Update Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUbilbLrWpk Key New FeaturesIt’s HIGHNOON with the Desperado!Pretty much everything we do in BTD6 is a labor of love, but the inspiration for Desperado is such an awesome combination of community requests for cowboy/gunslinger Monkeys, the team’s interest in fun additions to the Bloons world and lore, and the design opportunity to push strong mechanical variance on the 3 paths while keeping crosspathing tactically compelling.With 3 potential automatically alternating weapons, the Desperado starts off with a fast pistol attack that can dispatch two back-to-back targets at a high range before reloading. While lacking in pierce, the base attack can very reliably hit straggler Bloons. The Desperado swaps between weapons as upgrade paths progress, prioritizing shorter-range weapons as Bloons come into close range.Top path’s quickdraw fires faster the further Bloons are away, and then upgrades to a powerful revolver that fires a rapid burst of 6 shots before reload. Then they double it - ya got two hands don’t ya! Upon upgrading to The Blazing Sun, these revolvers fire so quickly that they are said to overheat in a blinding flame!Bottom Path gains a short-range Blunderbuss that fires buckshot with such force that Bloons are thrown backwards, then adds buckshot to its buckshot with further shrapnel bursting out on contact! As a lone wolf who prefers to work on their own, this path has the grit to withstand almost anything, passively reducing the life damage taken from Bloon leaks while gaining buffs to itself and reclaiming cash from lost Bloons. Little is known of this lone specter of the wastelands but The Desert Phantom is said to be a near unassailable force, locking down swarms of MOABs with every trigger pull and cutting down countless Bloons in explosive chain reactions that leave no trace behind, not even their hats.Middle path gains a slower firing Rifle with exceptionally high range and the skill to increase the chance of critical the further targets are away! Their hunter’s eye never loses sight while they signal bounties on Bloons, making those targets take extra damage from any Desperado and grant more cash when popped. The mythical Golden Justice is even more adept at critical damage and it is said that once locked on, Bloons cannot escape its sight no matter the number!Desperado comes with 2 Middle Path abilities;Take Aim - A Tier 3 ability granting any target tower Camo Detection, increased range & improved accuracy for a short time. At Tier 4 this is enhanced to also grant Purple, Black & White Bloon poppingMarked to Pop - After quickly marking extra targets, the Desperado will rapidly fire shots at any distance at as many marked targets as...New Monkey Coming June 18!Jun 11, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsUpdate 49.0 drops next week on June 18.Pretty much everything we do in BTD6 is a labor of love, but the inspiration for Desperado is such an awesome combination of community requests for cowboy/gunslinger Monkeys, the team’s interest in fun additions to the Bloons world and lore, and the design opportunity to push strong mechanical variance on the 3 paths while keeping crosspathing tactically compelling.With 3 automatically alternating weapons, the Desperado starts off with a fast pistol attack that can dispatch two back to back targets at a high range before reloading.

Key New Features - LegendsLegends heralds a new way of looking at designing and building updates for BTD6. The team has so many exciting ideas, many of which could be full standalone games, and Legends gives us a way to push forward with groundbreaking ideas while maintaining the continuity of BTD6 and its awesome community.These DLC should be separate and unique enough not to feel required but to offer a very alternate way of playing. We will continue to focus on a huge variety of content that players get at no additional cost to the base game, but as these features get bigger and bigger, the team does need to keep new IAPs and DLCs coming into the game to support future development.Rogue Legends! You’re gonna want to turn your sound on for this one! The first Legend available along with this update is a BTD rogue-lite adventure, featuring a randomly generated replayable single player campaign. Build a party as you progress through the campaign; with a hero, up to 10 accompanying pre-crosspathed towers, and Artifacts to enhance their powerMore than 10 unique hand-crafted tile based campaign maps to exploreCampaign maps featuring multiple paths to plan your own route through to the world, then take on a multi round Stage Boss Featuring an all new, fast-paced Rogue Bloons roundset to learn and master (new hints included!)Challenge tiles with alternate conditions featuring Boss Rush, Races, Endurance Races & Least Cash; these are optional to play & but grant scaling rewards based on performance to boost your team through their journey, also no lives will be lost from your first attempt on any of these tiles so feel free to trial them!Merchants & Campfires to engage in trades and enhance your partyCollect from over 60 unique Artifacts as you progress through the campaign, boosting towers with incredible power ups & unique mechanicsMake impactful choices mid-game with temporary Boosts choices that last until the end of the current match including stat buffs, insta-monkeys & powers. Bad options? No problem - reroll them for in game cashDefeat the Stage Boss to find Legendary boss-only artifacts & extract any artifact from the current game to earn a permanent copy that can be applied right from the start of a new CampaignStage Boss defeated & want to keep going?

