Third-quarter financial reports are out for MGI, which is the company that owns Gamigo and more recently acquired KingsIsle Entertainment, developers of Wizard101. In the future-looking details in the report are some hints for the future. Looks like Rift will get its first major update in years in Q1 2022
When it comes to Rift, the game has been stuck in limbo since its last major content update in late 2017. Many probably forgot about the game even still running since the flurry of acquisitions and changes over the years for the company. Yet, here we are, with Rift getting new content. With zero information as to type or scale of the update, it seems we’ll have to wait and see if it brings anyone back.
