Everyone has a fighting chance
Trove players have a lot to look forward to with today’s deployment of the Rise of the Shadow Tower update. Included in the patch is the new Lunar Lancer class and the new Shadow Tower that pitches players into a series of challenges as they face off against the Daughter of the Moon and her minions. Check out the trailer before heading into the game.
Admit it: You’ve always dreamed of saddling up a giant cat and leaping across the land, manes rippling in the breeze. Now, thanks to Trove – the free-to-play voxel adventure MMO – you’ll be able to live out your deepest meme dreams, conquering the impossible and wrangling a sparkling cat mount under your command. MMORPG.com has the whole kitten caboodle available, so grab a code, hang on tight to your new, sparkling Diameownt, and ride into Trove today!
The Trove team has revealed the first information about the new class coming to the game called the Lunar Lancer. Lunar Lancers will be in fox form and will take on opponents using spears.
Trion has announced that Trove players will be treated to Bonus Chaos after today’s update and continuing through August 31st. Each Chaos Factor will net players two Chaos Chests.
Trove, since launching last month officially on Steam and Glyph, has quickly become the #4 title on Valve’s store, and Trion just today is announcing that 1 million active monthly users log into the voxel-based MMORPG. In short, Trove is a certified hit, and even Trion was caught off guard with its success.
Trove is currently offline for today’s update that will include several new items including Green and Blue manta ray mounts that can be found in Adventure boxes, new loot from Chaos Chests that can feature a boneweaver mount, Arcanium Discord wings, the Chaotic Clipper ship or the Mahogan Toboggan mag rider.
Trove will be updating today with a pretty meaty patch that includes several new auras for Radiant Weapons as well as new fishing trophies determined on the basis of the fish’s weight.
The finalists in the Create a Boss contest have been revealed on the Trove site. Players are encouraged to visit the site to check out the background information and the creative thought behind each of the named finalists. Once done, players can head to the special voting site to voice their opinion on which should be included in Trove at a later date.
It would be easy to take one look at Trove and dismiss it as a cutesy entry into the MMORPG genre that is increasingly hanging its hat on the term "voxel." To do so, however, would be a mistake. It is no secret that Trove is inspired by Cube World from Picroma but instead of blatantly ripping off that indie flash in the pan Trion has spent the past two years developing Trove and has iterated it into something more.
The Trove site has been updated with the new Patron Program for the game. Players can choose an optional "patron subscription" that starts at $14.99 per month (month-to-month) and goes down to $10.99 for a full year’s Patron status. Joining the Patron Program entitles users to a number of great in-game benefits as well.
