Game:Rift: Planes of Telara  

Story

A powerful magical explosion has left the veil between Telara and other planar dimensions thin and torn. Treacherous and powerful, rifts can occur when two planes intersect, allowing passage between different dimensions. Planar rifts may grant otherworldly power to those brave enough to seize them, or they may be the doorways to invasion.

Now, no part of Telara is truly safe. A sudden invasion could happen anywhere. And rumors abound of rifts which become gateways to enter these mysterious otherworldly planes. Some are drawn to experience these phenomena for themselves, while others snap into action to defend our sacred land from unknown dangers.

Description

Join legions of adventurers in Rift: Planes of Telara, a new fantasy Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game set in a world being torn apart. Rifts violently rip into reality across the land and release powerful forces that threaten the very existence of Telara. Each breach brings with it new characters, events, and treasures, while the world itself changes dynamically around you.

Play with your friends across vast, lavishly detailed environments, or take them on head-to-head in challenging Player vs. Player (PvP) combat as you battle to uncover the secrets of the planes. Build and advance your character, choosing from several distinct races and utilizing an innovative new class system with nearly limitless possibilities.

The rifts have divided the people and endanger the world. Whether you fight to seal the rifts forever or harness their power for your own benefit, epic adventures lie ahead.

Key Features

• Rifts – As rifts tear into the world, they twist reality around them, presenting a new, massively social Player vs. Environment (PvE) experience, and enabling players to take part in the defense against planar invasions. Once triggered, a rift opens a doorway, allowing plane-touched, magical creatures to spill forth into Telara, motivating players to organize, fight together, and reap greater rewards. For instance, rifts opening from the Plane of Life choke and corrupt the surrounding areas with deadly, primeval flora, while mutated planar invaders pour through the rift to besiege Telara.

• Dynamic Layered Content – The world of Telara is filled with thousands of unexpected encounters, from wandering merchants to explosive rifts unleashing massive planar invasions, creating an experience that goes beyond static quests and story arcs. Rift's dynamic layered content redefines the meaning of a living, breathing online world.

• Unique Class System – Shape and progress your character with Rift's unique class system as you see fit, with hundreds of possible combinations. Earn and embrace the souls of Telara's ancient champions in order to gain their unique powers and abilities.

• High Definition Graphics – Stunning visual depth brings unique conceptual designs to life. Advanced lighting techniques and intensely detailed characters and creatures set Rift apart from any other MMO on the market.

• Opposing Factions – In a land under siege from otherworldly armies, the champions of Telara have become divided and must choose sides in an ongoing civil war. The oath-bound Guardians fight to restore the faith of a world that once was, while the reckless Defiant seek to unearth long dead technologies to usher in a new age.
