Set in the world of Telara, players choose between two factions, the Guardians or the Defiant, and embark on an adventure to seal the world-threatening rifts. The game features a dynamic event system, with rifts opening throughout the world, spawning enemies and requiring players to cooperate in order to close them. Rift offers a flexible class system, allowing players to create unique combinations of souls, enhancing their gameplay experience. The game also includes both PvE and PvP content, with dungeons, raids, and battlegrounds available for players.
