COMMUNITY LETTER JULY 2026

Bootssteam_community_announcements

18d ago

June was filled with colorful adventures as Trovians came together to restore what had been lost across the worlds. From helping GMQubesly recover disappearing emotions to earning vibrant rewards throughout Splendid Summer, the community once again proved that teamwork can brighten even the darkest challenges.

With Trove's anniversary just around the corner, even more celebrations and exciting new features are on the horizon. Sunfest is ready to return, and after months of anticipation, Tiny Quests are finally preparing to make their debut.

Splendid Summer

Splendid Summer brought a wave of colorful adventures to Trove as players joined forces with GMQubesly to uncover the mystery behind the world's fading emotions.

Throughout the event, Trovians collected Valor Coins, helped fellow adventurers, and faced dangerous manifestations of emotion while working to restore balance across the realms. Along the way, heroes unlocked exclusive rewards and embraced a season full of vibrant challenges that reminded everyone that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a big difference.

Sunfest

Sunfest returns to Trove just in time to celebrate the game's 11th anniversary, bringing heroic adventures, festive rewards, and the united strength of the Three Dragon Houses.

The Shadows are stirring once again, and the ancient Radiant Standards that protect Trove are beginning to fail. Guided by Patrolsly, players will aid House Panatea, House Carys, and House Tysorion by completing their daily adventures, gathering rare materials, and restoring the powerful seals that keep darkness at bay.

Along the way, Trovians will battle through Sunfest Cake Dungeons, refine Somber Souls into radiant energy, and hunt down mischievous Piñata Invaders to collect the resources each House needs. Once the materials have been gathered, heroes will travel to the Radiant Ruins and rebuild the Radiant Standards, pushing back the Shadows and bringing light back to the world.

The Three Dragon Houses are counting on Trove's bravest heroes once again.

Trove Cup 2026!

During this week-long event, soccer balls will spawn throughout the Hub, kick them to earn points and climb the daily leaderboard. Every hit counts, and participating will earn you event rewards, with top performers unlocking exclusive titles and other prizes.

Along the way, you'll also have a chance to craft the Ultimate Trove Cup ally. Whether you're aiming for the top of the leaderboard or just looking to grab some unique rewards, make sure to join the fun before the final whistle!

Tiny Quests

After months of anticipation, Tiny Quests is finally making its way to Trove.

This brand-new feature introduces a fresh way to adventure alongside your favorite allies, allowing them to embark on their own miniature expeditions while you continue exploring the world. As they complete missions, allies will earn experience, level up, and return with valuable rewards to help strengthen your collection.

Success depends on building the right team for every adventure. Assemble your Tiny Squad, equip them with special items, and match allies to quests based on unique mission tags to unlock powerful synergy bonuses. Whether it's a daring rescue or a dangerous expedition, careful planning will lead to even greater rewards.

Tiny but mighty, your companions are ready to set off on adventures of their own.

Developer Update

Since introducing XIGNCODE3 on PC (Glyph and Steam), we've seen a number of questions from the community and wanted to clarify a few things.

XIGNCODE3 only runs while Trove is running and automatically closes when you exit the game. It is not intended to affect your normal day-to-day PC usage outside of your game session. Additionally, VPNs are not blocked by XIGNCODE3, so players who use one should be able to continue doing so.

As a reminder, our goal with XIGNCODE3 is to help protect Trove from unfair advantages that negatively impact the game and its economy. Our position on mods has not changed: UI, visual, and quality-of-life mods remain allowed, while mods that automate gameplay or provide unfair advantages may be blocklisted.

We'll continue monitoring the rollout and appreciate your feedback as we work toward a fairer experience for everyone.

Community Questions will come back in the next letter

⭐Do you want YOUR question answered in the next Community Letter? Head to our Discord, you’ll find a dedicated thread in the #feedback channel. Ask your questions and upvote others! The most upvoted questions will be answered in the next Community Letter by the game team!

