Temtem: Swarm Spoilers, day 3! The good, the bad and the shiny: Lumas!

Hello Tamers, and welcome to another entry in our Spoiler week! We're starting off strong this week with a first look at Luma Temtem, and a little bit of insight on how to get them. Let's go!

The shinier, the better

Luma Tems are a staple in our original multiplayer creature-collector game, Temtem. These Tems are way rarer than their normal counterparts, and sport different, fun colors, making them a sought-after treat for many Tamers. We knew from the start that we wanted to include these exceptional variations into Temtem: Swarm, and patch 1.0 will be the perfect stage for these stars to shine!

By now you might be wondering how to get your hands on a Luma in Temtem: Swarm, so let's learn about the Prestige System.

The Prestige System

Lumas in the OG Temtem game are luck-based, with a 1/2000 chance of showing up, but it will not be the case in Temtem: Swarm. Games in the survivors genre, like Swarm, have an undeniable RNG factor in the form of Technique pools, projectiles firing off and more, so we wanted the road towards Luma variations to be a certain, straightforward one free of RNG.

That's where Prestige comes in: win a match with a fully upgraded Skill Tree, and then reset said SK to unlock Prestige Level 1. Perform this loop more times to unlock further Prestige levels, each of which will grant you bonuses, like new passives for both that Temtem and all playable Tems, and other juicy rewards. The Luma version of a Temtem is unlocked after winning a match at Prestige level 1, and from that moment on you'll be able to choose between the Luma version and the regular version of the Tem at the character selection menu.

This means playing consistently with a Temtem is a guaranteed way to eventually obtain its Luma, as well as unlocking improvements for it. No luck involved in this process!

We hope you're ready to work hard for your favorite Temtem's Luma, Tamers! There's much more to the Prestige system than what we told you today, but we don't want to spoil everything for you just yet! You'll be able to discover it for yourself once patch 1.0 hits the platforms.

See you tomorrow for the exciting reveal of one of the new playable Temtem. Don't miss it!
