Trion Worlds has three gaming worlds up its sleeve right now, and it aims to talk about all of them at this year's New York Comic Con. In fact, the company has announced that several of its developers will participate in a panel "to discuss the future of [its] online gaming portfolio."
RIFT junkies can look forward to a chat with Design Producer Hal Hanlin and Lore Lead Morgan Lockhart about the studio's upcoming plans for the fantasy MMO, while MMORTS fans will get their PvE and PvP on with Senior Producer Chris Lena from End of Nations. And attendees looking for their shooter fix won't be left out: Rob Hill, Senior Producer for Defiance, will be on hand to cover the MMOFPS and its integration with the Syfy show.
The panel takes places on Friday, October 14th, from 5:15 to 6:15 p.m. EDT in room 1A24. Tickets for the con are still available on the official NYCC website.

Well say what you will about Trion and RIFT but they do make Blizzard look like a bunch of amateurs when it comes to releasing new content and shelling out polished games.

Hmm, It should be extremely interesting to see what Rift comes up with as a part of it's 3 way battle between TOR , it and WOW.

I could live with that, though I would prefer more invasions.

They've been hinting at an Open PvP zone.

Three games? Someone's certainly getting greedy. It would be interesting to see if they can actually pull this off.

I want to hear more on Defiance. The premise sounds interesting.

a new zone would be welcome to players more than anything (I think most RIFT players like dungeons more than rifts now), but I think it's a foregone conclusion that they'll be adding two dungeons if not more.
RIFT is a dungeon game first and foremost which will play properly to it's base for raiding/dungeons.
The key thing for any company is to find what is making people stay and give them more of that. Trion has identified this perfectly with it's fanbase.
