platform. Being on Battle.net will allow Destiny 2 to plug in to our existing global network, freeing up the developers at Bungie to focus their energy and resources on making the best and most fun game they possibly can. This also means Destiny 2 players will have access to our online social functionality, including chat with friends, the ability to see which of their friends are online in Destiny 2 or in Blizzard games, and the ability to stream gameplay directly to Facebook.
See the FAQ below for further platform details, and stay tuned for updates as we get closer to welcoming Destiny 2 and its players to Battle.net. To learn more about Destiny 2, head over to www.destinythegame.com.
Why are you adding a non-Blizzard game to Blizzard's platform?
We loved Destiny and think Destiny 2 is going to be a great game. Blizzard has an established and successful global internet infrastructure we’ve used for years to support our own games. Creating a new network client for Destiny 2, which is bringing the franchise to PC for the first time, would needlessly extend the development period for the game. We want to get our hands on Destiny 2 as soon as possible like everybody else, so we offered to share our PC platform with our sister companies for this release.
Does this mean other games are going to come to the Blizzard platform too?
Our focus in terms of supporting non-Blizzard games is solely around Destiny 2. Aside from potentially evaluating needs or opportunities for future Activision games, we don’t have any short- or long-term plans to support third-party games with Battle.net. It’s important to us to maintain our quality standards for any experience or service we’re putting in front of our players, which represents a big investment of time and effort on our part, so this is not something we’re jumping into lightly.
Does this mean I'll be able to use my Blizzard Balance to purchase Destiny 2?
Yes!
Will Destiny 2 offer the same cross-game social features that Blizzard titles currently have?
Destiny 2 will be integrated into many of Blizzard’s existing social features—you’ll be able to chat with friends playing Destiny 2 the same way you already can for Blizzard games. Players will also be able to add friends and form parties the same way Blizzard gamers can. And, you’ll see a Destiny 2 status icon by your friends who are playing Destiny 2 the same way you do for friends playing StarCraft II, Diablo III, WoW, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, and Overwatch.
Where and when will Destiny 2 on PC be available?
We’re excited to work with Bungie to bring the PC version of Destiny 2 to every region Blizzard currently operates in. Bungie is actively working through the global details. We look forward to sharing additional information later this year.
Who will be operating Destiny 2’s servers?
Bungie will maintain Destiny 2’s servers; Blizzard’s servers will be used for features related to the Blizzard platform, such as login and social functionality.
And what about customer service?
Destiny 2’s gameplay customer service will be handled by Bungie; Blizzard will handle customer service for platform and shop issues specific to our service.
Unless otherwise explicitly stated, all information, including forward-looking information, is current as of May 18, 2017 only. Blizzard and Activision Blizzard undertake no duty to update or revise any forward-looking information contained herein. For more detailed information, please refer to Activision Blizzard’s reports and filings with the SEC.

Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. has formed a dedicated division within the company that will handle management, operation, sales, and distribution for Overwatch® esports programs, including the Overwatch League™ and Overwatch World Cup. In addition to bringing together some of the most talented people from across the entire organization, this effort includes the full integration of Major League Gaming, acquired in 2015, into Blizzard and also leverages some of the best and brightest from traditional sports, esports, and entertainment.
The new division, which will retain the MLG name, will build on Blizzard's nearly 20-year history as a leader in esports and leverage MLG's extensive experience with live events and content distribution. It will also operate the MLG-branded media network, which will broadcast both Blizzard and Activision esports content as well as other premium gaming programming.
In addition, the associated teams and technologies will serve as the operational foundation, partnership hub, and media-production network for the Overwatch League as well as Activision’s Call of Duty® World League. This includes league management; team, media, advertising, and sponsorship sales; content development; and event production.
Blizzard’s separate esports team will continue to directly manage and operate the global esports programs for Heroes of the Storm®, Hearthstone®, StarCraft®, and World of Warcraft®, but will begin leveraging the new division’s capabilities for media production, sales, and distribution.
With these initiatives underway, Blizzard currently has multiple open esports positions, with more on the way. Apply now at jobs.blizzard.com, and stay tuned there for more esports openings in the weeks ahead.

