Hello everyone!
We know how eager you are to play The Riftbreaker. We see your comments everywhere, calling for the game to release already. That’s super awesome because it means that you care about the game. It motivates us to work even harder and to deliver the best product possible. It’s going to take some time, but we can assure you - we’re almost done. In the meantime, we’d like to tell you about some new features that we haven’t shown you before - not to tease you, but to prove that we’re still firing on all cylinders! :)
As you know, in The Riftbreaker you have an entire planet to explore, You will be the first human to discover, research, and catalog the unknown fauna and flora inhabiting this wild world. If you are an explorer at heart, we have no doubts that you will spend some time learning all the Galatean secrets. On the other hand, if wandering about and enjoying the views isn’t your thing, we still have a reason for you to go exploring.
A fountain of loot always brightens up the day.
During your exploration of Galatea 37, you might encounter strange objects with unique properties. Initially, they might look like ordinary rocks, cocoons, or creature nests - but they are far from ordinary. Apart from emitting energy waves, they are covered with an anomalous substance of an unknown origin. Initial scans of the substance revealed that it is actually a living organism, pre-dating anything else on the planet. In fact, the objects under the influence of this organism seem to be frozen in time.
The Guardians range from Ultra-strain creatures to unique, one-off specimens.
The Bioanomalies, as we call them, are great at attracting the attention of Galatean creatures. Before you get close to one of the Bioanomalies you will have to face its guardians. Sometimes that will be a pack of Ultra strain creatures. Ultra strains are bigger than regular enemies, deal more damage, and are much beefier. Meeting those is the best-case scenario for you, though. If you venture far enough into the wild, you will have to face off against unique - much stronger, elemental variants of Galatean creatures. You’ll love them. Or hate them…
You never know what you may find inside.
After you triumph over the guardian, you are finally free to uncover the secrets of the Bioanomaly. The mysterious objects can hold items of great value, that will propel your progress. Most often it’s going to be a fountain of resource shards, ranging from carbonium or ironium to the rarest minerals in the world of Galatea 37. With these newfound riches, you will be able to craft items of immense power and develop new technologies.
What, you thought this cache was unprotected? Think again!
Thanks to the unexplained, strange nature of the Bioanomalies, you can also find other materials inside - including mods, that you can install in your weapons to alter their properties. On top of that, some of the materials that you find will allow you to build new decorations for your Riftbreaker base or alter Mr. Riggs’ appearance.
The Bioanomalies scattered around the map, resource caches hidden underground, and a variety of fauna and flora - they are all there, waiting to be discovered. Exploration pays off on Galatea 37 - make sure to try it out!
