It’s autumn in the many worlds of Trove and our penchant for pumpkin-flavored treats have driven the forces of shadow out of their gourd!

Starting on October 24th, complete seven all-new, seasonal adventures to make the most of the holiday and earn epic loot in the process!

Witness the return of Pumpkin Dungeons to every biome. Clear out these pernicious pumpkin properties to earn Candy Corn which can be used to craft Mystery Boxes at the Shadowy Station in the spoopy new Shadow’s Eve hub.



With 2017 comes the brand new Haunted Mystery Box! This updated parcel portends a shadowy purpose and has a chance to drop two new mounts - the Colossal Chiropteran or the Uncanny Coffin!





As you defeat 1 star dungeons in the Cursed Vale biome you’ll occasionally spawn Todstrom instead of a loot chest. If you can take Todstrom down, he’ll drop Candy Corn and has a rare chance to drop the new Mobile Mummy bouncing ball mount!



Shadow’s Eve also ushers in the return of the incredibly popular Spooky Swag Bag. The SSB comes with a dormant Pumpkin Dragon Egg (to unlock the Drak-O-Lantern Dragon), 5 gorgeous mounts, and 4 simmering styles.





But wait, there’s more! There’s a new Block Bonus item available for FREE to players on PC, Xbox One, and those with PlayStation Plus – Musical Mat!



Login between October 24 and November 20 to claim it from the Deals tab of the Trove Store and it will automatically unlock in your Collections.

2017 also sees the rise of the Gourdzilla pack. This new pack includes the Gloomy Gloaming aura, Hardened Headgourd helm style, and one of the most massive ground mounts to ever grace the Trovian landscape – Gourdzilla!





The Gourdzilla Pack arrives on October 24th and is on sale for a 30% discount that first week, so don’t wait! On October 31st it returns to regular price for a week before disappearing from the store completely on November 7th!

Join us for Shadow’s Eve and take part in the “squariest” event of the year!

Update 2 - 10:41 AM PDT (5:41 PM GMT) Sorry for the delay in this update folks. We are still working to get some issues sorted out that popped up during maintenance, so we will need additional time.

Update 1 - 9:20 AM PDT (4:20 PM GMT) - Hey folks. We still have 40 minutes on our original downtime notice, but I wanted to let everyone know that we may need some additional time.

Calling all Trovians!

My name is Ricky “Din Othar” White, Senior Producer for Trove, and I'm here to offer you a look at the great content the team has been preparing for you over the last months. This is literally the first time these features have been revealed and I’m delighted to let you be the first to know.

I am ecstatic to announce that Trove - Adventures, a massive free content expansion for PC, Xbox One, and PS4, will release on November 14th! Including features requested by you, the Trove community, this update evolves the expansive Trove geography, and has some very cool surprises that we know you’re going to love. This is the highly anticipated “club update” that we’ve been hinting at, so let’s take a deeper look at what it brings to the table!

Clubs and Adventures
Clubs can now level up! Clubs gain experience through participation in the new Adventure system. As a club’s level increases, slots are unlocked to support new types of structures called fixtures. These fixtures provide stats, boosts, and bonuses, some that have never been seen before in Trove. I have two fixtures that I absolutely love in Trove - Adventures: one adds a new Gem Efficiency stat that reduces the amount of dust required to upgrade gems, and the other gives you the Double Hit stat that grants a chance to deal double damage in combat! At the release of the update, we’ll include 18 different fixtures, each of which can be upgraded twice, creating a ton of different combos. It’ll be up to your club’s leadership to decide which fixtures are placed down at a given time and in what order they are upgraded!



Players of all levels can use the new Club Adventure Portals located in the Club Headquarters at the Hub World. After jumping through the portal, they’ll arrive at a club’s Adventure Fixture, the home for our new Adventure NPCs. Admins of that club will spawn NPCs like Davey Drowner the Skeletal Pirrot or Snackle the Golden Chaos Chest Mimic. These NPCs give out exciting new adventures that anyone can take on, ranging from simple, like fishing up an old boot, to challenging, like defeating a Shadow Titan! There’s a rumor that Ganda the Sky Shepherd can spawn in a club world as an adventure NPC – will you be the first to discover if it’s true?

Additionally, Club permissions just got a whole lot better, as club leaders can now link individual permissions to ranks. The system is fully customizable, letting leaders decide who can do what! We’ve added a couple new ranks like President, the sole leader of a club, and Enforcer - you know - the person who really gets stuff done. Players will also designate one of their five clubs as their “main club”, enabling them to receive fixture benefits from it.

