Developer and publisher Trion Worlds has announced the ninth significant update for the MMO Rift, called Conquest, which is set to arrive during the week and will introduce a range of new features for the player base while allowing them to explore new content.

The features for Conquest include:

– the ability to choose from one of three factions and then engage others in battle in an alternate reality version of Stillmoor, with players fighting in order to control Sourcestone Extractors, then craft war engines and generate bonuses to secure final victory; – the Instant Adventure mode is added to Freemarch, Silverwood, Gloamwood, and Stonefield; – a new mentoring system is designed to help low-level friends while also getting experience for their own character; – a new Barbership is introduced to allow style changes; – a new Sliver allows players to face Fae Lord Twyl in Primeval Feast; – a new scavenger hunt is added to the entire content of Telara.

Later during the year, Rift will get a Storm Legion expansion.
