It’s here. Finally. Towerborne lands on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, Xbox Cloud, and, yeah, Game Pass too. Today’s the day! Let’s dive into this looter-brawler in Xbox Game Preview. Here’s what’ll help kickstart your Ace adventures. Or confuse you more—let’s see.
Try Everything (or Nothing)
Towerborne’s supposed to be easy to pick up. But, there’s a twist—a rabbit hole of combat skills and whacky attack combos. Four classes, each with this sort of vibe defined by weapon choice. Now, think you like one? Nah, you’ve gotta try them all. Dancing between classes is like changing socks—easy and oh-so-rewarding. Maybe you’ll love a setup you didn’t expect to. Or maybe not. Who knows, right?
Mix and Match (Just Like Laundry)
Remember last week? Yeah, me neither, but there was this Class Mastery Update. Super versatile skills, zillions of ways to play. Stuck in a Sentinel mindset? Think again. Fast attacker? Solid defense? Flip a coin. Raw damage, or support your pals—chase whatever build tickles your fancy.
Okay, quick examples because you asked:
- Bleed Build: Sentinel. Bleeding skills. Slow hurts. Boom. Done.
- Sear Build: Pyroclast. Fire tricks galore. Fancy air fights and big booms.
- Powderkeg Build: Rockbreaker. Big punches. Very loud. Love it.
- Projectile Frenzy: Shadowstriker. Lots of flying sharp objects. Looks cool.
- Support Build: Healing stuff. Make your pals happy. Be the hero. Maybe.
Chill, Think, and React (Eventually)
Ever met a sneaky Gobo? Neither have I. They’re clumsy. But some hit hard. There’s no shame in pausing, sort of. Study them. Dodge their goofy tail thwacks or whatever. Gabo taps into the rhythm. Look—recognize—avoid. Then strike. Save those healing Mender’s Flasks for real chaotic moments later on.
Fight Fire with… Bombs?
Weapons aren’t all that slap. Gobos are their own worst enemies. Watch them drop bombs at their own feet and panic. It’s hilariously effective. Might make you laugh—every single time. Some levels even have thorns, barrels, you name it. Bait and blast.
Umbra Friends with Benefits
Umbras. Tiny helpers, big surprises. Iska’s your first buddy, shooting projectiles while you handle things up close. Rack up new Umbra friends as you go. Like Pox with aerial acrobatics or Picus with fiery circles. Use them to match—or mismatch—your playstyle.
Okay, so that’s Towerborne. Hit the Belfry world, get these chaotic tips to work (or not), and explore. Maybe punch stuff—or not. Play it on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, Xbox Cloud, on Game Pass, Steam. Whatever fits your vibe.
