What changed in Act 3
Act 3 shipped on 31 October 2026 with two more tracks: Zombie (Scavenger: eat five corpses in one run) and Werewolf (survive two nights in one run). That brings the documented total to eight classes.
The official changelog had not posted the Act 3 Shop Drop 3 item list when this page was rechecked on 3 November 2026. The mastery tracks themselves are live.
Choosing a route
The community lists 13,000 XP and 10 levels to complete a track. Daily tasks supplement ordinary play; they are not a guaranteed XP-per-hour route. Check the active task before a run and do not assume every reward stacks in every mode.
