  Patch 0.10 – Beyond the Arena

  Patch 0.10 – Beyond the ArenaFour months of development. A new way to play. New characters. New armies. New lore. New systems. And a whole lot more chaos.Riftborn has grown beyond the arena.Since April, I've been continuously building, testing, breaking, rebuilding, balancing, recording, optimizing, and expanding the game. Some ideas started small and became entire systems. Others changed completely along the way.The biggest of those experiments became Covered Wagon Mode, a persistent journey that takes Riftborn's battles onto the road.But that was only the beginning.Magitings have arrived. Fate Drops have expanded the Gilgamesh lore. New armies are entering the Rift. AI and targeting have been reworked. The battlefield has been visually rebuilt. Audio has undergone a massive pass. New status effects have been introduced. And months of performance work have gone into supporting increasingly ridiculous battles.This is the biggest Riftborn update yet.Four Months in the RiftApril – The Arena Begins ChangingNew creatures entered the battlefield. Melee feedback improved.
