Feb 26, 2026Towerborne is a game that’s integrally different from Stoic’s previous work in nearly every way, but you can still feel the studio’s unique voice and personality come through in so much of the world-building and writing. It is a rock-solid beat ‘em up that can take you a long way, especially with friends, but ultimately, I hope the studio gets a chance to return to this world again, because there’s truly a spark of something even more special still hidden in the foundation.

Mar 18, 2026Stoic reworked the concept of Towerborn in response to community feedback, aiming to deliver a more narrative-driven experience. As a result, the game has shed many of the tedious elements that previously felt designed to artificially consume players’ time where it wasn’t necessary. Overall, the reorganization of the entire game was well worth it.
