The MMORPG from Trion Worlds, Rift, has announced that is going to be the latest addition to the growing list of titles on Origin, EA’s direct-to-consumer gaming platform.

Starting today, gamers can purchase on Origin both the Standard and Ashes of History editions of Rift for $19.99 and $29.99 respectively, and join fellow Ascended from around the globe in the fight against the planes. For a limited time, purchasing through Origin gets new Rift players in-game bonuses, a adorable Screechling Vanity Pet and the Ascended Gift Pack, a goodie bag filled with stat-bumping treats that give players the edge they need to vanquish the Blood Storm.

Ascended Gift Pack includes:

- Words of Might (5) – Temporarily increases Dexterity, Strength, Intelligence, and Wisdom
- Essence of Magic (10) – Restores a small amount of mana
- Essence of Health (10) – Restores a small amount of health
- Soul Nectar (20) – Restores a moderate amount of health and mana over 10 seconds
- Spirit Woven Backpack – 10 slot bag

The development team is currently working on the seventh major patch for the game, which will be available soon.
