We can't even begin to tell you how excited we are to reach this milestone. Only five weeks from now, you will be able to begin your exploration of Galatea 37 in the Campaign Mode, test your skills in the ever-changing Survival, or simply test the limits of the game and your creativity in the Sandbox Mode.

In the Campaign Mode, you will join Ashley and Mr. Riggs on their mission to open a two-way portal from Galatea 37 back to Earth. This task will require you to set up a network of persistent bases all around the planet to gather all the necessary resources - with less than positive response from the local fauna. The Campaign Mode will test your combat skills, as well as base design and economy management. Procedurally generated maps, dozens of technologies to unlock, and complete freedom of choice will keep you busy on Galatea 37 for hours!

In Survival Mode, you will set to endure as long as you can against hordes of enemy creatures attacking you in waves, increasing in strength and numbers all the time. Gameplay in Survival is much faster than in the Campaign Mode. Research timers and requirements are reduced, and bonus technologies are awarded at the start of the mission to aid you in completing those missions.

The Sandbox Mode is the most relaxed of the bunch, allowing you to simply build the base of your dreams and then test it against all the different threats and scenarios you can come up with. In this mode, you have access to the special Sandbox Control Panel, which allows you to spawn every single variety of creature available in the game, enable some cheats, and even change the weather and time of day.

To further expand the replayability and to give you an avenue to unleash your creativity, The Riftbreaker will ship with the full suite of our in-engine development tools that we used to create the game. The Level and Mission Editors will allow you to create custom scenarios and even entirely new campaigns, while the Riftbreaker Editor will allow you to edit drop rates, weapon properties, research trees, and much more.

The release of the 1.0 version will mark an important point in our 3.5 years-long journey through the ups and downs of The Riftbreaker's development process. When we started working on the game in 2018, we never expected that it would get so much attention and gather an amazing community of players from all around the world. The amount of time you put into playing The Riftbreaker: Prologue, the mods you created for it, and the great feedback you've been providing have all made a difference. We are sure that you will like the final result.
Mark your calendars on the 14th of October 2021 for your trip to Galatea 37.
