Rift Commando is a top-down 3D shooter about one very busy soldier. Rifts are tearing open all over the world, and each one dumps a different invasion on the other side: shambling commuters, crop-circle aliens, unionized robots, swamp things with three heads and three opinions, and a game-show dimension where the rules are made up and the host is armed.
Pick your nation, drop in, and survive the waves. Every level-up brings a requisition drop: three cards, pick one, and watch your loadout turn into something the manual never covered.
How to play
- Move with WASD or the arrow keys. Your gun aims and fires on its own at the closest threat.
- Hold the left mouse button to aim by hand when you want a specific target.
- Dash with Space or Shift. You’re untouchable for a split second, so dash through attacks, not away from them.
- Throw your special (frag, cryo and more) with E, Q or the right mouse button.
- Pick up XP, coins and rations. A glowing red circle on the ground means something is about to land there.
The five worlds
- Gridlock City: zombies at rush hour. Shoot a car and its alarm pulls a horde; keep shooting and it blows up on them.
- Crater Zero: a crashed ship is turning farmland into a hive.
- Foundry Nine: a rogue AI decided the world needs more robots.
- The Tri-Mire: everything in this swamp grew three heads.
- The Lost & Found: where every lost thing in every universe ends up, hosted live.
Tips
- Keep moving in wide circles. Standing still is how hordes win.
- Heavies are armored in front. Circle them and hit the back.
- Near-misses count as close calls and feed your combo. Dash late, not early.
- Spend coins in the armory between missions. Small upgrades add up fast.
