Players rank-up after earning sufficient amounts of Experience Points (XP). Ranking up unlocks new items, such as Weapons, Towers, Perks, and occasionally achievements. The current rank cap is 50, with 16 weapons, 20 towers, 63 perks, 8 loadout slots, and 7 achievements to unlock.

Gameplay Notes[ | ]

  • Players gain experience primarily by killing Enemies.
  • Experience is rewarded either after the last wave in campaign, or after the core is destroyed in survival.
  • Small experience bonuses are awarded after each wave, based on various accomplishments. These are the only kind of experience points that can be gained from Sandbox mode, though is far less productive than even a brief Survival run.
  • Experience earned is increased by 20% for each active Feat of Strength, up to a total of 100%.
  • Each DLC increases the maximum rank cap and adds additional items to unlock.
