Those customers who have pre-ordered Rift can now download the client for the head start scheduled to begin on Thursday, February 24th. For those preferring to wait for the full retail launch, the game will get the full blown green light on March 1st.
Thursday, Feb. 24, 2011 at 10:00 AM PST (1800 GMT) through launch (North America: Mar. 1, at 10:00 AM PST / Europe: Mar. 4, at 1600 GMT).
The forces of the Ascended will soon swell with new recruits as everyone who has pre-ordered RIFT will be able to join in the defense of Telara. Guardians and Defiant alike will take up arms as the six planes invade and the battle against the Blood Storm begins.
If you have the RIFT beta client on your hard drive, be sure to uninstall it before installing RIFT.
Steam™ & Amazon® download customers – If you’ve already downloaded the client from Steam or Amazon, there’s no need to download it again. Just make sure your game is patched!
Pre-order customers – Please remember, you must have a Product Registration Code applied to your account to continue access when RIFT launches (North America: Mar. 1, 2011 / Europe: Mar. 4, 2011).
