300 years in the future, our shattered Earth is recovering from the Great Cataclysm. An event that wiped out human civilization, brought about the return of magic, and has made Earth into something both familiar and alien. Humans transform and augment their bodies with bionics, robot exoskeletons, psionic-inducing brain implants, chemicals and magic to survive.
Tears in space and time –the Rifts– are doorways to anywhere. Open one and step through it to travel anywhere on the planet in a matter of seconds. Alien and supernatural beings use them to travel across the Megaverse® to arrive on Earth. You are one of the champions, the heroes of mankind, or an explorer or truth-seeker who braves the savage wilderness and dares to face the demons, dragons, aliens and weird creatures from the Rifts.
More than 30 unique player characters, including mutants, dragons, Crazies, Juicers, Glitter Boys, Cyber-Knights, Ley Line Walkers, Bursters, Psi-Stalkers, Mind Melters and more.
