Rift's First 20 Levels Now Free To Play
so you can play the game f2p but you only be stuck at level 20
Trion Worlds has announced that Rift's new Carnival of the Ascended patch is now live, and added an enticement for adventure-minded players who haven't yet explored the game. Along with the content update comes Rift Lite, which gives anyone with a Trion account access to the game's first 20 levels, at no charge and with no time restrictions.
In the past ten months, Rift has evolved at a breakneck pace, through seven massive updates that set new expectations for live MMOs, in features, in content, and in service, said Scott Hartsman, Rift's executive producer and Trions CCO. We think a Lite edition with no time limit is the best way for players to see what an amazing experience Rift continues to be.
If you've been curious about the game but haven't mustered up the motivation (or cash) to check it out, now's a great time to play the game and see if it's for you. Adam raved about it in his not -a-review, and Trion has been regularly adding new features since he first wrote about it.
Trion says the Rift 1.7 update adds the following improvements and additions:
PvP Improvements - Smoother advancement and better rewards
Ascended Weddings - Share eternity with your soulmate, Telara-style
River of Souls Chronicle - Undead adventure for two
New Master Mode Dungeon Caduceus Rise
Expert Dungeon Overhaul - More options, better loot!
Better Endgame Equipment - Improved loot for your endgame Ascended
Also, look for a new world event in the coming weeks. Trion says players will be able to get special loot and prizes as Telera experiences its "largest and most spectacular" event yet. And now you'll be able to see for yourself without cracking open your wallet.
