About Temporal Rift
Temporal Rift is a modded, whitelist-only Vintage Story server focused on community, immersion, and long-term world building. We run a curated modpack that expands the base game with new creatures, guilds, trains, portals, skills, and more — without losing the soul of what makes Vintage Story special.
The server has been running since early 2026 and features an active, tight-knit community. We run regular events and encourage players to form guilds, claim land, and build lasting civilizations together.
What's on the Server
Rust & Railroads
Build rail networks and operate coal-powered trains across the world. Connect your settlements with iron tracks.
Portals Reborn
Craft and link portals to create fast-travel networks between your bases and guild outposts.
Wild Creatures
Dozens of new animals — big cats, elephants, horses, dinosaurs, dragons, and more roam the wilderness.
Expanded Food & Cooking
A Culinary Artillery, Expanded Foods, Farmer's Delight and more. Cooking is a real craft here.
XSkills & Classes
Level up skills through use, unlock specializations, and define your role in the world.
Building & Décor
