News Tower is available for 19.99 USD/EUR, but savvy players can save 10% on the game during this first week of early access. “I have to tell all my friends,” said one gamer, who hurried home to their personal computer recreation station.

Questions flew about what content News Tower will offer at the start of early access. Players can discover three main quest story lines, with more to come as early access progresses, as well as over 100 items to optimize their towers. Unlock the entire NYC map and report on a range of stories from 1930 to the end of 1932. Future updates will deliver new challenges, skills, items, quality-of-life improvements and more.

Recruit and manage every profession necessary for success, including reporters, photographers, janitors, ad salespeople and more. Uncover exciting stories across the globe, matching your editorial line with readers’ interests – but watch out for powerful factions like the mayor and the mafia trying to peddle influence with unique rewards.
