Trion Worlds has released the in-game introduction movies for the Guardians and Defiant. Check them out to learn more about the factions in Rift!

Trion Worlds has sent us an early holiday gift: the complete introduction movies for Rift's Guardian and Defiant factions! These cinematics are the lore pieces that players will see just after they create their characters, before jumping into the starting zones.

Are you trying to decide whether to make your first character a Guardian or Defiant? Do you want to know more about the story behind this upcoming fantasy MMO? Do you just want to watch some epic videos? Then check out the intro movies after the jump!

UPDATE: It turns out the original Guardian cinematic that Trion Worlds sent over contained placeholder voice-over work. The video has been updated to contain the correct voice acting, which is definitely more impressive. Watch it below!