The Forbidden Spires
The thing I’m most excited about though is an amazing new biome called the Forbidden Spires! This great new Eastern-themed landscape visually replaces the Uber-6 prime world and appears randomly in other prime worlds. Explore its magnificent peaks and valleys while adventuring through all-new dungeons, obtaining great décor recipes, gathering the new mining resource known as cinnabar, and collecting feathers to craft your very own Ancient Phoenix mount!



Mastery and Leaderboards
The mastery system is now uncapped, allowing you to gain benefits for all the mastery points you’ve accumulated! We expect the top mastery players to reach the mid-500s with this update, with infinite room to grow in the future. Some adjustments have been made to the passive stats granted by each mastery rank to consider the uncapped nature of this system. Time to get your collecting on; will you be among the first to unlock the new Mastery Pegasus?

We’re also ready to release the highly anticipated changes to leaderboards. All Power Rank and Mastery leaderboards have been adjusted so players with the highest score per week are ranked the highest - meaning that all players will need to put in weekly effort if they want to be eligible for great rewards. Gold names will now be awarded to the top 2,000 Trove players per platform that have the highest Mastery totals week over week. I can’t wait to see which of our clubs place the highest on our new Club Power Rank leaderboard! A club’s Power Rank is calculated based on the combined Power Rank of its top 50 members, and the President of a top 20 club will receive a coveted blue name for a week!

More Great Stuff
But that’s not all…. Here’s a summary of the other features included in this colossal update.

• New Tutorial – Learn how to play Trove in style with this new walkthrough!
• Adventure Window – An awesome way to track adventures, events, challenges, dungeons, tome progress, and your daily cubit bar.
• LED Blocks – A new vibrant block type that can be set to various blinking cycles. Mostly, you use it to make some really cool signs. I mean, I make cool signs with them.
• Frameworks – Pre-constructed block arrangements that can be placed down all at once in your club world. BAM! A wild castle appeared.
• Plasma Fishing – It’s finally here! Fish in plasma to your heart’s content.
• Forged Stellar Souls – Stellar items can now be loot collected, resulting in Forged Stellar Souls instead of Forged Radiant Souls.
• Radiant and Stellar Rings – 250 skill Ringcrafters can use Radiant, and Stellar Souls to create these great new rings! If you like it, then you shoulda put…I’ll show myself out.

Over the next month as we work our way up to the release of Adventures, we’ll dish out even more info on this exciting new stuff. If you want to experience everything I just talked about, then head on over to our Public Test Server for a full content preview. Your feedback is warmly welcomed. You’ll even be able to copy your live character over to our test servers!

That’s all for now, and I hope you’re as hyped for Trove - Adventures as I am. Stay connected with us by watching our Friday Livestreams at https://www.twitch.tv/trionworlds, and follow us on social media at https://twitter.com/TroveGame and https://www.facebook.com/trovegame/.

See you in Trove!

On September 26, 2017 we introduced a new system to Trovians around the world – Blocky Bonus! The first Blocky Bonus item was the gorgeous Sabaddar, Summer’s Rapture. While that mount is only available through October 23, Blocky Bonuses are just getting started!



Put simply – Blocky Bonus items are very cool cubic creations that we’re giving to players on PC, Xbox One, or with PlayStation Plus. Just login to the game, open the Deals tab on the Trove Store to claim it and it will unlock directly to your Collections.

Future Blocky Bonuses will include many different types of items, but we’ve got a few more mounts coming in the weeks and months ahead, so let’s get that hype train rolling!

Starting with Shadow’s Eve (October 24th, 2017) you’ll be able to pick up a magical mystery Musical Mat mount! This new carpet mount hovers above the ground and plays a gentle melody as you travel. If you need to cross great distances, this bad mama jama is also a glider!



After the Musical Mat we still have two more Blocky Bonus items coming up this year (one teased above). Tweet us your guesses for the upcoming items or suggestions for future Blocky Bonuses @TroveGame.

Get ready to bring 2017 to a close with a flurry of activity as we prepare for Shadow’s Eve, our massive Club Update, Turkeytopia, and Snowfest – with some Blocky Bonuses to top it off!

Greetings, Trovians!

We wanted to take a moment to throw the spotlight on a wonderful member of the Trove community who has done so much for all of us, Tali!



In our early days she helped forge a huge and passionate community of Trovians in Brazil with the Trove Brasil Facebook group.

She also worked as a driving force that encouraged us to implement a Portuguese translation of Trove on the PC that will come to all versions of Trove in the future.



We're genuinely grateful to Tali for all she has done for the game and community over the years. Oh, and today is her birthday!

Our thanks to the excellent Trovesaurus for running an art contest in celebration of the big day. Be sure to drop by and check out the Tali fan art and maybe drop her a tweet wishing her feliz aniversário!
