RIFTSTORM Set to Launch in Steam Early Access on August 11

Helldivers-inspired co-op extraction shooter RIFTSTORM is preparing to enter Steam Early Access on August 11, bringing fast-paced squad-based combat, deep character progression, and plenty of loot to discover.

Developed over the past five years, RIFTSTORM places players in the role of powerful “Weavers” as they battle through dangerous missions, recover valuable resources, and customise their builds with a wide selection of weapons and upgrades.

Players can choose from five unique Weavers – Rook, Starling, Hertz, Botsy and Caracal – each offering different playstyles. Alongside these characters are around 30 weapons and a wide range of in-mission upgrades, allowing squads to experiment with different strategies as they tackle increasingly challenging encounters.

The game combines extraction shooter mechanics with cooperative gameplay, encouraging teamwork while rewarding players who are willing to push deeper into each mission for greater rewards.

With its Early Access launch just around the corner, RIFTSTORM aims to continue expanding throughout development with community feedback helping shape its future.

We’ll be jumping into RIFTSTORM here at WildStarGaming and will share our impressions once we’ve spent time with the Early Access build.