LOTRO Bonus Days bring you a Buried Treasure Weekend, now through March 12th!
Hello Daevas,
During QA testing, we found a critical issue with the new Atreian Passport. Specifically, the issue is with the function that sends all unclaimed Passport rewards to your player inbox. This means that any player with unclaimed rewards could lose out on some or all of their items without an easy means of getting them back. In order to allow time for a fix to be properly developed and tested, we’re making the difficult but necessary decision to postpone the Aion 5.3 launch until March 15.
We understand you’ve been looking forward to this launch as much as we have, and as we work on resolving this issue we’ll be extending the Kromede’s Revenge event for one more week. Additionally, we’ll also hold a bonus EXP event for the days leading up to our new launch date. Click here for full details of the bonus EXP event.
Please hold on to your excitement for one more week. Thank you for your patience, and we apologize for this unfortunately necessary delay.
-- Gideon, Associate Producer

Aion’s 5.3 update is coming soon. In this update to Aion: Echoes of Eternity, large-scale content is the primary focus. If battling against Ereshkigal forces isn’t enough, the tournament-format Arena of Tenacity will open its doors pitting contenders against each other from both factions, and more!
Battleground Pandaemonium & Battleground Sanctum
With the Aetheric Field weakening following Iluma and Norsvold’s release from stasis, Ereshkigal’s forces have seized the opportunity to further expand her influence. For the first time in living memory, Dredgions have directly assaulted Pandaemonium and Sanctum. In this 384 member PVE instance, Archdaevas must defeat Ereshkigal’s invading forces and save their home.
Arena of Tenacity
In this new Arena, players from both factions are pitted against each other to reach the top spot. Players can queue for the Arena and the system will match players against others in a single-elimination tournament format.
Prime Guardian/Prime Archon Equipment
The new medal rank, Spinel Medals, along with Fragmented Spinel, can be acquired through various PvP activities – PvPvE instances, Arena of Glory, PvP quests, and more. These medals can be used to purchase Archdaeva Abyss equipment from the Hall of Fame/Glory.
Estima
Estima is a new item that can be enchanted with Estima Solution or Omega Enchantment Stones. These items can be enchanted up to +10 and up to three Estima can be equipped. Equipped Estima expands your pool of Essence Points so you can further customize your build.
Atreian Bestiary
Players can acquire an illustrated monster book when defeating monsters in Illuma and Norsvold. Collect monster portraits and unlocks rewards for completing various stages of the book.
Keep your eye on the website for the launch date and additional previews and guides!
Omega Unbound Enchantment Event
January 25 to February 15
Hundreds of Omega Enchantment Stones are used daily in game. Soon, every enchantment you make with an Omega Enchantment Stone, regardless of success, will pool towards rewards for the entire community. Work together to unlock prizes like Luna, Manastones, and Bonus XP/Drop weekends!
A survey containing 500 Untradeable Supplements will be given to all players for your endeavours.
The Mysterious Enchanter
February 15 to March 1
Similar to the Bonafide Bootlegs event, Mysterious Merchant Luxurinerk sells equipment and accessories for you to enchant and temper.
All weapons and armor are pre-enchanted to level 10, and when enchanted to +15 will exchange for permanent gear. For those who want to push it further, armor and weapons enchanted to +18 or higher will exchange for a different, more powerful set. Accessories can also be purchased and tempered +5 or +7 for different equipment sets. “Rent” the equipment and accessories for the duration of the event, or enchant them to its required level!
We will also be giving players supplements for this promotion!
