Summerfest Is Back In RIFT

Summerfest has returned to RIFT.

Though the holiday’s roots are steeped in ancient elven rituals involving sacrificial wicker figures — practices now banned and largely forgotten — it has since transformed into a joyous seasonal event. The event means fun and festivities for players of the free-to-play MMORPG.

They can take part in activities like Scavenger Hunts, battling the Swarmlord Khargroth, completing seasonal quests, and smashing Artifact Pinatas. This year’s Summerfest runs until July 30, with the special store remaining open through August 6 so players have more time to get the event-exclusive rewards.
