Welcome to RiftForged: A World Without Illusion
RiftForged is a zone-based, physics-driven RPG where reality itself is your enemy and your tool. No prefab illusions; only real-time consequence.
Zone-Based, Open-World Exploration
Each Zone in RiftForged is deeply connected. You can walk from tutorial areas into endgame horrors. Whether you will survive is another question entirely. This is not scaling comfort. This is earned survival.
Core Classes and the Ascension Tree
Choose from distinct Core Classes:
- Riftborn Scout: Gravity-wielding kineticists
- Solar Watcher: Fire and radiant-based assault
- Glacial Order: Icebound tank/control hybrids
- Verdant Pact: Nature-driven support and crowd control
Advance through the Ascension Tree to unlock deep passive customization and combat evolution. The tree supports true multiclass through Resonance Levels and Class alignment.
Specializations: Singular Paths
Once you've mastered your class, you’ll unlock a powerful Specialization, a swappable choice that redefines your combat identity:
- Threnody (RiftCaller): Commands echoes and souls from the Void
- Tenebris (Twilight): Shadow-dancer with stealth and deception
- Celestia (Astral): Dimensional mage of cosmic manipulation
- Chimera (Revenant): Mutated hybrid of regeneration and lifesteal
Physics-Driven Combat
There are no prefab hits or animation fakes here. If it connects, it connected simulated and confirmed by the physics engine. If terrain breaks, it really broke. This is combat with causality:
- Destructible Terrain: Collapse walls, open shortcuts, and weaponize your surroundings
- Gravity & Momentum: Every action has mass and velocity — use them or be crushed by them
- Elemental Reaction: Fire, ice, lightning, void — they affect the world, not just health bars
Persistent, Reactive World
Enemy AI adapts. Weather and time-of-day affect traversal and aggression. Factions respond to player activity. Your actions leave permanent marks, both seen and unseen. The world, and its folk will remember your actions.
Endgame: Unstable Zones
After major progression milestones, players unlock Unstable Zones. These are late-game regions where the Void bleeds directly into the world. These zones defy logic and offer extreme risk and unrivaled reward. Expect nonlinear space, true Voidspawn, and terrain that doesn’t play fair.