Tempered Power Promotion
TBD
A new accessory item, the Empyrean Bracelet, is making its way to Atreia in Aion 5.3. This new accessory greatly improves your PvP Defense and slightly improves your PvP Attack, and can be leveled up through tempering similar to the Plume. At higher levels, its appearance changes and it will also gain up to 3 manastone slots. During the Tempered Power promotion (formerly known as Power of the Plumes), temper your Plumes and Bracelets for rewards! If you’re wondering when 5.3 is launching, keep an eye on our website for our announcements.
The Broken Hearts event will also run starting next month. Full details for all Enchant-O-Rama events and promotions will be available as the event nears its start. Happy enchanting, Daevas!
For this holiday weekend only pick up Tempering Solutions on the store. Give the gift of Tempering Solutions or keep them for yourself! Sale ends December 26, 12 PM server time.
Visit the in game shop or web store for all items available.
Solorius Greetings, Daevas! Gideon here.
I wanted to take some time to discuss upcoming changes to the game.
In my last letter in September, we mentioned the possibility of server merges. The health of our servers is extremely important to a sustainable long-term future of Aion. To that end, in spring 2017 we will be merging the servers from five down to two.
Israphel, Tiamat, and Kahrun will be merged into one server, while Siel and Beritra will become the other. I understand many of you will be dismayed to hear this news, as it effectively means all players will be affected by the merges. Making this decision was extremely painful, however in the long term it will allow us to provide a better gameplay experience for all of our players.
Unfortunately, there is no solution that will make everybody happy. We will do our best to alleviate the worst of it and are actively working with the development team in Korea to ensure that the player-side impact is as minimal as possible. Once we finalize the exact changes that will take place, we will be releasing a comprehensive guide and FAQ about the merge early next year.
On the bright side, we will be turning to the community to help us name the two servers! We’re excited to see what we can come up with together.
In the last few months, we have suspended and permanently closed numerous accounts tied to exploiting and cheating in our game. We would like to remind players to play Aion fairly. Should you find a player cheating do reach out to us so we can review and determine the next course of action.
Two weeks ago, a few key members of the Aion Dev team visited the North American office. We had extremely productive meetings discussing the challenges Aion faces, our road ahead, and how we can provide a better service for the players. They were also very interested to hear our suggestions for how the game can be improved, and shared some of their plans for the future. Both groups had wonderful input, and we look forward to those future plans becoming reality.
We asked if they would like to address our community, and they had this to say:
It was hinted at above, but you won’t need to wait long for Aion 5.3. We are already working on this exciting update and we will be making our major announcements after the holidays.
Stay warm and safe this holiday season. We will see you in game!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Please bear in mind what we discuss have already been a work in progress and not an exhaustive list of what the team has been doing. We will continue to share with you our plans, thoughts, and actions on the game.
Those seeking rare tomes and new experiences alike are in luck—Blizzard today announced the creation of Blizzard Publishing, a book-publishing label dedicated to developing and releasing new titles, such as the World of Warcraft Adult Coloring Book, in a variety of formats, as well as reissuing out-of-print titles from the company’s backlog of award-winning books.

