He was banished from the tower and fled to the deep caverns of glimmerpass where he made a pact with the Manheim Trading Company to dig for ancient artifacts... He would help to the mining expedition to find hidden secrets and unlock new paths. It was in these void infested places in the deepest darkest caverns he discovered void planting when he met a master herbalist from the company called Renard. This herbalist was experimenting on a dark fusion between plants from the magical forest of Aldora and void seeds found in the mines...[/p][p][/p][p] [/p][h3]We have added unique rare armor sets for every class that gives special set bonuses.[/h3][p][/p][p]ROGUE[/p][p] [/p][p]Phantom - "Ghost"[/p][p]Stalker - "Prowler"[/p][p]Ravager - "Headhunter"[/p][p]Beastmaster - "Predator"[/p][p][/p][p]WARRIOR[/p][p][/p][p]Paladin - "Guardian"[/p][p]Blademaster - "Champion"[/p][p]Tyrant - "Raider"[/p][p]Warlord - "Devourer"[/p][p][/p][p]MYSTIC[/p][p][/p][p]Archmage - "Sage"[/p][p]Lich - "Immortal"[/p][p]Bishop - "Hallowed"[/p][p]Soultaker - "Weaver"[/p][p][/p][h2]New location - "Heavenly haven"[/h2][p][/p][h2]This is a free update?

[h2]A GLIMPSE INTO NEXT EXPANSION: GLIMMERPASS[/h2]

[h3]What's coming in the next free content update?!
We want this to remain a mystery for now.. But soon.. not yet..
[/h3]
(Horde mode, Combat engine upgrade, S+ enchanting, New trade faction and a big suprise)


Internal testing is in full progress. No ETA yet but stay tuned for gameplay reveal coming soon.
Thanks for your support!

Happy new year! Let's take a peek at the next major expansion to Tower Walker with a release date to be announced soon. Prepare your characters to enter the portal to Glimmerpass mines and delve deep into the underground caves to face the Void Lord Molgor. Stay awhile and grind!



[h2]New horde-mode dungeon[/h2]
Those who have attuned to all the previous dungeons will now have access to a new special portal that goes deep underground into the dwarven empire of "Glimmerpass" and into the mines. This will be a different kind of late-game challenging dungeon where you slay hordes of enemies to reach the next phase. We have adjusted some gameplay elements and added a dungeon map. Additionally, we have introduced new precious materials to grind for crafting and a different type of S+ weapon enchanting with cap locked behind progression. This will be more challenging content with rewarding grind.

[h2]S+ Awakening weapon[/h2]
Use artifacts found deep in the mines to awaken S+ weapons and unlock new enchant bonuses

[h2]New faction[/h2]
Gokron merchant guild with a base of operations called "Heavenly haven" in the mines is a mystery


[h3]LORE[/h3]
In the third age the Manheim Trading Company that controls most of the trade routes in the human kingdoms encountered a mysterious merchant race called the Gokron. First contact was made when a caravan was sent out from the gokron settlement of Loktororr in the desert southlands to travel all the way to the human capital of Stormholme and trade priceless artifacts found deep within the dwarven mines in the Glimmerpass mountains. The humans could not know that all trade goods that the gokrons offered was corrupted by abyss magic and spread to all corners of the world for a reason. The gokrons used ancient hidden pathways deep within the mountains for all their trading routes between the humans, elves and the dwarven kingdoms. This made them very rich. Rich enough to take control of all the goblin clans. The gokrons became the overlords of the goblins and ruled them for hundreds of years. The wizards of the tower always knew that the gokrons could not be trusted since they worshipped the Void Lord Molgor also known as the nightshade.

[h3]This is a free update?[/h3]
The expansion "Glimmerpass mines" will be free content that can be fully unlocked by playing the game.

As always, thank you all for your support and feedback. We wish you all a great year 2025!
