RIFT video game passes one million accounts mark and head start kicks off - PC

Trion Worlds announced today that more than one million accounts have been created to date, signaling a high level of interest for the company's first massively multiplayer online game, Rift, which is scheduled to launch March 1st in North America and March 4th in Europe.

 The news hits just as the game's Head Start period begins, giving pre-order customers advance playtime before servers officially open on launch day.


Adventure in the world of Telara as either a noble Guardian or technomagical Defiant and enter a dynamic fantasy where 8 primal forces battle for control in an ever-changing landscape. Build your own class using the Ascended Soul system and embark on epic conflicts that bring you into the story, taking your RPG experience to new heights of achievement and excitement!

Key features
