There is a mix of old and new mobs for players to encounter. Each sure to test each adventurers skill and prowess.
The trailer reveals a Twisted Warden along with an intimidating copper monster that is sure to teach players the importance of powerful gear and weapons. A mob, whose name is yet to be uncovered, is shown appearing as jellyfish-like and menacing. There are also peaceful mobs such as a blue bunny mob known as Blub.