The Halloween season has finally arrived, and we’re ready to cut straight to the heart of the holiday.

Unleash your magical axes, psi blades, chitinous claws, and other creative cutlery to carve up Blizzard-themed jack-o''-lanterns of epic awesomeness.

We’ll choose five of the grandest Cucurbita to each receive $60.00 Battle.net® Balance. Don’t delay; start carving right away! The fourteenth annual pumpkin carving contest ends on October 27, so be sure to check out the contest page for rules and eligibility and get straight to slicing.
Greetings Daevas and Happy Daeva’s Day!
As Aion turns the corner and completes its 7th year of live service in the West, it's as good a time as ever to take a step back and look at where it stands. This past year has not been without its challenges, and we definitely would not have made it through without the loyalty and dedication of you, our players. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you from the entire Aion team.
In this letter, I'll share with you some of the team's priorities and plans for the next twelve months. Bear in mind that we're already working on these as I write this, and on several of them simultaneously - while we might prioritize one or two in the immediate term, none will be neglected. Lastly, this is not an exhaustive list, just some insight into what we are planning for the coming year – as time moves on and other plans become more solidified, I will write more letters to address them.
The Long Term
With the 5.0 update just behind us, one of our top priorities is to improve the frequency of our game updates, and improve the communication surrounding them. In recent months, we've fallen further behind schedule than we would like to be, and this is obviously a problem. Also, it's not fair to our players to have to watch those from other regions enjoy an update for months on end, with little word from us about when that update will be out here. To that end, we are streamlining our update process and will be better about communicating with players on when they can expect to see content.
Another major item we have been discussing (and a hot topic in the community) is server merges. While Aion has much to offer, server population has been falling for some time. Those of you who remain are as dedicated as ever and are sustaining the game with your passion and patronage, but we still want the best possible environment for you to play in. Before making official announcements, there are several considerations we need to make - player-side impacts like rankings, housing and game economy, and team-side impacts such as scheduling needs and how this may (or may not) affect the overall schedule of our game updates. We are still in preliminary discussions regarding server merges so we're not ready to announce anything just yet, but look for this information in the coming months.
The Immediate Future
In the coming weeks, the Daeva’s Day events will wrap up, and we will move into Harvest Revel. Popular events such as Alchemy and the Nightmare Circus will return. Moving further out, we look forward to the next update to Echoes of Eternity arriving before the year is out, bringing with it a host of changes to the Arena as well as a level 66+ Dredgion and a new Archdaeva-exclusive crafting discipline. We will post more information as we near the release date, but know that we are all very excited to have you experience this update and the next chapter of Aion’s story.
If you’re looking into jumping back into Aion, we definitely encourage you and welcome you to do so! The success and longevity of the game would not be possible without your continued support and passion for the game.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and we hope to see you in game.
Gideon
Though Gul’dan and the Burning Legion seek the complete destruction of Azeroth, there is hope yet! Heroes of the Horde and the Alliance have amassed a truly fearsome army of their own—as of Legion’s first full day of launch, more than 3.3 million copies had sold-through, and World of Warcraft’s launch-week player concurrency reached its highest point since 2010’s Cataclysm.

During the purification process, the tempering levels will be reset and the Pure Plume stats boosted. You will also select an additional stat for the Pure Plume. For a Magic Boost plume, you can purify it to add Magic Accuracy or Crit Spell. You can also temper the Pure Plume with Tempering Solutions to continue to boost the accessory’s HP and secondary stats. If the temper fails, the Pure Plume will not go boom, but its tempering level will be lost.

Soon you can visit the Luna Shop where you can exchange Luna, a new currency, for unique services from the shop.

Once the Frezy Meter is full, you'll fill one of the stars at the top and when all four are filled you'll instantly receive a prize from the highest prize tier.
There are a few ways for you to get tokens for the Upgrade Arcade.
The rewards can be viewed in the Upgrade Arcade menu and are distributed randomly from the upgrade tier you end on. Remember, you can claim your reward at any time. If you want that prize at Upgrade Level 6 without risking a failure on your next attempt, hit the Rewards button to claim it right away. Keep in mind that if your upgrade fails and you do not resume playing, through choice or lack of tokens, you will only get a prize from Upgrade Level 1.

Originally released in December 1995, Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness expanded the conflict between the Horde and the Alliance to truly epic proportions. In addition to introducing characters and settings that would serve as a rich foundation for many future adventures across a range of games and other media, Warcraft II was our first release to support simultaneous online combat between more than two players (up to eight), and it kicked off our tradition of including a robust map editor with our real-time strategy titles.
In many ways, Warcraft II's popularity had a huge influence on much of what was to come for Blizzard—from the creation of Battle.net; to StarCraft; to World of Warcraft and the upcoming Warcraft movie; and best of all, to our cherished connection with the passionate, dedicated fellow gamers around the world whom we are proud to call the Blizzard community. Happy 20th anniversary to Warcraft II . . . and thank you, everyone, for helping to make Azeroth such a vibrant and inviting place all these years.
From everyone at Blizzard to you and yours, have a safe and happy holiday season!
To help celebrate, we've prepared a Holiday Card Gallery featuring a festive card. Enjoy!

