Tower of Fantasy has announced on Twitter that the global version is now available on the App Store and Google Play. The developer Hotta Studio thanked players for their patience and hoped they would have a pleasant trip on Planet Aida with fascinating stories.

Hilariously, in the character creation contest that Hotta studio held to promote the game’s official release, Hu Tao and Keqing from Genshin Impact won first and third place, respectively. Previously, several media outlets and many players have suggested that Tower of Fantasy overlaps too much with Genshin Impact in terms of gameplay. When Tower of Fantasy was released in the Chinese market, players created a large number of characters very similar to Keqing.

Tower of Fantasy was originally launched on December 16th, 2021. The game then opened the first beta test for the global version in June 2022 while running a worldwide pre-registration event. Before the official release, the game had reached 2.5 million pre-registrations.
