Soundtrack:Robyn Miller returned to score the remake, both remastering his 1997 music and writing new material — Cyan announced it in April 2024 as music that would 'bolster the already iconic soundtrack of the game with brand-new music'. His stated intent: 'I attempted to evoke the sounds of the original soundtrack but I was writing for an environment that is unique and stands apart from the original Riven.' The first new piece revealed was 'Into the Unknown, Part IV', Riven (Original Game Soundtrack) [Remastered 2024] — released 12 July 2024, 31 tracks: the remastered 1997 score plus four further pieces from the original game and seven new compositions written for the remake. The Bandcamp edition includes a high-resolution scan of the first rough hand-drawn map of the Riven islands, A 2×LP vinyl edition followed on Fangamer (cat. FG41, 21 April 2026): blue-green marbled, 30 tracks across four sides, gatefold with obi, including a scaled-down reproduction of the 1994 first design map.

Cyan self-published the remake and has never disclosed sales figures or revenue — no unit number, no milestone announcement could be found across Cyan's own press releases, Game Informer, Time Extension, UploadVR or Wikipedia. What is on the record: the game launched at $34.99 on PC, Mac and Meta Quest (10% launch discount on PC/Mac, 11% Quest pre-order discount) and discounts regularly since. Steam's all-time peak was 1,659 concurrent players in June 2024. Third-party modelled estimates put owners in the 100,000-200,000 band, but those are inferred and are not a basis for a revenue figure. Critically it did well — Metacritic 86, OpenCritic 87%. Context worth keeping separate from the game's performance: Cyan laid off twelve staff, roughly half the team, in March 2025 while seeking financing for its next project, with a further round in July 2025; neither announcement attributes the cuts to Riven, so no causal link should be drawn.
