Towerborne Launches on Xbox Game Preview and Game Pass April 29

The arrival of the Class Mastery Update on April 29 marks a significant enhancement for Towerborne, alongside its console and Game Pass debut. This update brings transformative improvements across all platforms worth getting excited about. Here’s a closer look at the highlights:

Cross-Platform Play and Progression: Good news for both PC and Xbox players, as they’ll now be able to join forces regardless of their platform choice—even if it’s Steam. Plus, your game progress will seamlessly carry over across all platforms.

Couch Co-op on Xbox Consoles: This release introduces an exciting ability to gather friends for some old-school local co-op action. With extra controllers in hand, you can now embark on Towerborne adventures together on one screen, evoking the nostalgic charm of classic brawlers.

Class Skills: One of the most transformative additions, Class Mastery, is a new progression system allowing each Ace to grow uniquely, tailored to the player’s choices. By completing missions, players earn Skill Points, which can be used to personalize their class through Focus Skills and Class Mechanics. The convenience of swapping Skill Points between missions lets you experiment until you craft the perfect strategy.

Revamped World Map and Questline: Taking cues from Early Access feedback, Towerborne’s map has been redesigned for a more streamlined quest experience. This includes the strategic relocation of bosses and the introduction of over 50 handcrafted missions, all aimed at making progression more thrilling.

New Umbra Companions: Your spirit companions are getting reinforcements with the addition of Boshi and Querida, bringing the companion count to 11, each offering unique abilities to assist in battle.

New Enemy Type: Brace yourself for the Merk Brawler, a high-impact adversary set to challenge your skills, with more foes expected in the pipeline.

New Legendary Items: Fresh legendary weapons are on the scene, enhancing your Focus Skills with special perks.

Gameplay Enhancements:

• Mender’s Flask: Say goodbye to auto-revives and lives. The new Mender’s Flask lets Aces heal during fights, though teamwork matters as allies can still lend a hand when you’re down.
• Aspect Overhaul: Aspects, which grant extra benefits, have been enhanced to integrate smoothly with the new Class Skill system, refining them to support diverse statistics.
• Job Board: More dynamic daily tasks, a better interface for progress tracking, and additional Writs challenges await you.
• Keybinds: Tailor control settings to fit your personal gameplay style.
• Item Badging: Easily spot new items in your inventory with improved marking.

Social Play Improvements:

• Improved Group Finder: No more sifting through similar groups; now, the Group Finder merges them, streamlining the process of finding the right team to join.
• Player Interaction: Spot a squad around the World Map? Engage with them, invite players to your group, and adventure together in the Wilds.
• Enhanced Friends List: Finding and connecting with friends across platforms is now simpler, with clearer sorting and status indicators.
