Updates to the 2026-2027 roadmap.
Announcements

Last Updated: October 26, 2026

As we head into the final stretch of 2026, there's still plenty to look forward to. From Radiance and the final Regional Qualifiers to our first-ever set of Regional Championships, the rest of the year is packed with opportunities to play, compete, and celebrate Riftbound with communities around the world. 

We're also ready to start looking beyond this year. While there are still a few surprises we're keeping under wraps. Today we're sharing our release schedule for the first two sets of 2027, including Legacy, Proving Grounds, 2nd Edition, and The Reckoning, along with some key events and milestones. 

As always, this roadmap is a snapshot of what's ahead. We'll continue updating it as more details are finalized, but for now, here's what the months ahead have in store for The Rift.

Note: All dates below are local to the event’s location.
