RIFT Announces NA Shard Merges to Enhance Player Experience
The developers of RIFT have revealed plans to merge several North American (NA) shards, a move aimed at improving the game environment for its users. This initiative seeks to bring the community closer together, creating a more populated and active world for players to explore and interact within.
The consolidation of NA shards is intended to simplify connections among players, making it easier to embark on adventures and participate in group activities. By reducing the number of shards, the game aims to foster a tighter-knit community, enhancing the overall player experience.
Players on the Faeblight, Hailol, and Seastone shards are advised to transfer their accounts to one of the designated shards: Greybriar, Wolfsbane, Deepwood, or Laethys. The deadline for this transfer is set for March 25, 2024, providing players with a window to make their selection and complete the migration process.
To aid in the transition, RIFT has made a guide available on their official website, offering step-by-step instructions for transferring accounts to a new shard. This resource is designed to streamline the migration, minimizing any potential disruptions to gameplay.
Acknowledging that some players might not transfer their accounts by the deadline, the RIFT team has committed to providing further information to ensure that every player can smoothly transition to their new shard.
