Slide inside an advanced Mecha-Suit, capable of dimensional rift travel, and hack & slash countless enemies, build up your base, collect samples, and research new inventions. Remember, your presence on this planet will not go unnoticed, so be sure to construct a proper defense system. Try to survive and do what you can to prepare the planet for human colonization.

As Captain Ashley S. Nowak, “the Riftbreaker”, you enter a one-way portal to Galatea 37, a distant planet at the far reaches of the Milky Way galaxy, with the purpose of building up a base that will allow travel back to Earth, and further colonization. Ashley’s Mecha-Suit, which she calls “Mr. Riggs”, can withstand the harshest environmental conditions and has a full range of equipment for base construction, resource extraction, specimen gathering, and of course –combat. It is also capable of traveling through rifts that connect space across vast distances.

Surviving on an alien planet where everything is trying to annihilate you is no easy task. You’re the intruder, and your objectives are something Galatea 37 inhabitants couldn’t care less about. In these circumstances, every piece of advice on how to survive is worth its weight in gold, so learn a trick or two from the latest The Riftbreaker video.

The ultimate goal is obvious. Survive. Build the rift. Jump back home. However, it’s easier said than done, as completing this task in The Riftbreaker™ Campaign Mode will require strategic planning, quick thinking, reasonable resource management, and constantly fighting back alien hordes.

Take a glimpse of how The Riftbreaker's campaign mode takes you on a trip across diverse biomes of Galatea 37. This extended developer commentary video presents how it is to operate a global network of bases and mining outposts in a diverse, dynamic, and persistent world. Explore the planet, uncover its secrets and use that knowledge and resources to construct a rift station that will allow you to go back home to Earth.

Hardcore Microsoft Store fans who haven't tried out the free prologue of the game yet on Steam can try out the free PC demo on the Microsoft Store.

Key Features:

• BASE BUILDING - Your task is to construct a two-way rift back to Earth. This will be a very complex undertaking requiring enormous amounts of energy. Simple solar collectors and a few tons of steel will not be enough. You will need to build up an intricate chain of mines, refineries, powerplants, and research facilities to complete this mission.
• EXPLORATION - Galatea 37 is an unknown planet in the Sycorax belt of the Milky Way. Long-distance surveys have detected that it is inhabitable and perfect for colonization. The planet is full of rare minerals and substances that can be found in various locations around the globe. Varied biomes can surprise you with unknown fauna and flora as well as harsh weather conditions. Construct local outposts in resource-rich locations that will transport the required resources using rift technology.
• DEFENSE - Your presence on this planet will not go unnoticed! As you build up your industry and disrupt the natural order, the world will start seeing you as a threat. Build up your defenses. Construct walls, barriers, and defense towers as the attacks get stronger with every passing day. You will face thousands of hostile creatures trying to eliminate your presence.
• HACK, SLASH, SHOOT - Mr. Riggs can be equipped with powerful weapons and abilities that will allow you to take on the largest of beasts. You will need to be ready to face lots of hostile alien creatures as you scout the planet.
• GATHER SAMPLES AND STRANGE ARTIFACTS - Fallen beasts will drop valuable research specimens as well as rare resources. Use everything you can gather to research and craft new technologies, buildings, weapons, and equipment. You can also scout the terrain using your sensors and dig for treasure buried underground.
• RESEARCH - Use the samples that you’ve gathered to research new technologies that will help you build up your base, improve your defenses, develop new blueprints for your Mecha-Suit, or improve existing technologies.
• CRAFT - Mr. Riggs is fully customizable and upgradeable. Use the blueprints that you’ve researched to craft new parts and weapons. Utilizing better materials for the crafting process results in developing gear with improved properties. Each crafted item has unique properties.
