Get ready, gamers! Towerborne is gearing up for an exciting update on April 29, which promises to be a game-changer. With the Class Mastery Update, fans can look forward to enhancements across the board for this beloved game, which is also making its way to consoles and the Game Pass. Let’s dive into what you can expect.
First off, we’ve got Cross-Platform Play and Progression. Whether you’re on PC, Xbox, or even playing through Steam, you can now link up with your friends, regardless of their platform of choice. Even better, your game progress will carry over between platforms, so you’re never tied down.
Now, for Xbox console owners, here’s a treat: Couch Co-op. It’s time to invite friends over, grab a few controllers, and relive that classic local co-op feeling we all love from back in the day. Sharing a screen while battling it out in Towerborne will definitely bring back some nostalgic vibes.
One of the standout features of this update is the all-new Class Skills system. Every Ace will now have a unique progression path. Completing missions now awards Skill Points that you can use to customize your class. This lets you unlock Focus Skills and Class Mechanics that cater to your playstyle. Don’t worry about making the wrong choice—you can freely reassign these points between missions, giving you plenty of room to test and tweak your build.
The game’s world map and questline have also seen some redesign based on player feedback from Early Access. Expect a more streamlined quest path, new boss locations for added excitement, and over 50 meticulously crafted missions. The adventure just got a whole lot more engaging.
With the new update, Umbra, your spiritual companions, are getting a boost, too. Two new Umbra—Boshi and Querida—join the lineup, making a total of 11 companions, each offering unique abilities to aid you in the heat of battle. Speaking of battles, prepare to face the Merk Brawler, a formidable new enemy type ready to challenge your skills.
Loot hunters will be thrilled with a suite of New Legendary Items, each designed to complement the new Focus Skills. Keep your eyes peeled for perks that truly enhance your gameplay experience.
Players will also notice some significant Gameplay Improvements. The introduction of the Mender’s Flask changes the dynamics, as this new consumable lets Aces heal during combat. Plus, while lives and automatic revives are no more, your team can still bring fallen comrades back into the fray. The impact of Aspects has been rebalanced to better mesh with the fresh Class Skills, setting your Ace up perfectly to defend the Belfry.
There’s also an overhauled Job Board with more variety and an updated interface to keep track of your quests. And with customizable Keybinds, you’re in control of shaping your gameplay experience. Tracking new loot is now a breeze, thanks to the clean new Item Badging system.
On the social side of things, the Towerborne team has smoothed out the multiplayer experience. An Improved Group Finder makes teaming up simpler, with single, streamlined group listings for each type. You can now see and interact with groups of Aces on the World Map, making it easy to form a team and venture into the Wilds. An enhanced Friends list also makes it easier than ever to connect with fellow players across platforms.