Happy adventuring, Trovians! The Trove Team

SunFest 26′ – Until July 21, 2026!

Bootssteam_community_announcements

21d ago

Trovians… the Shadows are stirring, and the Radiant Standards need your help…

From July 07, 2026 at 17 PM UTC until July 21, 2026 at 11 AM UTC, Trove celebrates it’s 11th birthday and Sunfest returns with heroic quests, festive rewards, and the united strength of the Three Dragon Houses.

House Panatea, House Carys, and House Tysorion are working together to rebuild the ancient Radiant Standards that keep the Shadows at bay. Meet Patrolsly in the Hub, aid each House, gather powerful materials, and restore light to the Radiant Ruins.

🏰 Aid the Three Dragon Houses

The Three Dragon Houses have joined forces, but each needs your help to complete their part of the restoration.

Visit House Panatea, House Carys, and House Tysorion in the Hub, complete their daily adventures, and gather the special House materials needed to repair the Radiant Standards.

🎂 Clear Sunfest Cake Dungeons

House Panatea needs Fluxyattium, but first, the Cake Dungeons must be cleared.

Venture into Adventure Worlds, defeat Sunfest Cake Dungeons, and help make the area safe so House Panatea can gather the materials needed for the ancient seals.

✨ Refine Somber Souls

House Carys specializes in turning dark energy into light.

Collect Somber Souls from across Trove and bring them to the House Carys Sunfest Bench to refine them into radiant power. Every soul gathered brings the Radiant Standards closer to being restored.

🎉 Defeat Piñata Invaders

House Tysorion needs Flux Mk. II, carried by mischievous Piñata Invaders.

These invaders can appear after Dungeon clears and during invasions. Track them down, defeat them, and claim the final materials needed to complete the restoration.

⭐ Restore the Radiant Standards

Once the Three Houses have gathered their materials, travel to the Radiant Ruins and repair the Radiant Standards.

Each Standard restored pushes the Shadows back and brings Trove one step closer to a brighter future.

The Three Dragon Houses are united, the Shadows are waiting, and Patrolsly is counting on Trove’s heroes once again.

🌞 In addition to this year’s Sunfest rewards, a selection of returning Sunfest collectibles will also be available.

Get ready, Trovians. Sunfest is here!

COMMUNITY LETTER JUNE 2026

Bootssteam_community_announcements

47d ago

May brought plenty of adventure, teamwork, and creativity to Trove. From tracking down a familiar missing explorer to protecting Trove's buzzing allies, Trovians stayed busy across the worlds while builders showcased their imagination in our latest community contest.

As summer arrives, even more colorful adventures are already underway. With Splendid Summer now live, new rewards, challenges, and mysteries await heroes across Trove.

Marquitillo is missing

Marquitillo's latest disappearance sent Trovians on another community-favorite hunt this month.

Players ventured into dungeons, collected Rubber Duckats, and unlocked a variety of rewards, including new titles, a capybara ally, and a groovy bus mount. As always, the search brought plenty of adventure and a healthy dose of duck-themed chaos.

Spring Fling

Spring Fling returned to Trove this month, bringing bees, waspiders, and seasonal excitement back to the worlds.

Alongside Sir Dapper Duckington, players defended bee populations, explored event activities, and earned exclusive rewards while taking on the growing waspider threat across several biomes.

Space cornerstone contest

This month, Trovians were challenged to take their creativity beyond the stars in the Space Innovation Cornerstone Contest.

Builders put their imagination on display with futuristic and space-inspired cornerstones, showcasing the incredible creativity and talent of the Trove community.

Splendid Summer

Splendid Summer has arrived, bringing colorful rewards and a unique new challenge to Trove.

As emotions begin disappearing across the worlds, players will work alongside GMQubesly to restore balance, collect Valor Coins, and unlock exclusive event rewards. From helping fellow Trovians to confronting dangerous manifestations of emotion, plenty of adventures await throughout the event.

