Starfall Prophecy, RIFT's first paid expansion since it went free-to-play, has arrived. Players can now jump into the game and explore the five new zones that make up the Comet of Ankhet. Players will encounter deserts, forests, marshes, and volcanic wastes in their journeys across the comet. They will be able to level up to level 70, take on two new dungeons and one new raid, and take part in massive open world battles known as "Fortress Sieges." Rift Assault Adventures round out the new content as a new type of Instant Adventure.

The expansion also introduces Legendary Powers, which allow people to increase the power of a small number of their abilities, Eternal Items, and the Planar Fragments system, which players can equip based on the affinity of their gear.

RIFT Executive Producer at Trion Worlds Chris Junior had the following to say about the announcement.

Starfall Prophecy has been a labor of love for the entire RIFT team, and we’re excited to see how both new and existing players react to the new territories, battles and increased level cap. Starfall Prophecy is a direct response to player feedback, giving RIFT’s large and passionate audience what they’ve been requesting by removing the MTX unlocks that typically went with past expansions, and delivering all the new content at a single price.

You can buy Starfall Prophecy now via the official website. You can get the Standard Edition for $39.99 or the Deluxe Edition, which includes the Etheral Drake mount, Asha Catari's raiment, and a Ring of Ankhet character portrait, for $59.99.
