Towerborne is leaning into early access to ensure a successful launch


Towerborne was first revealed at last summer's Xbox Games Showcase, but little has been shared of the game since so you…

Outside of the game's central city for the typical suite of character customisation and management, the world map consists of hexagonal tiles that gradually widen out through exploration. Tiles represent battles, bosses, collectible items and more, and are labelled with a danger level from one to four (at least in early access, this could range higher at release) to allow players to balance difficulty and reward. But that's on purpose: Towerborne will properly release day one on Game Pass, but a Stoic representative at Gamescom told me the subscription service is "too powerful" for early access.
