Day-one release

Ultimate, PC
With a bright and lively color palette and soundtrack, the developer has dubbedTowerbornea replayable looter brawler experience. It offers an engaging single-player mode and, since this isn’t the game’s official 1.0 launch, Xbox gamers will only have access to couch co-op on console for now. Because it is also a Play Anywhere title, Xbox players will be able to painlessly sync their progress between console and PC.
Stoic has apparently been hard at work to prepare for this Xbox Game Pass launch.A new update will add skill trees toTowerborne’s four playable classes, which were previously primarily distinguished by their weapon type. There will also be no need to pay to respec, as learned skills can be equipped and unequipped on a whim. These changes add even more versatility to playstyle options and replayability, and Stoic will be using player feedback duringTowerborne’s time in early access/Game Preview to influence the direction of future updates.
