Splish, Splash Rift’s about to take a bath, the MMO is headed to the Plane of Water in Rift’s newly revealed expansion, Nightmare Tide. In a producer’s letter to the community, Executive Producer Bill Fisher explains Nightmare Tide as being the expansionary response to the age old question of “what’s on the other side” or more specifically, “where are all these horrific things coming from?!”
Within the Plane of Water, players will find a realm of “nightmares, dreams, madness and danger” as they dive into new open-world zones filled with new enemies, allies and end game content. Since this is a full expansion, the level cap will be raised to 65 and new mastery traits will be unlocked for players to use. These masteries are based on your calling and have been designed to provide more variety in soul builds and synergies.
New dynamic battles and new Nightmare Rifts ensure players will see plenty of action out in the open water world with promises of scaling content to ensure the action is always of the appropriate magnitude. Nightmare Tide will feature a “ton of new loot”, but Fisher did say the best gear currently in-game would last players “all the way to level 65 – and a bit beyond”.
Fisher refrained from mentioning any specific details regarding release, but he did mention the expansion would launch sometime this year. For more expansion info check out the full Producer’s letter here.

OPTIMIZE YOUR DAMMN GAME ENGINE FIRST and then add expansions FFS!!!
Maybe get a computer that has more than one core in it. Optimize your p.o.s system loser.
Rift doesnt support multicore, so stop talking bullshit.
you don’t know what you’re talking about , everybody knows how crap Rift engine is. So STFU!
try not to play it from a 2005 laptop is not wow sir.
Keep on prodding that dead horse Trion.
…or don’t and move on to make a game that isn’t terrible.
i hope they did not make many features that require money in this expansion.
That shark mount looks kinda dumb 😛 So glad I never stayed with this game
no poneys here…. glad u left.
Disappointed.
The latest patch brought many features that require money (classes), the number of players does not increase, and there are numerous comments on the advantage of the equipment purchased by the shop (on the forum).
The game will be forgotten with the release of ArcheAge.
Btw, ArcheAge taking too long to launch, it will be late. It is a fact.
I even got sick testing the Russian version, I think the amount of people watching the stream twitch show a massive disinterest…
Ops,”Twitch Stream”.
Mounted son
whats a “mounted son”?
similar to a “fortunate son”.