Tacks, blades, fire - what more could there be? Well, plenty actually, as the Monkeys realized they can cram blades full of hot tacks! We could leave it at that, but for those who’d like a little more detail, read on!Constantly attacking with a short range maelstrom of white hot blades that burst into a nova of tacks when they expire, this paragon creates quite a spectacle to behold. The tack monkey inside (!) is unable to see unrevealed Camo Bloons, however with its 2 abilities this isn’t enough to hold back its power.Maelstrom ability: given that the main attack already is a permanent maelstrom, this ability gives the tower a massive temporary increase to projectile lifespan & pierce in order to greatly expand the coverage of that local maelstrom. While this is occurring, high pierce jets of blue flame will periodically blast around the tower to wipe out any smaller targets. This is a coverage & cleanup ability, so it has an extremely short cooldown but is not a single target damage dealer.Meteor Impact: As the Maelstrom ability is more of a utility, a second ability is here to bring the damage! Meteor Impact calls down a blast that deals high damage to an unfair area, and any Bloons foolish enough to withstand the initial impact will be wiped out when this meteor breaks apart into a ring of 32 homing fireballsNew Revenge Map, Last Resort!For those who thought Resort was too much of a chill vacation. Although honestly it really doesn’t look all that bad to me, maybe everything’s fine and it’s just a nice winter resort?Battle Cat Crossover!Heralding our new integration partnership with the Masters of the Universe brand from Mattel, Battle Cat is featured as the first of several drops planned through 2026.Check out Battle Cat in his very own Quest and on most platforms as a highly effective, single-target, purchasable Power.More details: Using the Powers tab, place the timid Cringer and he’ll stick around untransformed for the whole game, meekly swiping at a few Bloons. You’ll notice he comes with an activated ability, though. Activate this and he transforms into Battle Cat, tearing into Bloons, knocking them back, and applying a powerful damage over time that also nullifies Bloon immunities. This ability is so powerful, it can’t last forever, so after a few rounds Battle Cat must portal back home to Eternia.On most platforms, Battle Cat Powers can be obtained via the Battle Cat Prestige Pack that comes with tier 5 Beast Handler Insta Monkeys, an exclusive Avatar, and an exclusive Banner and for repeat use the Battle Cat Booster Pack that also comes with a selection of Insta Monke...Bloons TD 6 - Version 45.0 Update Notes!Oct 8, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsUpdate: Bloons TD 6 v45.0 - Update Notes!

Update Video: https://youtu.be/j3P5dBAHZyM Key New FeaturesNew Boss Bloon Blastapopoulos, the Demon of the Core has returned!While in play, towers suffer from reduced range & ability cooldown rate.Blastapopoulos passively burns off damaging effects applied to them, and has the Purple Bloon type property. Damage type enhancements can get around this as normal, but this doesn’t change projectile temperature!Overheating! Most projectile hits heat up Blastapopoulos, with anything weak to purple (fire, lasers & plasma) increasing heat even more, so use these damage types at your own risk or bring along some Ice attacks to cool things back down! Whenever maximum heat is reached Blastapopoulos vents the excess, briefly stunning towers & increasing ability cooldowns then superheating the area for a short time, causing all projectiles to burn up faster than normal.Skulls when triggered will fill up a portion of Heat, and spew out a number of Fireballs & Pyroclastic Rocks.These Fireballs will target your towers & create debuffing pools of magma around their targets while the Pyroclastic Rocks land around Blastapopoulos to form impenetrable barrier rings around the boss until they expireYou’ll need to carefully manage your heat to avoid dire consequences!New AwesomeNew Advanced Map, Ancient PortalBoth ancient and modern, the portal has clearly moved this map through time, so they can easily shift Bloons from one path to another.

