We've just had a really busy summer season of showcases (try and say that three times quickly!), and amidst all the amazing announcements, we saw reveals for a whole bunch of first-party Xbox games coming out in 2024 and beyond.
But what about Towerborne? This adventure game from the creators of The Banner Saga didn't make an appearance whatsoever at the Xbox Games Showcase, but it's definitely still scheduled for release at some point this year.
As you can see in the tweet above, the Towerborne team recently went into more detail on what to expect from the game's "forward operating base" known as The Belfry, reiterating at the same time that the game is coming in 2024.
It's also now been revealed that Towerborne will show up at Gamescom 2024 in late August, which means we're assuming a release date will be announced in a couple of months' time. All being well, we should be getting a chance to play it on Xbox Game Pass in the not too distant future!
If you haven't been keeping up, here's more information about what to expect from Towerborne:
"The Belfry stands as a beacon of hope and safety amongst the ruins of humanity and the City of Numbers, with monsters lurking right outside the tower’s walls. You are an Ace, born anew from the spirit realm with the skills, the grit, and the determination to protect the people of the Belfry."

This isn't on my wishlist - I don't think its 'my thing' at all and I certainly am not excited for Towerborne. I've never had any interest in the Banner Saga either.
With games like Indiana Jones, Stalker 2 and BO6 coming to Game Pass, let alone games like AC: Shadows and Star Wars: Outlaws, I cannot see myself even wanting to 'try' this...
This screams a shadow drop to me.
@BAMozzy That’s a lot of words for “I’m not sure why I clicked on this article.” You should have just clicked the back button instead.
I’m super excited for this. There are not enough co-op games. I’m hoping it will fill the Streets of Rage 4 shaped void in my heart.
Played the beta. It’s a lot of fun! Can’t wait for the full release!
@RBRTMNZ Not really - just because I don't have 'interest' in a game doesn't mean I can't participate or comment on threads about it. Also doesn't mean that I can't change my mind if I see/read something that does change my mind.
The Poll has options for those who aren't 'excited' and if ONLY those that are excited, click on the article, vote and/or comment, that is going to produce a very 1 sided perspective.
If you are excited for it, great! I am certainly not saying this game shouldn't be made or 'exist' just because it isn't appealing to me, and certainly won't try and tell people what they should/shouldn't do for having a different perspective as you seem to think you can...
i have no interest in child cartoon games like this either.
@BAMozzy I’m just taking the piss out. If you want to use your limited time engaging with coverage of a game you have nothing more to say about than I’m not interested in it I’m interested in these unrelated things rather than just engaging with those completely unrelated games then it’s your right to do so. Have fun being here uninterested.
The banner saga trilogy is great. I am hoping to love this one as well.
@BAMozzy it's from the creators of Banner Saga, but it's nothing like those games. I'm not a fan of banner saga at ALL, but a co op beat em up with RPG elements. Hell yeah! This kinda reminds me of Sacred Citadel on steroids.
@JustinSane The banner saga bit was another reason it doesn't appeal but the actual Game-play style has no appeal to me personally.
I have no desire to play but because its on Game Pass, I'd only play to make up the numbers if my friends all wanted to play. If it wasn't on Game Pass, I wouldn't buy it to play with friends, I'd play something else.
Looks interesting. I will try it. Hopefully they talk about 33 immortals too. The closed beta was pretty good.
