The Riftbreaker Receives Two New Pieces Of Content Today

The Riftbreaker has two new releases today as you have a free world update for the game, as well as some paid DLC available now.

EXOR Studios have released a couple of new pieces of content for The Riftbreaker today, as the game got some new paid DLC and a free update. First off, the one they're heavily promoting is the new Into The Dark paid DLC, which will run you $10, brings about a new storyline that branches off the campaign, while also adding a bunch of content for you to utilize throughout the game. Meanwhile, for those of you who can't afford the DLC, you're not out of luck. They have also released the free World Expansion II update, which adds a new biome, a new mode, and several other additions to beef up the game and give it some improvements. We have info about both of the releases below from the devs, as well as a trailer for the DLC.

"The paid Into The Dark DLC offers a new branch of the Story Campaign taking place in the underground Crystal Caverns biome. Players can establish a unique subterranean Outpost by excavating soft limestone rock and shaping the environment to suit their needs. The DLC also includes new research items, technologies, weapons, and defensive towers. The Story portion of this Expansion is integrated with the Main Campaign from the base edition of The Riftbreaker. The new branch and the contents of the expansion will unlock as you progress through the game. If you have previously completed The Riftbreaker Story Campaign, you can continue your adventure where you left off. The additional part of the Story will unlock immediately, giving you the option to explore the new part of the world."