Update Video: https://youtu.be/cb22AG0JIVw Key New FeaturesNew Tower, fresh out of ***MONKLANTIS***, the Mermonkey!Smash them with abyssal tentacly creatures, freeze and wash them away with enchanted waves, and lead them astray with mystical melodies! The Bloons will tremble at the might of the Sea, even on land!Players have been asking about new towers and the community has suggested the existence of a Mermonkey since BTD5, so yes we’ve done it! We are committed to adding new towers to the game when we see genuine spaces for unique tower design and gaps in existing tower synergies, especially in different game modes and Events. Mermonkey adds a valuable water tower outside of the Military category, and the designs relating to range from target, buffs, and ice synergy are intended to spark new placement strategies, fun combos, and interesting tier list discussionsMermonkey starts as a low range amphibious tower with a large vision increase when placed in water. They throw a single trident that pierces twice and can damage up to 3 Bloons each time it does, making it effective during earlier dense rounds where this can overlap. Crosspathing choices include Attack & Projectile Speed, AoE & Freezing, or Seeking & VisionTop path Mermonkey fights side by side with a mysterious sea creature that attacks in all directions, slows Bloons down with inky tridents, and enhances all towers within a radius with a percentage pierce increaseMiddle path attacks with freezing waves that grow larger and more powerful the further they travel, with the wave eventually crashing to form a unique T-shaped attack! They deal increased damage to any Frozen targets, and with the Ice Jet ability, fire a quick barrage of bouncing ice projectilesBottom Path lures Bloons off track with an irresistible melody to dance around the Mermonkey for a short time while also detonating any damage-over-time effects on those Bloons to deal all the remaining DoT immediatelyFinal note for PC players; We plan to continue working on new towers after Mermonkey, and as we grow closer to maxing out standard keyboard space for reasonable hotkeys we realize it’s not going to be viable to start shuffling these around every time to maintain anymore. So we have decided not to assign any default hotkey for new towers going forward, however we have added the space for a hotkey to be assigned manually within the hotkeys menu.New AwesomeNew Hero Skin, Dreamstate PsiDrift off into pleasant Bloon-popping dreams with the adorable new Dreamstate Psi skin.

Update Video: https://youtu.be/97SrSDiSNfk Key New FeaturesNew Event, Boss Rush!We are so psyched to release this event! We have heard the many requests for more Team activities, and after testing some functionality in Quests, we are so happy to release a very different way to play as a Team. Thank you for your feedback and patience, and we truly hope you enjoy!Band together with allies to defend against the powerful Boss Rush threatening your Team. With multiple Boss threats looming on the horizon, you and your Team must work together to defend nearby islands from a variety of invaders!To assist in pushing back the threat players are outfitted with Relic Knowledge to leverage and a number of Revive Shields that will recover you from 0 lives! But be careful, Revives are limited and each time one is triggered the Boss will rush closer to the exit.These Bosses cannot be destroyed alone, so when defending any island your goal is to deal as much damage as you possibly can before they make it past. When your Team reaches enough combined total damage the island is successfully defended and you can progress to the next island, with a new Boss to defend against!Between islands some monkey types must stay behind to defend, but additional Relic Knowledge will be acquired to assist in the next challenge.Defend 5 islands, each with a fast paced Boss challenge against different Bosses out of the initial 3 available: Bloonarius, Dreadbloon & Phayze. (Vortex & Lych to be coming at a later date!).Immediately after defending an island, all Team members can claim the island rewards!For launch we are releasing with a pure Team focus without competitive leaderboards. This allows us to review balance and get feedback from players before making changes in future updates. Boss Rush has evolved to be much bigger than the minigame-like concept it was initially planned to be and we look forward to seeing all of your Teams defend their islands together! The Event Timer shows when the next Boss Rush will start - less than a day after launch.New Code Redemption SystemThis new system will allow us to create gift packs that can be redeemed by anyone with the code for free in-game rewards, so keep an eye out for any codes we may share (or hide…) in future!Due to privacy requirements, certain platforms won’t be able to enter the codes directly in the game.

This is an industry leading share amount, which we aim to maintain; after the platform fees, Ninja Kiwi and Nexus.gg have the smallest shares of these purchases, as they truly are meant for the player creators.Revenue share is available on platforms with IAP systems. We’ve tried to make Accolades receivable wherever possible, but we must restrict this to players who register with Nexus according to their terms and to players on non-subscription platforms. We are looking for solutions for subscription players but this will take significant time.New AwesomeNew Hero Skin, the Gentlemonkey Gadgeteer Geraldo!

Advanced Intel insanity is super fun.While Submerged the sub attacks with a radiation aura that obliterates a huge number of smaller targets with ease, but the main uses in this form are the massive damage and pierce buffs to all Heroes & other Subs within radius. Really hoping to encourage some fun placement synergies here.At all times Submerged or not, the Final Strike ability can be called on to unleash devastation. That really should be capital “D” Devastation.New Map, Sulphur SpringsWe’ve had fun roundabout maps in BTD5 and we harken to that around a different visual theme than usual and effort behind specific placement locations.New QuestsPat Fusty Hero TestPsi Hero TestMOAB Madness - still great and even betterNew Trophy Store ItemsHeroes: Benjamin pet - it’s a mouse of course!