The colors are fading, and Trove's heroes are needed once again.

1. Will we ever get more transparency from the development team, about what's happening behind the scenes, and why Trove is in the current state that it is?

We understand that players would like more transparency about what's happening behind the scenes. While there are limitations on what we can share, as some discussions, plans, and development processes aren't ready for public disclosure, we recognize the value of keeping the community informed.

We are reviewing how we communicate with players and how we can provide better visibility into development where possible.

Our goal is to strike the right balance between transparency and ensuring that any information we share is accurate, meaningful, and ready to be communicated. We appreciate the community's continued passion, feedback, and support, and we'll continue looking at ways to improve communication .

2. Will tenebrous ever get removed?

First let's answer: What is Tenebrous?

Tenebrous is a Delve modifier that serves an important role by adding Darkness to enemies, which helps regulate progression through deeper Delves.

Removing Tenebrous would allow players to push significantly deeper into Delves than they currently can, and there are a number of design and technical considerations tied to that. Before any change like this could be considered, we would need to ensure that Delve progression, difficulty scaling and rewards remain in a healthy state.

For now, Tenebrous has to stay...

3. Will we have more geode mastery levels in the future the keep the game alive for mastery since nothing new has been added for geode for years

We understand that players who have completed the existing Geode progression would like to see additional mastery opportunities. While there are no plans to expand Geode Mastery at this time, it is something we may consider in the future.

Trovians… the colors of Trove aren't looking quite right…

From June 02, 2026 at 11 AM UTC until June 16, 2026 at 11 AM UTC, Splendid Summer arrives with colorful rewards, mysterious encounters, and a growing number of Trovians who seem to have lost something important— their emotions.

GMQubesly has set up shop in the Hub, and he needs your help. Gather Valor Coins, venture into Adventure Worlds, and restore color, feeling, and spirit to Trove's most troubled residents.

🌴 Earn Valor Coins

Valor Coins are the key to this year's summer celebration. Complete quests, conquer challenges, and collect this special currency to unlock exclusive event rewards from GMQubesly's shop.

🎭 Restore Lost Emotions

Across Trove, Unfeeling Trovians wander without joy, sadness, or excitement. Travel to distant lands and help them reconnect with their emotions.

Dance alongside lonely Trovians in Candoria to bring back their happiness, and share a Tragic Diary with those in the Cursed Vale to help them rediscover sadness. As their feelings return, so does their vibrant color.

🔥 Confront Angry Incarnations

Not every emotion returns peacefully.

In Dragonfire Peaks, manifestations of pure anger roam the landscape. These Angry Incarnations grow larger and more dangerous when they spot adventurers. Defeat them and help bring balance back to Trove.

⭐ Adventure Awaits

Take on 3-star dungeons, complete GMQubesly's challenges, and prove that even the strongest heroes can make a difference through courage, kindness, and a little bit of summer spirit.

Spend your Valor Coins on all-new rewards available exclusively during Splendid Summer.

The colors are fading, emotions are running wild, and GMQubesly is counting on Trove's heroes once again.

🌺 In addition to this year's Splendid Summer rewards, a selection of returning event packs will also be available.

April brought plenty of chaos, discoveries, and new adventures to Trove. From prehistoric bunnies causing timeline trouble to powerful new equipment reshaping class builds, Trovians spent the month exploring fresh challenges across the worlds.

As the dust settles from Bunfest and Mystic Rings continue to shake up gameplay, even more seasonal chaos is already on the horizon. Alongside upcoming events, we also wanted to share an important update about the future of Trove and some of the work happening behind the scenes to support the game moving forward.

🐰Bunfest

Bunfest returned to Trove this month, bringing prehistoric chaos and timeline trouble across the worlds.

