Tower Princess

Get ready for a not-so-average fairytale. From HypeTrain Digital, Tower Princess is launching on September 8 on PC, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and consoles! With a cheerful and comical storybook style, Tower Princess is a 3D rogue-lite platformer that takes players deep into the heart of a mysterious castle to rescue the princesses and princes in distress. Play as a proud knight on a quest to scour perilous dungeons and defeat a fearsome dragon while also trying to score a date.

In the Far Far Away Land of Tower Princess, knights have been called to save princes and princesses (some human, some…not so much) from a fire-breathing dragon. Many have tried, many have failed, but now it’s up to a new knight to brave the castle’s unfriendly halls. Avoid meeting an untimely death by outsmarting obstacles like spiky walls, windblown platforms, and unfortunately placed buzzsaws, just to name a few.

Take down eccentric enemies to get to the princess, whose magic can help defeat bosses like the unseemly Pigomancer. One death too many, and the journey is over for good! Procedurally generated dungeons add an extra layer of replayability so players can discover new items every time.

With a fresh blend of old-school platforming and colorful 3D animation, Tower Princess gives an all-new meaning to “knight in shining armor.” As if one princess wasn’t enough, players must save as many princesses and princes as they can before dying a grisly death. Then, get right back up and start again! In each run, players can collect upgrades to improve armor, swords, muskets, and maps. Upgrade based on skill level or buy using tokens, increasing healing items, damage output, and more. Find a special something in the dungeon? Gift it to the princess to upgrade her powers! New abilities can also be unlocked, like dash attack and explosive shot.

Exploring the castle thoroughly is a must, as there are many dungeons filled with valuable loot and hidden items (just watch out for that creepy slime). There may also be some illusory walls if you look close enough…and if help is needed, a certain princess might be able to guide the way. Win the favor of the heirs, and rewards will follow!

Ready to face the dragon and become a hero? Tower Princess will be releasing on PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch on September 8! Wishlist the game on Steam now, and for more updates, check out the game on Twitter and Discord!
