Netmarble's *Tower of God: New World*, inspired by the popular webtoon series, is gearing up for an exciting update that introduces two new characters and a novel grading system. This update is a must for hardcore players, especially with the addition of the Pioneer's Remnant System, designed for those who have already mastered the challenges within the tower.
The first new character to join the roster is Xia Xia, an SSR+ Elite Spy with the Red Element, and tagged as both a Support and a Light Bearer. Xia Xia brings a unique blend of powerful Area of Effect (AoE) support and HP recovery skills to the game. On the other hand, Zahard, an Adventurer with the Green Element, and tagged as a Warrior and Fisherman, marks his debut as the inaugural XSR+ grade character in *Tower of God: New World*.
The newly introduced XSR+ grade aims to differentiate characters that are either an IF (imaginary) version of an SSR+ character or those with an alternate appearance. Although these XSR+ characters may share animations and skills with their SSR+ counterparts, they come equipped with unique Revolution skills that set them apart.
Alongside the new characters, the Pioneer's Remnant System is set to enhance the gameplay experience. By clearing Hard Mode, players can earn the titular resource, which can be traded for growth materials and other rewards. This system is particularly beneficial for players who have already conquered the most challenging stages of the game.
To celebrate the arrival of these new characters, special events named \[Elite Spy\] Xia Xia Release Celebration and \[Adventurer\] Zahard Release Celebration will be launched. These events offer players a chance to obtain either the new characters or other exciting rewards.
If you're planning to dive into *Tower of God: New World* to participate in these events and try to secure these new characters, it's wise to consult our *Tower of God: New World* tier list. This will help you avoid drawing less desirable characters and focus on acquiring the best options available.