Alongside Lepora and Unga Bun-ga, Trovians ventured into the Jurassic Jungle, where strange eggs, ancient bunnies, and dangerous encounters awaited. Players smashed eggs across dungeons, tracked down Golden Eggs, completed daily activities, and climbed the leaderboards to unlock rewards throughout the event.

💍Ring It On!

Mystic Rings officially arrived in Trove this month, introducing a powerful new way for players to customize and strengthen their classes.

Using Mystic Loops and rare crafting materials, Ringcrafters were able to forge class-specific Mystic Rings featuring Hidden Effects capable of unlocking new gameplay possibilities and build strategies.

Alongside the new system, several classes also received balance updates and new abilities, encouraging Trovians to experiment with fresh combinations and rethink their favorite builds.

🌼🐝Spring Fling

Spring Fling is returning to Trove, and the worlds are about to get a whole lot buzzier.

Sir Dapper Duckington has arrived in the Hub with an important mission as swarms of Waspiders begin causing chaos across the biomes. Trovians will team up with friendly bees, take on dangerous Waspider Alphas, and dive into the seasonal madness to restore balance before things spiral completely out of control.

Along the way, players can collect Migration Capsules, uncover seasonal rewards, and join the fight as the swarm spreads across Trove once again.

Developer Update

We want to share an update on some important behind-the-scenes changes, as well as provide more context around the Tiny Quest delay.

⚙️Transition to a 64-bit Client

We are updating Trove from a 32-bit client to a 64-bit client. This is a foundational upgrade that helps the game run more reliably and prepares it for the future.

As Trove has grown over time, the previous client became more limiting. Moving to 64-bit gives us a more stable and modern base, making it easier for us to continue improving the game and supporting future updates.

Tiny Quest Delay

As previously communicated, Tiny Quest was delayed. One of the contributing factors was this transition to the 64-bit client.

This upgrade required additional technical adjustments to ensure that upcoming content (like Tiny Quest) works correctly within the updated environment. Taking this extra time helps us avoid potential issues and ensures a smoother experience when the update goes live.

Looking Ahead

This change is an important step for Trove’s long-term stability and future development. We appreciate your patience and your continued support.

Community questions are back next month! Do you want YOUR question answered in the next Community Letter? Head to our Discord, you’ll find a dedicated thread in the #feedback channel. Ask your questions and upvote others! The most upvoted questions will be answered in the next Community Letter by the game team!

Thank you for your continued support.

April is shaping up to be an exciting month in Trove! Following a busy March filled with celebrations and new adventures, Trovians are now diving into fresh experiences, early feature previews, and the return of familiar festivities. From testing new systems to chasing luck and preparing for upcoming surprises, there’s plenty to explore across Trove.

Tiny Quest PTS Tiny Quests made their first appearance on the Public Test Server, giving players an early look at this upcoming feature.

During the preview, players were able to send their Allies on small adventures, allowing them to gain experience and return with rewards over time.

Thank you, Trovians, for taking part in this first test. Your Allies are set to take on a new role in Trove, and your feedback is helping us shape and improve the system for everyone.

St. Qubeslick The St. Qubeslick event returned, bringing luck back to Trove’s worlds. During the event, players tracked down Luckbeasts and Fluxbeasts in dungeons, collected Fragments of Luck and Sir O’Lucky’s Coins, and uncovered hidden Pots o’ Gold to transform their findings into rewards. This year’s edition introduced new collectibles alongside returning packs, giving Trovians even more ways to chase a bit of extra fortune during their adventures.

Bunfest – Until April 14 Something strange is happening in Trove…

Prehistoric bunnies are appearing across the worlds, bringing chaos and time-twisting surprises. Alongside Lepora and Unga Bun-ga, players will venture into the Jurassic Jungle, where ancient creatures, mysterious eggs, and unstable timelines await.

Community Events A new building competition begins on April 13th, where creativity and spaceflight collide. Get ready to design, build, and reach for the stars!

Developer Update

This month, instead of a Q&A, we wanted to share a direct update focused on the topics Trovians have been asking about most.

