We hope you're having a great time with the demo and discovering everything Raiders Rise has to offer.

But first, a quick reminder:

⚡ Nicola Is Still Available... For a Limited Time!

Our newest character, Nicola, will be given away throughout the Steam Next Fest, but ONLY during the event.

So if you haven't tried him yet, now is the perfect opportunity.

🧱 Build walls.

⚡ Fire powerful laser beams.

🎮 Discover new strategies.

🎖️ Character Progression

Today we'd like to talk about a feature that many of you may not know about yet.

👀 Did you know that every character can be upgraded?

That's right!

A Tier 1 Kurt is completely different from a Tier 3 Kurt.

And the same applies to every other character in the game.

As you progress, you'll unlock upgrades that enhance your abilities, change your playstyle, and open up new strategic possibilities.

💰 How Do I Upgrade My Characters?

The answer is simple:

🎮 Play the game!

By completing matches and missions, you'll earn coins that can be used to unlock character upgrades.

The more you play:

  • 🪙 The more coins you'll earn.

  • 🎯 The more rewards you'll unlock.

  • ⚔️ The stronger your favorite Raiders will become.

🔒 But It Won't Be That Easy...

At some point, you'll notice that your progression slows down.

Why?

Because some Tiers are locked and require more than just coins to unlock.

🏅 Earn Badges to Reach Higher Tiers

To access these advanced tiers, you'll need to collect Badges, which can be obtained through:

  • 📈 Reaching specific levels in the Battle Pass.

  • 🐱 Opening Catchas.

And yes...

😸 They're cat-shaped gachas.

We simply couldn't resist.

🔥 Time to Reach Those Higher Tiers!

Now that you know more about the progression system, there's only one thing left to do:

⚔️ Play, upgrade, and unlock your full potential.

Keep completing matches, earning rewards, and strengthening your characters to discover everything they're capable of.

So get out there, Raiders... and start climbing those Tiers!
