These new videos come to us by the way of Leakerz.net. They appear to be gameplay videos of a ranger and an elementalist. They also appear to say that beta will start in September. I don’t know what the source of that comment is so take it with a grain of salt. Perhaps they were told that at the show. The videos are after the break.

UPDATE: Some new videos after the break.
UPDATE #2: Some new videos from Rift-News added.

Find out what happens when you don’t close Rifts as the demonstration is shown on a gigantic projection screen. As you can see a large invasion force comes baring down on the players as they defend NPCs. Find out about footholds and how to beat them back.

Take a look at the latest Rift: Planes of Telara Q&A with Scott Hartsman from GameZone. The video is mostly a general description of the game and what Rift is all about and we don’t really learn anything new. However what we do get is some awesome new video.

Check it out.

Big news update today, Rift: Plane of Telara has released new screenshots, concept art and a new video regarding Darkening Deeps.

Underneath the putrefying ruins of a once-stately manor in the gods-forsaken region of Telara known as Gloamwood, a race of vile goblins dwell in a spiraling city of hovels known to Ascended adventures as the “Darkening Deeps.” In new assets released today, Trion Worlds reveals the frenzied and paranoid goblin menace, a decaying sewer system guarded by furious water elementals, and a mysterious power so great that Telaran heroes will risk their very lives to obtain it.

Trion and Rift: Planes of Telara released to the press today a preview of Gloamwood, a zone of dark and boding creatures. This preview consists of a few screenshots and concept art, as well as a fly-through video. This information is released a few days in advance of the IRC Dev Chat with Daniel Steamer. So hit the books kids and take some notes. Also, thanks to Takyn at Rift-News for first pointing everything out.
