2.0.0

Riftgate 2.0.0

Riftgate 2.0, rebuilt from the ground up. It installs over your current Riftgate and keeps your library, shows, books and settings. New look, rebuilt from scratch: a living rift portal, gem-cut cards that glow in your theme's colours, and one design across every section.

Which file do I download?

Your computer	Download
Windows 10 or 11	Riftgate-Setup-2.0.0.exe (112 MB)
Mac with an Apple chip (M1 or newer)	Riftgate-2.0.0-arm64.dmg (128 MB)
Mac with an Intel chip	Riftgate-2.0.0.dmg (134 MB)

Not sure which Mac you have? Apple menu → About This Mac: "Chip: Apple M…" means Apple chip, "Processor: Intel…" means Intel.

The other files here (.zip, .blockmap, latest.yml, latest-mac.yml) are what Riftgate's automatic updates use. You don't need to download them.

Already have Riftgate on Windows? You don't need to download anything: Riftgate offers this version by itself, asks before installing, and keeps your library, shows, books and settings.

Windows first install: a blue "Windows protected your PC" screen may appear the first time. Riftgate isn't digitally signed yet. Click More info → Run anyway. It only happens once, because later updates install through the app.

Mac first install: open the .dmg and drag Riftgate into Applications. The first time, right-click → Open (or System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway). If macOS says the app "is damaged", run xattr -cr /Applications/Riftgate.app in Terminal and open it again. The Mac version can't update itself yet: download the new .dmg for each new version. Your library and settings are kept.

New

• What do you want to do today? Pick a mood (Play, Play free, Watch, Read or Surprise me), narrow it down, and the rift picks the one thing for you, skipping what you've finished.
• Nexus, one page with what matters right now: free games, cinema, new episodes, deals, new series and anime, and what you were in the middle of.
• Your interests. Tell Riftgate what you love and it leads with that; anything you mark Not for me leaves the menu.
• Themes. 20 built-in themes, plus a studio for your own: colours, light or dark, glass, soft, neon, brutal or rounded surfaces, background patterns, fonts and your own pictures. Share them as files or with everyone in the community gallery.
• The Journal. Mark anything as playing, watching, reading, planned, completed, on hold or dropped, rate it with gems, track progress and keep a note.
• Every See all pages through everything available online, about 100 at a time, with no limit.
• Rows can be dragged into the order you like in every section.
• Theatre follows where you live (country, your city for showtimes, and the streaming services you have), and new series show where they stream.
• Applications. Anyone can put forward an app they made for the admins to publish.
• Ctrl+K searches everything at once, and goes anywhere.
• Did you know? A fact from the world you're in along the bottom of Riftgate: games, films and series, or books.
• A guided tour on your first start, and a short one whenever something new arrives (Settings replays it).
• Choose the card size, from small to huge, and colour every card by what it is, in Settings.
• Mature titles show only to adults who turn them on, from the date of birth on your Riftgate account, as before.
• for admins: The Vault (share files for 1 to 24 hours and links for 90 days) and an Admin section to moderate titles and Vault access.

Changed

• Riftgate's icon is blue, like the gem inside the app.
• A picture you choose for a theme fills the whole screen, whatever its shape (Whole picture and Tile are still there).
• Trailers play large and sharp; free games and deals appear instantly and refresh in the background.
• Sign in with your Riftgate account; your password is never stored on your PC.
