  1. 01
    Launch deskDoes RIFTSTORM Demo Progress Carry Into Early Access?

    No. A developer reply states that RIFTSTORM Demo progress does not carry into Early Access because the Demo and launch game are separate builds.

  2. 02
    Launch deskHow to Fix Very Low FPS After the RIFTSTORM Tutorial

    Open Settings, set Simulation Thread Count to 2, then fully restart RIFTSTORM. The developer describes this as a temporary workaround for a post-tutorial low-FPS issue on some high-core-count CPUs; it is not a guaranteed crash fix.

  3. 03
    Launch deskRIFTSTORM Release Date and Early Access Status

    RIFTSTORM is listed to enter Early Access on Steam for Windows on August 11, 2026. The official store does not give an exact unlock hour, so do not treat countdown estimates as confirmed.
