Games Workshop video games on Steam unite for this Skull-themed sale and event, and NeocoreGames is proud to announce that Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr is participating as well!

During these days players can take part on a global event in the game in which you are collecting Skulls of the Innocent. By collecting 50 of these (dropped by a certain type of enemy), you will unlock a unique cosmetic item called Mask of the Martyrs for your character. Any character class can wear it, but it won't affect any stats. Because of this, you can keep the mask permanently (the character progress reset at launch won't affect this item). The global event will also have its own leaderboard.

The despicable traitors of the Black Legion are on an unholy rampage in the Caligari Sector, and this time they are not simply wreaking havoc on Imperial Worlds. The Hounds of Abaddon are indulging in an obscene challenge to find the most competent killer among their ranks. They are collecting skulls of Imperial subjects as trophies to prove their worth. We cannot let loyal servants of the Emperor suffer such a horrible fate. Hunt down as many of these Black Legion monstrosities as you can, seize and redeem their dark trophies - the Skulls of the Innocent.

And behold, the item in question, the Mask of the Martyrs looks like this:


The event launches with a new patch and if you buy Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr during the event, you'll get 10% off the full price!

The full game will be released on June 5th, 2018 on Steam, until then, collect the Skulls to claim your Mask of the Martyrs, or follow the official Skulls for the Skull Throne event Stream on Twitch!

Hail, Ascended!

A busy six weeks have passed since our spring update letter, and while it's not quite officially summer, the Rift team is full steam ahead preparing for long days and too-hot weekends where you can escape the heat outside by playing Rift! (If you're in the southern hemisphere, clearly you should also bundle up in a blanket with some Rift in the chilly evenings, just saying.)

Grab your sunglasses and a cold drink and let's get to it - and don't forget your towel!


The recent work on soul balance picked up speed with a significant set of ability updates in 4.4 Hotfix #13, published live on May 16th. This first pass brought a lot of focus on Warrior souls, with the goal of bringing them up to a more competitive state and more fun to play. If you were considering a new alt, now would be a good time to try a Warrior! Additional fixes went in for Clerics, Rogues, and Mages, as well as overall buff stacking groups between callings.

These balance changes are definitely not considered the end of ongoing soul work, but so far appear to bring us to a more even baseline for soul performance from which more targeted changes can be made. High on that list are Legendary Abilities, additional Warrior improvements, and a look at Clerics for both healing and DPS.

We'd like to offer great appreciation to those players who joined us on PTS Omega to review, parse, and give feedback on the combined changes prior to them going live! You can expect some more future patches to roll out in a similar manner, where a set of changes gets compiled over time, sent to PTS, then reviewed before integrating into the Live and Prime update schedule.

Speaking of PTS and content testing, we're about to have the ability to run both PTS Alpha and PTS Omega at the same time with the same patch, with the shards running different (Live and Prime) rulesets. When we get ready to enable them, we'll be taking PTS offline for a couple of days for behind-the-scenes work. It'll be worth it to be able to get both types of testing at the same time!


The Seeker scavenger hunt event started on May 16th, and to be completely honest, there's some pleasant surprise at the collaboration we've seen! You've been teaming up to share coordinates and discussing the hunt on the forums - Rift players are the best. :) Good luck to those still working on the collection, and to those awaiting the challenge results!

Over on Prime, Greenscale made his grand appearance and many of the Ascended rose to the challenge - some of them even met with victory. If you're not quite raid-ready yet, don't fret! Additional changes went in to adjust overpowered Sliver boss abilities, and to smooth out the Prime experience curve. The update also reduced the platinum costs of expanded Role slots for those of you who prefer to have a spec ready for every situation.




While the recent hotfixes have a strong balance focus, on the mid-term horizon we have folks already working on some really great summer events and laying the groundwork for some of our longer term content goals for Live as the Prophecy of Ahnket storyline continues. More frequent bonus events, like this last weekend’s bonus experience on both Live and Prime, are also in the cards. It's hard to talk details on some of these until the patches get closer to complete, but there are definitely some beans to spill. Not too many, though - don't want to spoil the picnic!

Summerfest approaches with the promise of relaxation in Telara - who says an Ascended can't take a vacation from saving the world? New art and dimension items are rolling in, and this writer might be biased, but our artists are killing it! There's also some cleanup work being done to improve the event experience this year.

Summerfest isn't the only world event on the horizon. We've mentioned previously that the team is working on the prelude event for River of Souls on Prime.  While these events may not be in the timeline for Live, they’re going to be fun and challenging content that we’ll be looking to release on all worlds! In that process we've uncovered other events from Rift's past that were not tied to specific holidays or raids, and the team is working on bringing these back for an encore on both the Live servers and Prime.




We have more than balance updates and events planned for Live servers this summer. The team is committed to improving the overall experience on Live servers, and some of the short- and mid-term focuses are:

• Bring more exciting rewards to the Daily Reward Calendar on Live, more in line with the Prime rewards.
• Add rare mount drops to Expert Dungeons and Raids on Live.  These extra rewards for play have been great on Prime, and this one is an idea that’s definitely worth taking to all servers.
• Revamp and reduce the credit store on Live. We're looking keenly at player feedback, especially some recent well-presented player discussions, to improve this area. While we view the store as a place for cosmetics, convenience, and some amount of ability for newer players to catch up with their friends, we don’t want it to be perceived as gameplay replacement, so we’ll be making upcoming changes with that in mind.
• Some may have noticed the recent trend on the Rift store to offer the latest mounts without releasing them inside of a lockbox, and you should expect more of that.
• As an advanced Soul Balance topic, revisiting the Eternal Weapons and their impact on builds.
• Planar Fragments, addressing their level of RNG and costs to upgrade.
• Warfront queue level banding is going to be getting a look in an upcoming test.  The more level bands and warfronts there are, the longer queueing takes.  Our goal here is to speed up the queues while keeping gameplay fun.

We've got a jam-packed summer ahead of us, Ascended. We hope to see you well and victorious in Telara over the next few months!

This weekend will see the release of a myriad of free content across a number of GW license holders so games like Talisman, Talisman: The Horus Heresy, Warhammer 40k: Vermintide 2, Total War: Warhammer and much more will see updates today that will enrich their games at no cost to their users.

As part of the Skulls for the Skull Throne event, Deep Realms will be the very first expansion released by Nomad Games that is FREE for all users.

The Deep Realms expansion for Talisman: The Magical Quest Game features two new Realms to explore: the Wraith Lord’s Domain and the Rat Queen’s Lair. Adventurers may brave the rickety bridge in an attempt to cross between the game boards found in The City and The Dungeon expansions. Heroes can also choose to delve deep into the crypt of the Wraith Lord or the nest of the Rat Queen.

Along with the free release of Deep Realms you can also catch the base game at 75% off and all expansions at up to 50% off whilst the Skulls event lasts.

Not only that, we’re also giving away Rogal Dorn and Samus, two new characters, for Talisman: The Horus Heresy!

The Leafy Games Team
