Tower Tea - March 2, 2026

Hey pals and welcome to this week’s Tower Tea! As many of you may have seen earlier this morning, v27.5 started rolling out on Android, and it should be out to everyone by tomorrow. This one includes some Cloud Save updates and a new Toggle! There are a few other fixes and improvements in there too, so if you haven’t checked them out you should.

And yes, v28 is coming, so keep an eye out for teasers this month!

Oh, and we’re working on adding more ways to unlock older relics from previous events.

There is also an update on my Tower and my plans for the “end game” run, for those who’ve been asking, but if that’s not your thing you can totally skip down to the QOTW at the end.

Developer Diaries

Here’s an update from the devs on some future work:

Hi Defenders! We wanted to share that we are looking into ways to improve how info is shared in the game. From in-game descriptions of abilities, to giving our in-game encyclopedia a makeover, we’ll be tackling this in the future. We want to make the information more straightforward and as accessible as possible. If you have any suggestions or requests, feel free to let us know!

Sam’s Tower Update

It’s been a little bit since I’ve updated you on my Tower adventures, so here’s what I’ve been up to!

I missed a few tournaments due to being sick most of February, but I am back and for about 5 minutes I almost made it to the next tier. Alas, I fell quickly. But I am excited to try again next Tournament because I just upgraded a bunch of things so that might help!

I am starting from Tier 1 and trying to get all the way to 4500 in each tier. The furthest I have reached is 2636 in T1, and I am at 1193 as of 8:47 am pacific this morning, so wish me luck!

As for my “end game run”, that’s coming near the end of this month/early April. I wanted to get through 6 months of “beginner” run, and my 6 months is on the 8th of March, so I'll finish out these challenges I have set for myself, and then I am planning on respec-ing my first tower, and starting a second Tower on my “social media” phone. (Yes, I have two phones, one is my day-to-day phone, and the other is my old busted i-phone that just works on wi-fi for my work social media accounts.)

So with that in mind, what do you recommend I do first on my new Tower?
