New Modes + New Heromaster Boss + Quality of Life

The Joust · published 24 Aug 2026, 00:35 UTC · build 24897339

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Dear all,

New Heromaster Boss: Arrow Boss

Hammerboss's distant cousin. He's big, he's bad, and he's got a warbow. Arrow Boss will generally appear every 40th wave.

Beta Mode: "Hero Realm"

"Hero Realm" is a temporary name for a new Roguelite mode in The Joust. This mode aims to deliver a metaprogression system for players, while still keeping that infinite, randomized fun.The actual design of the metaprogression is subject to change. This mode should be considered to be highly unstable. If you're interested in helping to shape its design, please consider joining our Community Discord server ( https://the-joust.com/discord ).

Multiplayer Beta Mode: World Mode

World Mode is an attempt at large-scale, Open World-style, The Joust. We've deployed a server that will attempt to hold 100 players concurrently. The World Mode server will be unstable for a while, but stopping in every down and again might be fun

Weapon Builder Hitbox Management Simplified

Weapon Builder's hitboxes should be simpler and easier to manage for users now.
