Press release:
May 29th, Szczecin, Poland.
The Szczecin-based (Poland) indie games developer Exor Studios are today very thrilled and delighted to announce that they have just released the “Into the Dark” expansion for their sci-fi/hack-and-slash survival game “The Riftbreaker”(the “Metal Terror” expansion is available right now for PC via Steam, GOG, EGS, and the Windows store).

The highlight of the update is the addition of the Crystal Caverns biome, an expansive network of caves, corridors, and caverns that span for miles below the surface of Galatea 37.

The new biome is rich in natural resources, but players will have to face a host of creatures they have never seen before and learn the inner workings of the complex ecosystem of Crystal Caverns.

The paid Into the Dark DLC offers a new branch of the Story Campaign taking place in the underground Crystal Caverns biome. Players can establish a unique subterranean Outpost by excavating soft limestone rock and shaping the environment to suit their needs.

The DLC also includes new research items, technologies, weapons, and defensive towers. The Story portion of this Expansion is integrated with the Main Campaign from the base edition of The Riftbreaker, allowing players to continue their adventure where they left off.