The first is that CHIMPS is unapproachable for new players and a very difficult gameplay loop to initially get excited about and break into, and the second is that the majority of the people who are invested in this gameplay loop already don’t play it within the base game most of the time since the Challenge Editor makes it more approachable. Given this we have made the following changes:CHIMPS mode now allows for a 'Retry Last Round' op...Bloons TD 6 - Update Notes!

Available now for iOS, Android & Steam please restart your storefront or be patient if it does not appear for you, these updates can take some time to be rolled out to every region due to how the storefronts are set up. Key New FeaturesEvents Menu OverhaulOur events menu was getting longer and longer, and perhaps a little too reminiscent of our Flash gaming roots. We’ve moved everything over to a new and improved events menu with all active items visible at a glance and estimated countdowns for upcoming events.Co-op daily challenges will now last multiple days up until the next challenge cycles around for more time to complete and less downtime between them.Boss ChallengeWith more Bosses came more downtime between each Boss appearance. To remedy that and to massively extend the ability to practice different strats and maps, we’re opening up a persistent Boss Challenge system!Any Boss Bloons not currently in an active event can now be challenged at any time on a map of your choice, even tougher maps where we won’t generally run Events.Boss Challenge can be accessed from the new Events menu, or via the Boss Menu.Along with this, we’ve ensured that every map now has a designated Boss Spawn track so that there is no randomness to where they will come from.New AwesomeNew Hero: Corvus the Spirit WalkerAfter months of work developing the complicated balance and technical aspects of a Hero with so many combinable elements, we are so happy to confirm that Corvus will indeed be in Update 40! We’ve seen the community speculation about whether we’d get Corvus released this year, and while it wasn’t easy, not only did the team rally but we’ve had significant time to balance and bugfix. We hope you enjoy playing this very unique Hero!Corvus fights alongside his lovable Spirit companion, which will attack Bloons anywhere on the map following his target priority. Corvus harvests Mana from Bloons and uses this to channel powerful energies through his Spirit companion to perform many powerful attacks from his spellbook (which we think isn’t in any way cursed or possibly sentient)Corvus himself is able to debuff a single Bloon at a time with his Haunt, which removes regrow and purple properties and enables increased energy damage. When destroyed, Haunted targets are absorbed as Mana and then explode, dealing strong area damage.Because much of Corvus’ power comes from Spells, proximity to Bloons for Haunting and Mana generation is essential, and we think it suits Corvus’ personality to be near the frontline, too. At Level 7, Corvus gains the ability to Spirit Walk mapwide, which allows repositioning if other Monkeys start pop stealing too much.Corvus can be unlocked for 7000 Monkey Money. To date he is the most complicated and in-depth Hero in BTD6 and as noted has taken months of work and revision.

The Beast Handler commands and controls powerful beasts that crush, scratch, carry, and chew up and spit out Bloons. Players can unlock the Beast Handler with a special Quest. Quests are also new this year, and we've got 13 in the game, with another batch coming in update 40 and huge plans for where we can go with Quests. Then, as if a new tower wasn't enough, map creation came to BTD6 with the Map Editor. The Map Editor allows you to create custom maps with a huge selection of tools at your disposal. The creativity of the community, from day 1, literally (figuratively) blew our minds. It's astounding to think that this is just the beginning of the potential of the map editor. Check out the Trending and Most Liked maps in-game and keep an eye out for more showcases of awesome maps players have created. We've had new Hero skins for Pat Fusty, Sauda, Etienne and Admiral Brickell. The Magus Perfectus, Wizard Paragon. New maps. Competitive and Casual modes for Contested Territories. New Boss rules (least tiers, least cash). A new boss, Phayze, the Reality Warper. Tonnes of new cosmetics. Plenty of balance changes, bug fixes and quality of life improvements... There's probably even more stuff I'm forgetting. Thank you for loving this game as much as we do. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34128020/8644070cc73722fe000dd158039fb8cd42b2ed2c.pngGeraldo, ZOMG, and Alchemist plushies - Available Now!Nov 16, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsWe have once again teamed up with Makeship to bring Bloons TD 6 to life (in plush form, of course).