Community Manager Eric “Ocho” Cleaver sits down with Senior Concept Artist Stephen “Drakcoon” Mabee to talk about art, RIFT, and Planetouched Wilds!
Ocho: Could you introduce yourself? SM: Hi, I’m Stephen Mabee, Senior Concept Artist, also known as Drakcoon on the forums.
Ocho: How long have you been here? SM: Around a year and eight months. I’ve been with RIFT since the beginning, though!
Ocho: Tell me a little bit about your history with RIFT. How did you start? SM: I originally came from another MMO, where I was a hardcore raider. I had hit a couple world firsts in that game, but it had gotten stale and I was looking for something new. The early news about RIFT, especially dynamic rifts, really attracted me so I came over with some of my friends to check it out.
Ocho: What are some of your favorite memories of playing RIFT? SM: Interestingly, I really enjoyed the process of leveling up! The large group of friends who I was playing with was a big advantage. Killing Greenscale together for the first time was a huge rush!
Ocho: Do you still play RIFT? SM: I still play RIFT quite a bit. For me, it’s father-and-son bonding time, since my father also plays. We’re big into PvP and playing Warfronts together.
Ocho: Favorite Spec? SM: Right now I’m playing Warlord and Reaver. Reaver is pretty solid at the moment, but Vladd is sure to keep changing things to keep us on our toes.
Ocho: What’s day-to-day life for a concept artist on the RIFT team like? SM: Every day I get tasks from my manager, Marigold. She explains importance, and we tackle them in order. I’ve been working on armor and mounts for a while, making sure we have new stuff in the pipeline for players. Once I’ve got my tasks, I get my coffee and go at them!
Ocho: What have you been working on lately in RIFT? SM: Recently, I’ve been working on the Shalistiri who we’re fleshing out for an upcoming release. They’re genie people who have been getting more attention and backstory. I start with the bosses and gradually work my way down towards the base creatures. I’ve also worked on a set of weapons for them to go along with that.
Ocho: Do you spend much time looking at references or searching out inspiration? SM: I usually gather a bunch at the beginning, looking at Google or surfing art sites. I generally have a pretty good idea of where to go after talking to Captain Cursor, who comes up with the story and lore side. For the Shalistiri, I thought genie. It’s a little cheesy, but my mind went to Robin Williams, so in a way it’s a bit of my tribute to him. Other things I looked at included Middle Eastern cultures. The Shalistiri are air creatures, so wind and air motifs play in a lot. Flowing and elegant designs were on my mind while concepting them.
Ocho: What’s something you particularly liked after seeing it in game? SM: A lot of it hasn’t been released yet, but the next raid we will release is really exciting to me. It’s a bit of a different direction than we normally go, but the raid will be unique visually with a lot of different elements that will be completely new to RIFT.
Ocho: What is your favorite thing to create? SM: Big, bad bosses. When I go to the forums and I see a boss that I helped design being a challenge for players, I enjoy it. When folks do finally beat it, it’s glorious, with a lot of yelling. I’ve been there so I know how great that feels.
Ocho: How did you get involved in doing art? SM: I started doing art, drawing and whatnot, at a really early age. My parents both loved art. My dad was into fantasy art, and it was always around growing up. Dad was an inspiring artist, but he went the military route, which is a bit different. They were always very supportive of my interest in art.
Art went away when I was in middle and high school – I had other things on my mind at that time. I guess I got really serious about it again towards my senior year of high school, when I was figuring out what I wanted to do with my life.
Ocho: Did you go to school for art? SM: I attended Ringling College of Design in Sarasota, Florida.
Ocho: What was your course of study? SM: Originally, I was considering computer animation, but the year I started school was sort of the end of traditional cell animation. I re-evaluated what I wanted, and went with illustration as a general field.