Reopening the Marketplace on PC remains one of our top priorities. We’re close to completing a new system designed to improve the in-game economy. While it’s not quite ready yet, we’re working hard to bring it to you as soon as possible.

At the same time, we are upgrading Trove’s overall performance. To support these improvements, several updates have been implemented on the live servers. As a result, maintenance periods were more frequent than usual, and there was a week where login issues were higher than expected. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, these changes are necessary to support the game’s long-term performance.

While Tiny Quests will take more time before reaching the live server, a new update is on the way that will introduce unexpected changes to classes performance.

We’re keeping the details under wraps for now, but we’re excited to share more during an upcoming stream in the coming weeks.

Thank you for your continued support. Your Trove Team

March is bringing plenty of activity to Trove! Over the past month, Trovians celebrated love, welcomed the Lunar New Year with the fiery Cindrakken, and helped protect the endangered Heckbug population. As we move forward, this month includes the return of St. Qubeslik and the upcoming release of Tiny Quest.

🐞💞Heckbugs in Love & Community Event

Trovians stepped up to help the endangered Heckbug population, earning limited-time rewards along the way. The celebration continued with the “Love is in the Air” Community Event — thank you to everyone who shared screenshots of their best pairs, and congratulations to the winners!

We loved seeing the creativity and positivity you brought to this romantic season.

🐴Lunar New Year: Fire Horse Dragon Event

Trovians welcomed the Chinese New Year with a blazing new dragon to pursue. By uncovering Emberscale Dragon Egg Fragments, players were able to forge Cindrakken, the Emberscale Dragon.

Two familiar faces also returned for the celebration: Duraveln, the Hollow Spirit, and She’xia the Mythical.

🍀St. Qubeslik Event

Feeling lucky? Get ready for some festive fun with our St. Qubeslik Event!

Track down Pots o’ Gold, face Luck-and-Flux themed dinosaurs, and challenge Sir O’Lucky himself to earn shimmering rewards. We’re excited to see the community come together once again for this lucky celebration.

🐸🚌Tiny Quests

This month also marks the beginning of the Tiny Quests PTS. Players can now jump in, test the feature, and share feedback as we continue refining the experience.

Your feedback, bug reports, and suggestions during this testing phase will help us polish Tiny Quests before its full release.

Tiny Quests is expected to arrive on LIVE servers later this month. We’re excited to see what the community discovers during testing and can’t wait for everyone to experience it soon.

Thank you to everyone who shared their questions on our Discord! We’ve picked some of the most frequently asked topics and answered them below.

1.- Do you have any plans to rework or change shadow tower in any sort of way because right now it’s useless. Shadow Tower has been discussed internally, and we understand why players bring it up. However, due to the way the feature was originally implemented, it comes with significant technical and performance limitations. Because of this, we are currently exploring the possibility of creating a feature in the future that captures the aspects of Shadow Tower that players enjoyed, while avoiding the technical issues the current system has. With that in mind, we’d love to hear from you: what parts of Shadow Tower did you enjoy the most? Feel free to share your thoughts in the forum thread and let us know what made the experience memorable for you.

2.- Can we please be updated on if the following packs are Retired. Celesta's Call (trove_charity_2020_3_pack) Collector's Pack (trove_collector_pack) Creator's Pack (trove_creator_pack) \? Celesta’s Call was available again during the past month. The team is reviewing the possibility of bringing back some of the items from the Collector’s Pack in the future. We are continuing to look at additional ways to make certain items from older packs available again over time, even if the original packs themselves do not return in their original form.

3.- Is it possible to provide us with explanations when downtimes are announced? Doing this would save the speculation amongst players and ultimate dissapointment when players realise it is not mp Not every server restart or maintenance includes a major update. In many cases, restarts are simply required for routine maintenance or smaller backend changes. Regarding the Marketplace specifically: when it is ready to reopen, we will communicate that clearly to the community. We understand that downtime announcements can sometimes lead to speculation, and we appreciate everyone's patience while the team continues working on the necessary fixes.

