They showed it earlier in the year as well, looks interesting. A 4 player hack and slasher.
The free to play thing is pretty surprising.

Stoic wtf are you doing?!
“Towerborne is sold for a fixed price during Early Access. Becoming a Founder by
purchasing a Founder’s pack will get you early access to play Towerborne, and with your
help we will fine tune the game on its way to a full, free-to-play release.
We want to take a moment and let you know that Stoic is committed to the following:
● To play during Early Access, players must purchase a Founder’s Pack.
○ As a Founder, you play a crucial role in bringing our vision of a dynamic
and immersive world to life. Your support helps us create an experience
that will captivate and entertain for years to come.
○ As a Founder, you will receive an item each month upon login during
Early Access, as a reward for your ongoing support and to enhance your
in-game experience.
● When Towerborne exits Early Access it will be free-to-play.
● For both Early Access and Free Players, ALL updates will be free and NO
gameplay will ever be gated behind paid DLC.
○ Weapons, gear, or any and all forms of power-progression will never be
behind a paywall. We will be selling exciting cosmetics and must-have
convenience items – but those will not influence your power progression."”
I was willing to buy this game, genuinely was looking forward to it. Not sure how I feel about it becoming F2P while milking early access users lol.

PS, Nintendo and Xbox's first party output this year have all looked ass to me to be fair. Tho, this discussion serves no purpose in this thread.
