Expand your Campaign Mode technology tree by researching unique technologies that can only be acquired in this biome.
Collect information on new creatures, vegetation, and other curiosities found only in this underground environment.
Bring the Great Mushroom Tree back to its former glory by helping it eliminate the parasites that seem to be swarming it.
Adapt your base-building methods to make the most out of the limited building space in the flooded Swamp.

It’s also worth to mention that The Riftbreaker has just recently received the biggest free content update up to this date - World Expansion III. Thanks to World Expansion III, all players can discover the new Fungal Swamp biome in two brand-new Survival Mode scenarios, complete with its unique fauna and flora. The expansion also features more than seventy new technology items players can use in-game, as well as dozens of game optimizations, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements.
The World Expansion III free content update gives the players access to:
Fungal Swamp biome - a complex ecosystem localized in a vast river delta. The warm temperatures and high humidity make it a perfect place for mushroom growth.
Two new Survival Mode scenarios taking place in the new biome. Fungal Forest map is a classic Riftbreaker Survival experience - you explore the map, fight for resources, and build a sprawling base. The second scenario, Fungal Swamp, takes place on a flooded map with limited building space and limited resources, encouraging changes in your approach to gameplay.
New gameplay mechanics: build new, specialized buildings and defensive towers on water, cross pipelines with two different liquids using pipeline junctions, and feed a special neutral creature - Poogret - for gameplay rewards.
Multiple new species of creatures, unlike anything you’ve seen before. Fight hordes of fearsome monsters lurking around every corner.
More than 70 new research items and technologies to further enhance your base and Mr. Riggs’ abilities.
New weapons and defensive towers. Build powerful weapons that will obliterate anyone threatening your base. That includes brand-new, massive, community-inspired 3x3 defensive towers with insane firepower.
Numerous quality-of-life improvements, performance optimizations, and balancing changes.
