A new tower defense mode! Combining traditional tower-based gameplay with chaotic first-person shooting, up to five players can buy & upgrade their own towers while also upgrading their own heroes to defend your base from a neverending onslaught of bots!

You aren't the only ones who came equipped. Bots here are not just damage sponges! They come in a wide variety and have a significant number of abilities. They may build jump pads, throw each other across the map, resurrect each other, tunnel straight to your base or ignore the track entirely to attack you! Indeed, as you shoot these bots, you'll find many shooting back!

That's okay. Defeating them will earn you money. Once you've fought off a wave, you'll have a peaceful moment to go back to the shop, buy upgrades for yourself and your turrets, prestige your hero and open loot chests, or read about bot abilities. You can do all this while a wave is active too!

In summary: kill bots, earn money, buy turrets & upgrades, don't let them reach the base!

version 1.5 currently features: 9 turrets, 27 turret upgrades, 22 hero upgrades, 26 bots, 8 maps.

Turrets

Buy these from the shop and place them along the track to fight off bots or support your team! All 5 players will get to have 9 turrets placed each (that's 45 in total!)
Each turret has 3 upgrades each and can be picked back up after being placed down. Feel free to try different positions!

Bots

Bots will spawn at the start of the track and attempt to make it to the end: your base! Kill them before they can do so, and don't let them kill you first!

All non-boss bots have a chance of spawning as Champion or Super Champion bots. This means they have much higher health, damage, size and will deal more damage to your base. However, they also drop more gold!

Runner Bots

These bots mostly do not bother with attacking you. They are focused on their goal.

Hero	Ability
Tracer	Has low hp, but runs at extra speed!
Moira	Phases intermittently, becoming fast, invisible & invincible!
Sigma	Uses kinetc grasp, then reflects damage absorbed back at you!
Lucio	Has normal health, but runs at even extra speed! (replaces Tracer)
Reaper	Each time a bot is killed, grows in size and health!
Brigitte	Constantly holds a shield in front of her, blocking directional damage!
D.va	Moves slowly while in Mech, but moves 3.5x as fast in pilot form!
Sombra	Is completely immune to turrets, and spends most of her time invisible!
Winston	Does not walk, but leaps across the path at intervals. Can sometimes drop barriers!

Damage Bots

These bots will make sure to attack you on the way to your base!

Hero	Ability
Soldier:76	Fires his gun in short bursts!
Pharah	Flies overhead, firing rockets at players!
Widowmaker	Uses an SMG. Can attach herself to other bots, and will use a sniper rifle while doing so!
Orisa	Will fire high speed, high knockback spears at players!
Junkrat	Lobs bombs. On death: damages players & bots nearby and boosts nearby bots forwards!
Doomfist	Will use meteor strike and land on a random part of the track, then shoot players on his way to the base!
Vendetta	Will spin-dash off the track and attack players! She will not attempt to reach your base, only kill you!
Juno	Flies high overhead, shooting players and spawning speed rings!
Venture	Burrows to the end of the track, then walks backwards to the start, shooting players as they do so!

Support Bots

These bots may not attack you, but they will support other bots in destroying your base and killing you!

Hero	Ability
Mercy	Heals bots in a radius! If she finds a dead bot, she will attempt to revive them!
Roadhog	Slow and high HP. Will pick up nearby bots and throw them forwards along the track!
Zenyatta	Will make a nearby bot invincible until this zenyatta is killed!
Wuyang	Spams healing waves that knockback players. On death: heals bots in a radius!
Torbjorn	Moves slowly. Will build boost pads that push bots along the track and last for the entire wave!
Baptiste	Can turn other bots into Champion bots!

Boss Bots

Every 10 waves, you will instead face off against one ultra-powerful boss bot. What do they do? You'll have to find out yourself!

Ramattra
Freja
Symmetra
Illari
Junker Queen

Player Feedback & The Future

This mode is complete but will still receive updates!

I always love hearing feedback from people, please message me in the comments if you have any ideas or suggestions! I'm happy to implement ideas for new towers, bots, upgrades, map features or balancing.

I'm currently reviewing player heroes, specifically those who struggle in PvE environments, and am hoping to give them unique buffs so they can be played in this mode. Widowmaker, for example, struggled a lot until I gave her a damage buff and a unique passive that brought AoE damage into her kit. If anyone has any other heroes they would like reviewed, let me know!