We look forward to seeing you in-game during the upcoming events. Be sure to share your adventures with us, and until next time.

Community Letter: February 2026

Bootssteam_community_announcements

Hello Trovians!

The year is off to a strong start, and Trove have been buzzing with activity. From welcoming the new year alongside fluttering butterflies to cheering on creative builds and looking ahead to some trovian-favorite events, there’s plenty to catch up on. Let’s look at what happened last month, and what exciting adventures are coming up next.

🦋✨RenewUs ’26

RenewUs ’26 welcomed in the new year with the return of the RenewUs Butterfly, a long-lost symbol of renewal fluttering back into Trove. Throughout the event, Trovians worked together to help restore its population, celebrate fresh beginnings, and embark on a seasonal journey that set the tone for 2026.

🎥Stream Competition

We kicked off the year with our first stream of 2026, featuring Trove’s very first Live Building Contest! Our amazing Content Creators showed off their creativity live on stream, and we’re happy to congratulate Air Rider, our first-ever MasterBuilder winner. A huge thank-you to everyone who joined us, participated, and shared the fun.

February is packed with events, including two Trove favorites that many Trovians have been eagerly waiting for.

🐞💞Heckbugs In Love ‘26

Starting early February

Love is in the air… but in Trove, it can get a little dangerous. During Heckbugs in Love, H.E.C.K. (Helpers of Exotic Creatures... for Karma!) is back and you’ll choose your path: help the Heckbugs find love or hunt down those that are just too heckin’ much. Whether you’re matchmaking or heck’mashing, expect chaos, charm, and plenty of rewards along the way.

🐴Lunar New Year 2026

Starting mid-February

Celebrate the Year of the Horse with a brand-new Lunar New Year event! Gallop into the festivities and earn horse-themed rewards as you take part in this colorful seasonal celebration. It’s the perfect way to keep the new year’s momentum going, Trovian!

Stream & PTS Announcement

And you thought we were done?

On February 6, we’ll be hosting our second stream of the year, this time featuring members of the dev team and a first look at an upcoming new feature. We’ll also be sharing details about when you can jump in through the PTS, giving you an early chance to try it out and help us make it even better.

Thank you to everyone who shared their questions on our Discord! We’ve picked some of the most frequently asked topics and answered them below.

1. When will the Marketplace reopen?

Reopening the Marketplace remains one of our top priorities. Since last month, we’ve been making steady progress on solutions that will allow us to safely bring it back while protecting the game economy and ensuring fair conditions for everyone.

Right now, these systems are actively being tested. The implementation of our solution takes time, and while everything is moving in the right direction, it’s important for us to do this properly.

Thank you for your trust and patience while we work through this.

2. Do you have a plan to efficiently handle reported cheaters/dupers to maintain fair-play?

Yes. Maintaining fair play is a priority for us.

We have an established reporting system both in-game and outside the game to ensure cheaters and dupers are reviewed efficiently. Players can submit detailed reports along with supporting evidence through our official reporting portal. Each report is reviewed by our team to help maintain a fair and healthy environment for everyone.

3. Gif perms when? specifically cat gifs.

While we love them as much as you do, GIFs are currently disabled in chat because they’re difficult to moderate and can quickly get out of hand.

That said, you’re not completely without feline flair, Cranny stickers are already available in chat, ready to deliver the cat energy that chat needs (puurrrrr). We will explore ideas to add more!

Reports can be submitted here: Trove Player Reports

Thanks for continuing to make Trove such a fun, creative, and welcoming community. We can’t wait to see what you build, battle, and discover next. Stay tuned for more updates, and we’ll see you in the hub!

Community Letter: January, 2026

Bootssteam_community_announcements

Hello Fellow Trovians!

