Tower of Babel – Our 2026 Expansion Plans

Hey, Heroes of Tower of Babel! Since we launched Early Access in May 2025, we've shipped everything from our original roadmap, every major system, every chunk of planned content. And thanks to your feedback (and your patience), we've gone beyond that with a ton of extra improvements and upgrades. Seriously: thank you. Right now, the team's been doing a full roadmap checkup, what's done, what's improved, and what we still want to push further. So today, we're ready to share our 2026 expansion plans for Tower of Babel.

  • New Floors

  • Equipment Presets

  • Chaos Dungeon

  • Hardcore Mode

  • New Legendary Affixes & Rune Options

  • New Achievements

  • New NPCs: Alchemist and Beggar

  • Hearth of Souls system

Everything we originally promised for Early Access has been added. ✅ Major Improvements (based on your feedback)

  • Added skill/effect transparency options

  • Shared floor progression + gold across heroes

  • Reworked Altar of Blessings (and cut gold costs by more than half)

  • Expanded stash size + sped up lobby movement

Most of the biggest pain points from Early Access have been addressed. 🔄 Plan Updates / Changes

  • We're adding an extra Early Access content drop: Update 1.12.0

  • Full launch window changed: 2025 Q4 → Early Summer 2026

  • "New Legendary Affixes & Rune Options" originally planned for 1.0 has been moved to post-1.0 updates

The release timing shift is to make sure 1.0 lands with more content, better systems, and a more polished experience overall. Click the thumbnail below to view our 2026 roadmap. Steam post image

2. Early Access Update 1.12.0

Originally, Tower of Babel's peak was designed to cap at 18 floors. But the game's grown a lot, and with 1.0 still ahead, we're shipping one more big Early Access update: 1.12.0. This one's about climbing higher, gearing up harder, and taking on tougher endgame challenges, both in the Tower and the Chaos Dungeon. Steam post image 1.12.0 Highlights

  • New Floors 16, 17, 18

  • New Boss: Doom of Thunder

  • Chaos Dungeon expanded to 60 floors (30 → 60)

  • Optimization + performance improvements

📅 Release Date: March 5 Bring better gear. Aim higher.

3. Full Release (Version 1.0)

Tower of Babel: Survivors of Chaos will leave Early Access and launch as a full release in Early Summer 2026, after about a year in Early Access. Steam post image What's in 1.0

  • New Hero: Skullcrusher

  • New Floors 19, 20, 21

  • Final Boss: The Unmaker of Existence

  • Raid Boss: Greed's Reckoning

  • Event Dungeon: The Warped Floor

  • Brand-new Enchantment system

  • Lots of new Achievements

  • More Altar of Blessings updates + QoL improvements

  • More balance updates + system improvements

📅 We'll announce the exact launch date one month before release.

4. After 1.0: What's Next

1.0 isn't the finish line, it's the foundation. We're planning to keep expanding Tower of Babel after launch with:

  • New Hero classes

  • New challenge content + systems

  • Reincarnation system

  • Additional DLC

  • And some stuff we're not ready to reveal yet 👀

Tower of Babel is a long-term universe project for us. We'll share details step by step after 1.0 launches.

5. Platform Expansion (Consoles)

Steam post image Time to go beyond PC. Tower of Babel: Survivors of Chaos is coming to more platforms:

  • Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox versions are planned

  • We're also reviewing additional platforms/markets

  • If you're a console player, keep an eye on this one.

📅 Target: 2026 Q3 (timing may change depending on console holder policies)

  • A chain-combo system built around greed vs. restraint

  • Playtest + Early Access planned for the second half of 2026

  • Wishlist is live right now
