Rift is a veteran MMORPG launched in 2011 by Trion Worlds. It had a strong start and maintained a dedicated player base, but it has seen significant decline over the years, especially after publisher changes and a lack of major content updates. As of 2024, it likely sustains a small, niche community typical of long-running MMORPGs without major recent expansions.