✨A brand-new year is here, and we hope you’re stepping into 2026 with plenty of good vibes (and even better loot). Before we charge into everything January has to offer, let’s take one last look back at the snowy, creative, and joyful month we had in December!

❄️ Tales from the Snowcube – Community Event

December kicked off with something extra special: our first seasonal community event, Tales from the Snowcube! We opened up a brand-new community club world filled with festive décor, daily quests, and cozy winter charm; and you all jumped in with enthusiasm.

From gift-wrapping chaos to moose mayhem and sneaky gnome-hunting, it was a holiday adventure we loved sharing with you. Thanks to everyone who explored the Snowcube Sanctuary and helped make the event feel alive!

🧱 Buildmas Contest – Your Creativity Shined

We also launched the Buildmas Contest, inviting Trovians to go full holiday mode with winter wonderland creations. Cozy cottages, frosty forts, glowing ornament builds.

A huge shoutout to everyone who submitted their entries and brought the festive spirit into Trove through pure creativity. The community never fails to impress!

⛄ Snowfest ’25: Snowvasion

Then came the big one: Snowfest ’25: Snowvasion, transforming Trove into a full-on snowy battleground. This year’s twist brought new Snowvader enemy types invading select biomes, making every run feel like a seasonal showdown.

Whether you were hunting rewards, braving the chill, or just enjoying the chaos, Snowfest delivered that perfect end-of-year energy, and we loved seeing everyone jump in.

📣 Coming Up in January

We’re kicking off 2026 together in a big way with our first stream of 2026 happening this month! 🎥✨

This one will be especially exciting for all the creatives out there, because we’ll be focusing on building, sharing inspiration, talking, and celebrating what makes Trove’s builders so amazing. 🧱❄️

We’ll have more details to share soon, so keep an eye on our channels and get ready!

🏪Market Place Situation

We want to update you on the current Marketplace situation. Due to an issue affecting Marketplace functionality and trading integrity, we have temporarily shut it down to prevent further impact.

We’ve identified that some players have been attempting to take advantage of the Marketplace in ways that could create unfair conditions for others. To protect the economy and ensure a stable experience for everyone, we’re addressing the problem before bringing the Marketplace back online.

✅ Our team is actively investigating and working on a fix. ✅ The Marketplace will return; we’re committed to restoring it.

We want to bring it back as quickly as possible, but we also want to ensure the fix is done properly so the Marketplace remains safe and reliable once it returns.

Thank you for your patience and support, we’ll continue to share updates as we make progress.

1.- 𝐑𝐨𝐢 𝐏𝐢𝐱' - Short version : Do you want to make all classes perfectly balanced in order to reduce the drastic power gaps, or do you prefer to keep some classes significantly stronger than others so that players are effectively pushed to converge on the same class depending on the content they’re playing ? I mean mainly in terms of speed, because that’s what affects the balance the most. Thanks, I wish all classes to be able to speedfarm with the same efficiency.

Perfectly equal balance across all classes isn’t realistically achievable (and no game truly reaches that). There will always be a “best” option in specific scenarios. However, our goal is not to keep certain classes intentionally stronger and push everyone into the same pick depending on content.

Instead, we aim for all classes to be viable across all content, even if they achieve it in different ways. Classes should remain distinct and specialized, so some may be naturally better at certain activities and weaker at others.

2.- - Will you improve the game moderation systems to better address cheating and botting, and will you add in-game tools for reporting suspected cheaters? At the moment we can only report chat messages in-game or use a web form that requires players to provide clear evidence, which is often arduous to gather. We also receive no feedback on report outcomes due to the "privacy guidelines", making it unclear whether any action is taken at all. Given how easily cheaters can avoid detection or create new accounts, can players expect more effective tools and moderation in the future?

We understand where the critique is coming from. While we can’t go into details about future detection methods, additional measures are planned to strengthen fair play.

