ATTN: Weavers, With RIFTSTORM launching in just a few hours, we’re taking the Steam Demo offline. The reason is pretty simple: we need to focus the team on the main game build. There are still issues we’re actively working through, and at this point we’d rather put all of our development and QA time into getting fixes, updates, and improvements onto the version of RIFTSTORM everyone will actual…
ATTN: Weavers, We are still investigating a performance issue causing some players to experience extremely low framerates, often around 5-9 FPS , in missions after completing the tutorial. The issue appears to be caused by our multithreading settings not working correctly with some high-core-count CPUs. If you are experiencing this issue, congratulations on your high-end CPU. Unfortunately, RIF…
ATTN: Weavers, We’ve just rolled out a new update to the RIFTSTORM demo build. This latest demo update features three playable missions , updated graphics, and a new HQ setting that better reflects the tone, structure, and atmosphere we are building toward for Early Access. The new HQ space is an important part of how we want RIFTSTORM to feel between deployments: less like a menu, and more lik…
ATTN: Weavers, Over the last year of production, one of the biggest challenges we tackled was dialling in our mission structure. After watching hours of gameplay and digging through user data, it became pretty clear that some of our lengthier, more linear missions didn’t quite feel right. They had strong moments, but the overall structure could sometimes feel too much like moving from A to B to…
Dear players, As we count down the days to our Early Access launch, the current version of the RIFTSTORM demo will be temporarily unavailable as we work to reset our servers and upload an updated version. This demo version of RIFTSTORM was uploaded over a year ago and does not reflect the love and attention that we’ve lavished onto the project since. We will be replacing the demo with a condens…
ATTN: Weavers, After nearly five years in development and three massive playtests, we are thrilled to announce that RIFTSTORM is entering Early Access on August 11, 2026 . Many of you who joined our previous playtests already know what happens when our gameplay formula coalesces: unique Weavers, powerful weapons, flexible build configurations, and in-mission Lythogram power-ups can combine into…
Hey everyone, We’ve gotten a lot of feedback, and while our next big focus is progressing with our development plans for launch, we are working on an update out to address some of the demo feedback ASAP. For players who have yet gotten a chance to try the game, it’s never too late to give it a try as we’re leaving the demo up on Steam. It’s back to the grind for us, but from all of us here at R…

Hey everyone, We’re thrilled to announce that RIFTSTORM will officially be joining Steam Next Fest this June! This will be the first time we’re opening the game fully to the public — and we couldn’t be more excited (and just a little nervous) to finally let you all dive into the world we’ve been building. The demo offers a small but intense slice of the game, designed to showcase the core comba…
Hey everyone, We wanted to share a quick development update for RIFTSTORM as we countdown to our next public release. Internal Alpha Updates Internally, we’ve been working on a few big updates from the last public playtest including overhauling the UI for our core systems, slowly transitioning old environments to our new dungeon system (you can read about that here , and building out new weapon…