Ocho: Do you have any advice? Concept art is pretty much the coolest art job in the company. It’s what most folks think of when they say, “I want to create art for video games!” SM: Spend more time on art than anything else, even games. Draw every single day, and spend most of your day doing art rather than whatever else you could be doing. You might think you’re missing a lot, but most of that can be made up. Practice is super important and just takes time. You can’t fake tens of thousands of hours drawing.
Ocho: How do the long development cycles and delayed gratification from seeing your creations in-game impact you as an artist? SM: I don’t mind it too much. I’m constantly creating new art, so it’s nice to see stuff I’ve worked on pop up. It refuels me and keeps me going. Since it’s been so long, I can look at it with fresh eyes. The next raid we will release was concepted months and months ago.
Ocho: So you’re the guy who has all the info the players want about future content? SM: I might know a few things. We work really tightly with the design team, because the closer we work together the better the stuff we come up. We have a really great relationship with the designers here on the RIFT team.
Ocho: What’s it like digging in Captain Cursor’s
Razorbacks are going hog wild in RIFT! Now through July 29, you’ll have a chance to get a brand-new mount by helping terrified Telarans fend off these predatory pigs.
Get to wrasslin’ and wranglin’ while completing Instant Adventures and closing Nightmare Rifts to earn Succulent Truffles – special event currency that can be exchanged for Razorback Troves that, when opened, may contain the mightiest swine you can ride: a brand new Armored Razorback Mount!
If you’ve been itching to rule the roads with one of these robust razorbacks, now’s your chance! Talk to your local PRI Representative to complete daily quests and get one step closer to charging into combat on the back of these battle-ready boars.
Be among the first to discover all the details of the new Warfront mode and map coming in RIFT: Into the Wilds! Read on for more information and join us for our live stream and playtest!
The ebb and flow of battle can be intense, and our newest addition to Warfronts captures this very spirit! In Assault Mode, you’ll play the part of Attacker or Defender while fighting through a series of objectives. Occupy strategic positions and force your way into your enemies’ inner sanctum, or drive your foes from your halls and secure your defenses against future assault. Once an assault is completed, you then switch roles and the battle resumes!
Assault on Bronze Tomb is an all-new Warfront Map and environment build specifically for Assault Mode. It features three distinct stages, brutal room-to-room combat, and a vast trove of ancient Brevanic technology, magic, and wealth. Mercenary companies from all over Telara and beyond rush to take control of this wondrous cache. You must fight through the Tomb to take your prize, but will you have the strength defend your new wealth?
Each team will attack and defend the strategic capture points throughout the Tomb. As one falls, more will open. Be wary of the Tomb’s devastating traps – or use them to your advantage to defeat your enemies!
Attackers and Defenders first clash amid the Tomb’s outer defenses, surging back and forth using jump pads to propel themselves into the fray. With two capture points to hold in order to secure the passage, teams must split their forces to retain control. Powerups and fiery traps add to the excitement in this entry point to the Tomb.
The action does not end once the Passage of the Fallen Heroes falls! Defenders can retreat to the Tomb of the First Settlers and rally around two additional control points in its central chamber. Opportunities for flanking maneuvers exist, but combatants will have to navigate amongst fiendish spike traps to take advantage of them.
Finally, a dedicated attacking force may be able to breach the innermost sanctum of the Bronze Tomb and penetrate the Treasure Vault itself. Before you can gather your riches, however, you’ll have to secure the vault from its tenacious defenders. With cannons, ice traps, and a fountain spewing venom, this is no easy feat! Canons can be activated by either side, so control of these mechanisms can be crucial in capturing this region’s sole control point!
Want to learn more about Assault Mode and the Assault on Bronze Tomb? Check out our RIFT live stream on Friday, July 24 or join in on the playtest!
We’ll be previewing Assault Mode on Friday, July 24 at 3:30 PM Pacific on the Trion Worlds Twitch channel.

