Mythic entities, things that go bump in the night, and impossible doorways to a limitless universe of wonders - and threats - all exist, just beyond sight. Secret societies, hidden wars, and impossible technologies all bend to one mandate: contain the unknown before it consumes us.

You are a Weaver, an elite operative of the Mythic Protocol trained to close rifts, wield supernatural powers, deploy unique technologies, and survive encounters with entities that should not exist. Deploy alone or with up to two friends and take the fight into unstable mythic combat zones where every mission is another chance to bring something dangerous back alive — or make sure it never returns.

Features

Investigate, Contain, Exterminate

The Protocol dictates the mission, you execute.

Investigate anomalous activity. Contain rift outbreaks. Exterminate mythic threats before they spiral beyond control.

Drop into hostile PvE missions, complete objectives, collect weapons and field upgrades, and decide how far your squad is willing to push before seeking extraction. Your deployment, your choice - but be warned: Rift Exposure Zones are not to be trifled with.

Rifts escalate, mythics swarm, and not everyone can make it out.

Wield, Shape, and Unleash Yourself

Weavers are no ordinary operatives.

Each Weaver brings their own abilities, combat identity, and role in the squad. Wield experimental weapons, manipulate rift energy, and harness in-mission Lythogram upgrades to reshape your builds and playstyles mid-mission.

Stack modifiers. Trigger synergies. Turn a clean loadout into something ridiculous by the end of a deployment. The possibilities are yours to explore, and unleash.

Rift Exposure Zones

Some areas are too corrupted to secure cleanly.

Rift Exposure Zones are high-risk areas filled with deadly corruption, unstable rewards, and even deadlier mythics. Push inside to chase better loot and bigger opportunities, or stay clear and keep your current haul safe.

The choice is up to you, and your squad: Go deeper for what might be waiting inside, or extract before the rift decides for you.

Weapon Scarring System

Every deployment will put at risk your favourite weapons.

If you fail to extract, not only will you lose everything you’ve found on mission, and the weapons you brought will not come back unscathed.

Scarred Weapons will replace one or more of its weapon mods with a random negative mod. These weapons remain usable, but scarred until you repair the damage or salvage it for parts.

Not Your Average Extraction Game

RIFTSTORM is not about hardcore tactics, gear fear, or punishing players for wanting to have fun.

This is power-fantasy forward looter-shooter, with the freedom to extract. Become a Weaver. Kill monsters. Build momentum. Push your luck. Extract with your rewards — or come back scarred, rebuild, and go again.

Online Disclaimer: RIFTSTORM is an always online multiplayer game and will require a live internet connection to play.

Launching to Early Access on August 11, 2026

Why Early Access?

RIFTSTORM is built around a power-fantasy sandbox combination of: Weavers, weapons, Lythograms, Periapts, enemies, and co-op teams all interacting in ways that can be difficult to predict.

Our biggest challenge as we expand the game will be controlling power creep. New Weavers and weapons should create more possibilities without making the original roster obsolete. New and reworked Mythics must also remain interesting against both old and new builds. That requires more than internal testing; it requires a community willing to experiment with us.

Early Access will begin with five playable Weavers, an onboarding campaign, curated Threat 1 and Threat 2 missions, experimental higher Threats, online solo and co-op play, matchmaking, Lythograms, and an initial Periapt system.

We expect development toward 1.0 to take approximately 18 to 24 months, although player feedback and the quality of the game will take priority over a fixed deadline. Progression wipes are expected during Early Access, and current progress is not planned to carry into 1.0.

Early Access players will receive an exclusive Rook cosmetic, along with access to a dedicated Discord space for more direct discussion with the development team.

Welcome to the Mythic Protocol

Established in 1954 to prevent conflict between rival occult factions, the Mythic Protocol mandates information sharing and coordinated responses to otherworldly threats. They tirelessly research mythics, secret them away from the public, and meticulously document the knowledge they gather, creating a vital database for those combating the forces behind the Rifts.

The world where the Mythic Protocol exists is very much like our own. This “real-world+1” scenario presents players with a familiar but unfamiliar world to explore, defend, and loot. It is a world where the mythic truth hides underneath the veneer of history and fact - in this world, our world, monsters, myths, and legends exist and the only force that stands humanity and the threats of the cosmos fall under the purvey of the Mythic Protocol.