Player reports are very valuable: even if you don’t see immediate results, they contribute to investigations and can lead to action. However, due to privacy guidelines, we can’t confirm outcomes for individual reports. We already have moderation and enforcement processes in place, and we’re continuously looking for ways to improve the reporting and ban system.

3.- Atronicks - When can we expect to see some more content aimed at difficulty. Currently adventure worlds cap out at Long Shade (15) and with the combination of mystic gems and mystic gear, players are scaled past it already. The game doesn't feel anywhere near as enjoyable when everything dies in 1 hit. I would be looking forward to for example a Difficulty 16 and potentially Difficulty 17 with minimal improvement to player gear so that the hardest difficulties feel like a struggle to clear and force people to optimise their class builds to play the endgame content effectively.

We agree that many players are starting to outscale the current Adventure World cap, this is the natural course of the game flow and expected. Higher difficulty progression is planned down the road, and we’re actively looking at ways to keep endgame content challenging as player power grows.

Community Letter: December

Hello Trovians!

As 2025 winds down, we’re wrapping up the year with festive events, exciting updates, and tons of community spirit. Let’s take a look at what’s been happening and what’s just around the corner!

🦃 Friendsgiving

Chefsly’s Kitchen brought a ton of new recipes and introduced players to the instantly lovable Rolling Roger (just… try not to scare him). This month in Trove was all about coming together and discovering what’s new. Friendsgiving brought cozy chaos back to the game as Chefsly rallied Trovians to gather ingredients, whip up seasonal dishes, and share in the holiday spirit.

🐉 Radiant Pathfinder

The Radiant Pathfinder update officially went live, giving players our first Draconic Pathfinder a clearer and more interactive way to obtain dragons and carve out new paths of progression. Granny also stepped into the spotlight with some delightful surprises of her own, adding a touch of charm.

🎁 Community Event: Goal Reached!

Your donations made a difference and now all Trovians across all platforms will receive Bonus Bonanza Days starting this friday, 05 December ! Thank you for coming together and helping us hit this milestone.

❄️ Snowfest ’25 – Snowvasion

Get ready… they’re back. The snowmen are invading Trove once again and this time, they’re bringing reinforcements. Expect chilly challenges, new twists on classic events, and rewards worth braving the frost for. Rumor has it there are rare drops, snowy surprises in unexpected places, and a few familiar faces in need of rescue. Stay frosty, Trovians—Snowfest starts soon!

🎁 Tales from the Snowcube - Community Event

Step into the Club created just for this special event! Help wrap gifts, play with the Moose, dodge those wild cookies and most importantly, find those sneaky gnomes.

🎄 Christmas Building Event

The holiday spirit is strong in the Trove community! Our Christmas Building Event has officially begun, and submissions are now open. Show off your festive creativity for a chance to be featured and win wintery rewards!

Thank you to everyone who shared their questions on our Discord! We’ve picked some of the most frequently asked topics and answered them below.

1. - UberBrute - Will you exclude banned players from MR leaderboards?

This is a valid point. We’ll review how bans are handled in relation to the Mastery leaderboards and look into what we can do both going forward and retroactively.

2. - SW_StarWarrior27 - Since twitch drops are a little more consistent now, could we see a return to promotional drops that used to be included in twitch drops such as feathered float mag rider (or possibly other promo items such as carnival coaster or other brazilian items) If not twitch drops then could we see a return to them in some other way?

Great suggestion! We’ll take a look through our old promo rewards and see what can potentially make a comeback. Stay tuned!

3. FreeAndSay - Any chance we could see a hub update? Part of me feels like the hub should be way bigger with the pathfinder update coming out

We agree that the hub has become pretty packed over time, and a hub refresh is already on our list. It’s not a question of if, but when!

Whether you’re hunting snowmen, crafting dragons, or building winter wonderlands, we’re so glad to have you with us this season. Stay warm, stay curious, and stay creative; there’s plenty more fun on the horizon.
