Fortune’s Rivals is an update that adds completely new playable character classes to the game - each with their own strengths and weakness, and kitted out with multiple custom Weapons and Relics - giving players fresh new ways to play and plunder their way through the City of Brass.
Classes unlock via the games Ranking system, and will automatically be awarded for players that have already achieved the required Rank.

Packing a handful of mystical throwing daggers that can be spread across multiple targets, the Brigand is a nimble adventurer well suited to the dangers of the City.

The Brigand's reputation is well earned: no palace, treasure room or lock-box is safe from his prying fingers. So when he learned of a mystical city in the desert, one that supposedly no-one has ever returned from, he knew what his next challenge would be.

We've added a new system for saving your progress mid-game, so you can take a break, come back and resume when you want.
- Saving only works on the progress screen after a level has been completed
- A saved game can be continued from the main menu the next time you return to the game
- Starting a new game will wipe any saved game in progress.
- Daily Challenge does not support save and continue.
