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.

The Riftbreaker is running on EXOR Studios’ proprietary Schmetterling 2.0 engine which allows the game to take advantage of advanced raytracing techniques on both PC and consoles.

Thanks to the use of AMD Fidelity FX Super Resolution, the Xbox Series X and PS5 versions of the game are confirmed to be running at 4K resolution with raytracing effects enabled at up to 60 FPS. The Xbox Series S version of the game is confirmed to run at 4K resolution at up to 60 FPS without raytracing effects enabled.

The console versions of The Riftbreaker feature full mouse and keyboard support as well as enhanced gameplay through in-depth implementations of Impulse and Adaptive triggers as well as Haptic Feedback. Players will be able to feel the kickback from their weapons directly on their controller triggers and sense environmental effects like rain or radiation through haptic feedback.

Thanks to EXOR Studios’ partnership with Maximum Games, players around the world will also be able to own The Riftbreaker on a physical disc on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Key Features:

• CAMPAIGN - take on an epic journey across all the different biomes of Galatea 37. You will establish multiple persistent bases across the globe that will fuel your economy. Research alien substances and lifeforms, as well as fight hordes of alien creatures, clearly not happy with your interference in the natural order of the planet. The campaign spans multiple hours and offers a remarkable degree of freedom in a super detailed, procedurally generated world. You can decide on the order of your priorities and what technologies you want to use. You’re the only human there, after all.
• SURVIVAL - your mission is to survive a set amount of time, fighting off increasingly difficult waves of enemy creatures. Each mission in the game is randomized, offering nearly endless replayability. 
• SANDBOX - if intense fight for survival is not your thing either, then try out the Sandbox mode, where we give you control over the entire game – including resources, enemy spawns, and weather conditions.
• 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.
• CUSTOMIZE YOUR GAMEPLAY - The Riftbreaker’s gameplay can be customized to fit your playstyle. You can change the frequency of enemy attacks as well as their strength and numbers, resource abundance, weather events, enemy damage, and tons of other settings. There are also multiple difficulty presets to suit the needs of both hardcore strategy players as well as those that want a laid-back base-building experience.
• INTERACTIVE STREAMING - The Riftbreaker has built-in integration with the most popular streaming services out there. The stream’s audience can actively participate in the game through multiple options, e.g. by voting to send waves of new enemies, spawning environmental disasters like a tornado, or by donating resources.
• THE SCHMETTERLING ENGINE - This game is built using the latest iteration of EXOR Studio’s in-house developed Schmetterling 2.0 engine, which was previously used to create X-Morph: Defense and Zombie Driver.
