Early Access Roadmap for Lost Rift
[p]Hello, Rifters! It’s hard to believe it’s already been two weeks since Lost Rift opened its doors to the world. From the first steps onto Pioneers' Landing to the countless expeditions and close calls since, watching our entire community explore, survive, and share your stories with us has been incredible. We want to take a moment to thank every single one of you who joined us for the Early Access launch. Your enthusiasm and feedback have meant the world to our team.[/p][p]We know the journey hasn’t been without its bumps. Some of you have faced bugs or strange anomalies that even our best techs couldn’t have predicted. We hear you, and our team is hard at work tackling these issues that you've raised. Your reports through Discord and the Steam forums have already helped us identify and resolve several key issues. That process will continue until Lost Rift feels as stable and immersive as it was meant to be.[/p][p][/p][h2]Confirmed in Development[/h2][p]We have had many requests from excited players since our EA launch, asking us what's being added to the game. Today, we’re excited to share a glimpse of what’s next with our initial Early Access Roadmap.[/p][p]Please note that this is just a first look and not the full, exhaustive list of all our Early Access plans. It only includes things we're ready to share with the community, and there's more to come. [/p][p][/p][p]![]()
