Rift of the NecroDancer Out Now on PC

Is this week even real?! After 3+ years of pouring our hearts into each beat, and a DECADE after launching Crypt of the NecroDancer, we've hit the launch button! Rift of the NecroDancer is Out Now! 3...2...1... LET'S GO! The Rift is fully open for battle! The NecroDancer's back in an all-new rhythm game! Dragged into a strange new world, Cadence must engage in musical combat with monsters surging through the Rift! Face pulse-pounding Rhythm Rifts where every beat is a battle, all set to an original soundtrack by Danny Baranowsky and friends.

What YOU Think
We really wanna know! Come join our Discord for maximum launch hype vibes! We're also on Bluesky now too! We'll also be closely monitoring in-game bug reports. This is just the beginning for Rift, and we're so excited to be on this journey with y'all! You can also hang with us during our livestreams. P.S. The best way to support us is to grab the game during launch week, but if you wanna go the extra mile, we've also released a Supporter Upgrade with a couple cute cosmetics
You can also listen to the OFFICIAL Rift of the NecroDancer soundtrack on Spotify!

Thanks for grooving! With love,

Crypt of the ND was fun, not that I made much progress on it. Crypt had a great soundtrack, and I bet Rift does too. Definitely gonna check it out.

Oh, Brace Yourself Games published Cobalt Core too. Can't give them all the credit for that game's soundtrack but it was killer as well.

I tried the demo and really liked the original mechanics. Will be getting the full game for sure.

Aye, I've never been good at rhythm games, but Crypt had a nice OST

Let me guess. It requires DLSS with 4xFG to be played on 60fps on an RTX 5090 GPU.
Got it!

You don't have to guess. System requirements are on the Steam page.

yeah, rhythm games are very niche/polarizing, they give me the brain "tingling" and I love it.

Gotta love these low requirements:



It runs in dx11, which means any dx10.0 capable card with 1GB VRAM should be able to play it. Uses about 1 GB of RAM, runs perfectly in Win7 :D
