Looks like I won’t be regretting every in-game decision I’ve ever made with Stoic’s new gameTowerborne. It’s an action RPG that looks much more light-hearted than the studio’s previous Viking-ish trilogyThe Banner Saga, where I killed every character I loved and made a host of bad choices. Announced during theXbox Game Showcaseat this year’snot-E3, Towerborne looks much more family-friendly. Which is lucky because you’ll be wanting to grab family members, as it’s also a co-op adventure. Check out the trailer below.

This all takes place in an area called The Wilds, home to a bunch of beasties and areas to explore. In a team of three, you’ll be able to mix and match your combat to a playstyle suited to you, and with the ability to further customise your character it’s unlikely that in couch co-op (or online matchmaking) you’ll be fighting next to someone with the exact same build - so that’s cool.
Towerborne will release on Steam, Game Pass, and Xbox Series S/X consoles. No word of a release date yet but it’ll be out sometime in 2024.
