The War Against Master Brain Has Begun! The Bullet Heaven Sentai RPG: Rift Rangers, Launches Today!
Posted May 24, 2023May 24th, 2023, Vancouver, BC — Developer Epic Story Interactive has declared war on "The Master Brain" with today's launch of Rift Rangers on Steam and the Epic Game Store!
During the five-month early-access period, Rift Rangers after positive community feedback, the development team added features and expanded content to provide a more authentic tokusatsu experience. With the official launch of Rift Rangers, players can eagerly anticipate a host of updates, unlockables, and captivating additions, including a brand-new level, a new Ranger, formidable enemies, powerful weapons, enhanced interface, engaging game modes, increased language support, and much more!
As part of the update, players will fight evil in the streets on Electric Avenue, where even seemingly innocuous cars are hazardous not only to the Rangers but to the invading monsters as well. Don't worry, that’s not the only surprise in store.
Fresh from the local gym and juice bar comes additional reinforcements; what would any Sentai squad be without the classic enigmatic Green Ranger? A bit of a lone wolf, and firm a believer in “The best defense is an even bigger defense!”, Green has the power to immediately create a defensive perimeter of RiftTech weaponry, making them a formidable bulwark against the forces of darkness.
The rabid razor-clawed monstrosities pouring through the dimensional rift are also getting new allies: the Mech Witch and Titanic Brute, recently drafted into The Master Brain’s forces from the darkest dimensions in the multiverse, they are intent on annihilating the Rift Rangers from the cosmos once and for all!