Version 39.0Oct 9, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsAvailable now for most (Still processing on Epic, Netflix, Amazon and Arcade no ETA yet) please restart your storefront or be patient if it does not appear for you, these updates can take some time to be rolled out to every region due to how the storefronts are set up. Update Video: https://youtu.be/-1M6aUdjzso Key New FeaturesMap Editor!We are so excited to release the Map Editor, in planning for 2 years and in active development this whole year. Bloons has a long history of player created content and we are delighted to add Map creation and sharing to BTD6 in the most robust and in-game format ever available! We stretched to include as much capability as possible in this first release, and we already have a long wishlist for future updates, and we’ll temper that after seeing what incredible creations you come up with and the top features you’d like to see included in updates. Have fun and please share your creativity with your friends and the whole community!Other player’s custom maps can be played right from level 20 when the Content Browser opens upFind the Map Editor via the Edit Map button inside Play Social, or from the Create button in the Content Browser Maps tabDon’t be surprised - there is an unlock gate for Map Editor. At player rank 50 Map Creation can be unlocked for 6000 Monkey Money (same ballpark as the top Hero skins and fully grindable), or directly via IAP (on platforms that have IAP), which we included in response to players looking for more ways to support the game and future updates. The rank unlock helps ensure that players have a reasonable understanding of the game and how map obstacles and difficulty work before they get to work creating their own.Most importantly, Map Editor works on all platforms and devices. We’ve never been able to provide an editor this robust in-game and on all devices before, so we’re thrilled to offer this level of creative control on all devices including phones.Please see more details about the Map Editor features and scope below!New AwesomeNew Hero Skin - Book Wyrm EtienneSwitching out drones for dragons seems like a pretty awesome thing to do. A favorite of the team, channeling many of our book-devouring nerdy pasts (and presents!), Book Wyrm celebrates the power of imagination that has led most of us to make and play games.New (Revenge) Map - Dark PathContinuing the BTD tradition of more challenging versions of favorite maps that started with Rink Revenge 10 years ago, Dark Path takes the pristine triple back park setting and flips both the Bloon path and the placeable areas on their heads.

Version 38.0Jul 25, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsBloons TD 6 v38.0 - Update Notes! Rolling out now, please restart your storefront or be patient if it does not appear for you, these updates can take some time to be rolled out to every region due to how the storefronts are set up. Check out the more awesomer update video here. Key New FeaturesNew Boss Bloon, Phayze!As existing Bosses continue to be tuned and refined, designing new Bosses becomes increasingly complex to find both visual and functional differences that truly mix up play styles, approach to eco, and Monkeys used. We knew camo would be a focus but the movement and entry migration proved to be essential as Phayze’s design took shape. We hope you enjoy the challenge!Phayze has the Camo property and spawns with a Reality Shield that increases its movement speed while the Shield is active. Monkeys can destroy this shield to reduce Phayze’s movement speed back to normal againPhayze triggers a Radar Jam every 24 seconds - this restores its Camo property if this has been lost & for 12 seconds grants Phayze immunity to any form of camo removal as well as disabling all shared Camo-granting buffs from towersWhen Radar Jam occurs Phayze also pulls all Bloons forward to Phayze’s Location and grants them the Camo propertyWhen each skull is reached, Phayze rebuilds the Reality Shield and warps forward, while opening a tear in the fabric of reality that allows for all Bloons to spawn further along the track. Note that the warp is proportional to track length, so shorter warps on short tracks and prepare for startling warps on longer tracks!Skulls also trigger a stacking slow aura around Phayze, which reduces the attack speed of all Monkey Towers until the boss is defeatedContested Territory Competitive ModeWe’ve heard the community feedback and have wanted ourselves to help Teams define themselves as Competitive or Casual, so we’ve developed a system that allows Teams to set their stance to attract players with the same mindset as well as sign up for each CT and lock those Team rosters in to acknowledge and help address some of the Team griefing that we’ve seen happening.We’ve pushed the cadence for Contested Territory back one week to give time for Teams to review this new system and sign up for Competitive play.Mayors can now set their team stance inside their Team settings. All existing Teams will default to Casual, so Mayors will need to set their stance to Competitive in order for the team to sign up for each CT’s competitive leaderboards. Team members can send canned chat requests to set stance to Competitive.Teams that have been set to Competitive stance will appear in the Team search with a new shield icon indicating this Competitive stance and interest in recruiting competitive players.We understand that some Teams have been playing competitively with dormant Mayors. If you are on a Team with a dormant Mayor and want to play competitively, you can consider leaving your Team and using the Team search to identify Teams with the Competitive ...
