Tribes of Midgard started as a mix of roguelite, tower defense, action RPG, and survival. However, the survival aspect was not very pronounced at launch, but was a reason for many fans to purchase it. With the latest update of Season 3: Inferno Saga, this changes – Tribes of Midgard shows “Survival 2.0” in the latest trailer.
Tribes of Midgard had a strong launch. The mix of different genres convinced a lot of buyers, so in the release month of August 2021, there were almost 31,000 concurrent players on Steam. On average, almost 10,000 players were online.
The game also came to Xbox and PlayStation, so it probably had even more players.
But there was a sharp decline on Steam – barely 300 people were playing in March and April 2022, a drop of over 97%. Despite this, they planned for longer support with a season system and live service.
With the new Season 3, which is now online, the survival mode has been significantly revised and works more like the major survival hit Valheim.
Instead of engaging with tower defense elements, you now build your base wherever you want, loot as much as you can, and go hunting for the big bosses scattered throughout the world.
Tribes of Midgard remains true to its old principles, offering you, alongside the survival experience, other game modes that change the gameplay experience while the game remains fundamentally the same.
