The world of Temtem is about to get a whole lot bigger.

We can't wait to start talking about Project Downbelow, a brand-new experience set in the ever-expanding Temtem universe, but we have to control ourselves a little bit longer…

That said, here's what we can say… and show:



A New Journey Awaits…With New Places to Explore…And Mysteries to Uncover

Hi, Tamers! Our Spoiler (working) Week is coming to its end, but what could be more magical and mystical than to close it off talking about Umbras?

Check out day 1, 2, 3 and 4 for all the spoilers!

[h2]Pretty in black[/h2]
Umbras are an even rarer, way darker color variation of Temtem. If Luma Tems are all about different, oftentimes bright colors, Umbra are their gothic counterpart.

Umbras are rumored to have been originated from Galios' power, whose dark energy seems to fuel the black and purple color Umbras share. They were a hot topic during Temtem's development, with the community being torn on whether they were real or not. Sure enough, they were, and will join the Temtem: Swarm's roster in patch 1.0!

Umbras will also be tied to the Prestige System, just like Lumas, but being the more infrequent twin, they'll be achieved after reaching Prestige Level 2.

We've hidden an Umbra Temtem in this picture, can you find it?


This marks the end of our Spoiler Week, just in time for Christmas! We hope you've enjoyed this peek into patch 1.0, and that you're more eager than ever to discover everything in it. We'll continue working hard (after a short holiday break) so that we can bring you great news about 1.0 as soon as we can!

[h2]And a happy holidays from our team![/h2]
We're in the midst of the holidays, and festive cheer can be felt through our office, our homes and our country. With the best wishes from the Crema team, we hope your holidays are warm, cozy and filled with love and affection.

Happy Holidays, Tamers! Thank you for your attention during this week, and for one more year of your invaluable support.

We'll see you soon, but until then: have fun, be merry, and Temtem up! 💖

Hello again, and welcome to a slightly belated day 4 of the Temtem: Swarm spoiler week! We're nearing the end of it, but today's post is going to delight most of you because we're going to talk about one of the new playable Tems and its very interesting evolutions.

 
[h2]Triple threat[/h2]
First up, a riddle: this Temtem is technically part of a three line evolution, but that doesn't mean it evolves twice. Can you guess who it is??

If you guessed Venx, you are absolutely right! This Neutral Temtem is the newest addition to the playable Temtem roster, and it's such a special one because of its exclusive, split evolutionary path.

Venx has two possible evolutions: a mental one, called Vental, and a Melee one, called Venmet. In OG Temtem, Venx would evolve into one or the other depending on the Trait they had, but that's not the case for Temtem: Swarm, since Tems here all initially have one Trait. Instead, once Venx levels up enough to evolve, the level-up screen will give you the option to choose whether you want to continue playing with Vental or Venmet.

While the three of them share Venx's Trait, Vental and Venmet have very different stats, access to different Technique pools, and a unique Ultimate each! Regardless of Venx's cool split evolution, you can choose not to evolve it, like with any other playable Temtem. It has its own set of stats, Technique pool, and unique Ultimate, but since its Trait works to empower the attacks of its evolutions, we recommend evolving! We're really intrigued to know which evolution will be more popular among Temtem: Swarm Tamers.


We hope you've been enjoying these posts, and that you're excited to see what we're going to share tomorrow today!
See you then, Tamers!

Hello Tamers, and welcome to another entry in our Spoiler week! We're starting off strong this week with a first look at Luma Temtem, and a little bit of insight on how to get them. Let's go!

 
[h2]The shinier, the better[/h2]

Luma Tems are a staple in our original multiplayer creature-collector game, Temtem. These Tems are way rarer than their normal counterparts, and sport different, fun colors, making them a sought-after treat for many Tamers. We knew from the start that we wanted to include these exceptional variations into Temtem: Swarm, and patch 1.0 will be the perfect stage for these stars to shine!



By now you might be wondering how to get your hands on a Luma in Temtem: Swarm, so let's learn about the Prestige System.

 
[h2]The Prestige System[/h2]

Lumas in the OG Temtem game are luck-based, with a 1/2000 chance of showing up, but it will not be the case in Temtem: Swarm. Games in the survivors genre, like Swarm, have an undeniable RNG factor in the form of Technique pools, projectiles firing off and more, so we wanted the road towards Luma variations to be a certain, straightforward one free of RNG.

That's where Prestige comes in: win a match with a fully upgraded Skill Tree, and then reset said SK to unlock Prestige Level 1. Perform this loop more times to unlock further Prestige levels, each of which will grant you bonuses, like new passives for both that Temtem and all playable Tems, and other juicy rewards. The Luma version of a Temtem is unlocked after winning a match at Prestige level 1, and from that moment on you'll be able to choose between the Luma version and the regular version of the Tem at the character selection menu.

This means playing consistently with a Temtem is a guaranteed way to eventually obtain its Luma, as well as unlocking improvements for it. No luck involved in this process!

 

We hope you're ready to work hard for your favorite Temtem's Luma, Tamers! There's much more to the Prestige system than what we told you today, but we don't want to spoil everything for you just yet! You'll be able to discover it for yourself once patch 1.0 hits the platforms.

See you tomorrow for the exciting reveal of one of the new playable Temtem. Don't miss it!
