RIFT fans who found they spent too much time gawking over today's awesome new RIFT cinematic to actually log in can rejoice: Trion has announced that the fifth phase of beta, originally planned for January 25th to the 28th, will now be extended another day. Players can look forward to playing all night Friday until the servers boot them at 10:00 a.m. PST Saturday morning.

What's the reason for the extension? "We are having so much fun with you in Telara," says RIFT's official Facebook page.

For those new to RIFT or to its current beta phase, Massively's prepared a list of highlights you should check out in the game before the curtain falls on Saturday. And don't forget the current patch notes!

We wrote about some of the issues players were experiencing in Aion open beta a couple days ago. We also mentioned an upcoming patch that aimed to fix it all. Well, it looks like that patch arrived last night. The patch isn't just performance related though -- it also addresses issues with classes, combat, quests, instanced dungeons, and much more.

As a reward to all beta testers for being so helpful and patient, NCsoft has decided to extend Aion's open beta... by six hours. This means open beta will now end Monday 9/14/2009 at 8 a.m. BST (5 a.m. EST). What's that we're hearing? The collective murmurs of "Yeah... um, woot?" Well, it's better than nothing, that's for sure. Some players have urged NCsoft to extend the beta even longer for testing purposes, but we're sure many of them don't want to let go of their characters before the week-and-a-half wait to release.
