Tower of Fantasy’s first major content update is scheduled for later this fall, but players are encouraged to check out Cobalt-B, a new playable character that will be added to the free-to-play Gacha MMORPG on October 6th. No need to wait until then. .
Cobalt-B gives off serious geek scientist vibes as she obsessively perfects her signature weapon, the Flaming Revolver, in the new trailer. Despite being called a revolver, the Cobalt-B weapon certainly looks like a shotgun. Gameplay footage shows him blasting enemies with energy grenades and both melee and personal shots that spread out in a large, front-facing cone. If her name didn’t give it away, her weapons are fire-based, combining King with his scythe, Huma with her shield, Zero with his Negation Cube, and more.
Characters and weapons are not exactly the same in Tower of Fantasy. The character in Tower of Fantasy is called his Simulacrum, which is basically an optional skin that the player can use if they wish. However, unlocking these characters also includes signature weapons that can be used independently of their corresponding owners.
A special limited-time event, Vera Orienteering, is now live and will run through October 12th. The event allows players to earn different rewards from different challenges and prepares players for the game’s upcoming major Vera expansion.
When the Vera update for Tower of Fantasy arrives, players will be able to explore a new desert region that is home to the cyberpunk city of Miraria. It’s where the game’s main story continues, as previewed in the recent story trailer.
Before Cobalt-B arrived, Tower of Fantasy added two new characters: the ice sword-wielding Frigg and the tenacious Claudia. Tower of Fantasy has been downloaded over 10 million times since its launch and is available on PC and mobile devices. If you’re new to anime MMOs, check out our Tower of Fantasy Beginner’s Guide.
