Guild Wars 2 is set in the world of Tyria which has been invaded by various threats over time, some of whom eventually allied with the other races and others who remained hostile until they perished.
Now a new threat approaches in Secrets of the Obscure and ArenaNet posted an article with a few details about them.
Rifts will be the main way these invaders, called Kryptis, are deployed to the world. Previously, they apparently roamed invisible but now we get to see all their fleshy bits.
Initially, the players will encounter the rank-and-file Kryptis around the rift but as the event progresses, the enemies will become tougher, culminating in a champion fight.
Once you mop up the floor with the damage sponge, you will be able to close the rift, at which point you are awarded currency that can be used to craft weapons and armour as well as lure for the more powerful Kryptis.
If the wording on the post is anything to go by, these should be soloable or at least small groups should be able to complete them but a future update will deliver rifts that are designed for larger groups of players.
Rifts will be present in central Tyria, which is the base game's map, Cantha and Crystal Desert from End of Dragons and Path of Fire expansions, respectively.