Budgie Madness is back in Telara!

PRI Representatives are waiting to get you saddled up for daily races in Silverwood, Freemarch, Cape Jule, and Pelladane. Victorious jockeys should save up their Bird Seed to take home their very own riding bird. Or try your luck with Umbral Budgie Troves that have a chance to contain the limited edition Umbral Budgie.
Don’t miss your chance to catch a ride astride one of these magnificent beasts!
Sleep no more, Ascended, for the tortured visions haunting your nights only tighten Arak’s grip over Telara. The Lord of Nightmares, who peers into your darkest memories and gives flesh to fear, stirs in cold depths of Draumheim!
RIFT 3.3: Waking Nightmares arrives July 15, unleashing the first chapter of the new Nightmare Saga plus Planar Crafting (including new, upgradeable planar gear and weapons), Instant Adventure in Tarken Glacier, and a new, more accessible variant of the Gilded Prophecy raid.
Prepare today – Arak and Laethys await!
Join us on the Trion Twitch Stream on Friday, July 10 at 12:30 PM Pacific for an in depth look at the upcoming Gilded Prophecy raid and more!
Eric “Ocho” Cleaver, RIFT Community Manager, will chat with members of the RIFT Raid team including Dev_Anony and Epsiry as they delve into the whats, wheres, and whys behind Gilded Prophecy! We might even have a special appearance by Archonix to recap what’s coming in RIFT 3.3 Waking Madness!
See you all there!
After meticulous study of strange temporal anomalies forming in Tarken Glacier, a bounty of new materials has been discovered that should make every profession rejoice!
These coveted components hail from the space between the planes, in icy Tarken expanses where the spinning edge of the cosmos siphons rare and potent energies from the elemental realms themselves. These rare materials debut with Planar Crafting in RIFT 3.3: Waking Nightmares, bringing powerful new items, weapons, armor, and accessories to Telara.
Ascended eager to uncover the secrets of this new crafting subsystem must seek out Tephael in Choreburg and complete his weekly quest to receive Planar Crafting Lures. Use these lures to tear open Planar Crafting Rifts in Tarken Glacier, then defeat their denizens to obtain highly coveted materials you’ll need for new Planar Crafting recipes!
There are 6 types of Planar Crafting lures – one each for Fire, Air, Earth, Water, Death, and Life – and each rift has a chance to drop relic crafting components exclusive to its plane. (These new materials can be fished out of the water, too, using new Planar Fishing Poles.)
In addition to holding an amazing amount of useful Nightmare Tide crafting materials, these new rifts also have a chance to drop former raid tokens, Strands of Draum, and Hearts of the Frozen, plus tradable Planar Crafting components used to create new, upgradeable planar gear.
To learn even more about Planar Crafting, watch our livestream preview and prepare for the launch of RIFT 3.3!
Once, Cosmologist Mann was the brightest scholar of planar phenomena in the universe – a leader among his peers. Nary a beam of light nor celestial body existed that he could not name. His curiosity knew no bounds, and yet, his gaze reached too far.
After discovering the Temple of Aia, he inspired the ire of the Goddess herself, and she filled his mind with visions of a life destroyed by mortals. Now, Mann schemes in the frigid depths of Tarken Glacier, driven by a mad desire to rewrite Telara’s cosmic history.
Relive the fight for the Glacier – and stop Mann from releasing Shigoroth upon the Dreaming Seas – in new Instant Adventures debuting with RIFT 3.3: Waking Nightmares. Prepare for harrowing battle in the coldest corners of Nightmare Tide, and reap the rewards of Mann’s research run amok!
Temporal abnormalities are returning to Telara June 25 – July 1! Help study (and combat) these dangerous phenomena while completing daily quests to receive special loot, mounts, and more.
Gain access to Temporal Flux Vaults, earned through quests and available in the RIFT in-game store, and get a chance to take control of your very own rare Black Empyreal Walker mount. Just find your Planar Research Institute representatives in Sanctum, Meridian, or Tempest Bay to get started or pick up where you left off.
Those eager to ride inside a Mech of their own, take heart: Both quests and Vaults contain special temporal currency that can be redeemed for Empyreal Walker mounts now and in future events, too!
Restless in the depths of the Plane of Water, Lord Arak awaits. He knows the fears that lurk in the memories of every Ascended, seizing the visions from their fevered nightmares and giving them breath. Does your mind merely fret in the midst of a fitful sleep, or has the Lord of Nightmares turned his gaze upon you?
Next month, RIFT 3.3: Waking Nightmares will unleash the first act of a new Saga Quest bringing Lord Arak’s darkest cabals to light! Ascended brave enough to face their terrors will uncover new mysteries in the deep, along with powerful Nightmare Weapons that can be upgraded into relics with special procs.
Prepare today by closing Nightmare Rifts and earning the trust of the Ghar: you never know what help they’ll provide as Arak shakes the foundations of the reality you (think you) know!
