Unknown
Unknown was previously removed on the 5th June 2026, though it has been made available through the Sandbox mode later.
It is not accessible anywhere else in the game. This page will attempt to include information about both the version before removal and its re-added version.
Description
The Unknown was a high health enemy that appears in Hardcore mode. Currently, it can only be spawned in Sandbox mode if the player has the Sandbox Plus+ gamepass. It has slightly slow speed while also having high health. The Unknown has a Stomp ability that creates a shockwave which stuns towers. It also deals 1,000 damage to all units in the shockwave radius, which is enough to destroy the majority of them, with the exception of the Railgun Tank, Riot Guard and the Executioner Skeleton.
The Unknown can be spawned by the Void Reaver.
Appearance
The Unknown is a large humanoid entity, taller than the Giant Boss. It is faceless and has a grey reflective body with small humanoids coming out of it. Its left leg is twisted, and its head is slightly tilted downwards.
Strategy
This strategy refers to the state of the game while the Unknown still appeared in Hardcore mode.
- Unknowns will usually spawn in small groups. If the Unknown is not eliminated within a short period of time, the ability may stun many towers.
- Because its Stomp is smaller than major bosses' Stomps, it is recommended to kill the Unknown from a distance.
- The Ranger is a good long range cliff tower that can target this enemy at a distance, making it useful against this enemy.
- The Brawler is also useful due to its high DPS and the ability to knockback the enemy.
- They are also immune to stuns, making them even more useful.
- High DPS towers, such as the Turret, Accelerator and Golden Minigunner are required to defeat this enemy due to its high health, however they can be stunned by its ability.
- You can use the Medic to shield towers from the stun that the Unknown can cause.

Trivia
- This is the first and only enemy to have a Stomp attack that is not a major boss.
- The appearance of the Unknown is somewhat similar to the Void from Tower Battles, with the humanoids coming out of its body in the same pattern.
- Additionally, both of them have a Stomp ability.
- During Hardcore Testing BETA, the Unknown had 8,000 health.
- The death sound of the Unknown is a pitched down version of the Shadow Boss's death sound.
- Weirdly, the health of the Unknown was increased in MEGA Servers, despite it not being able to spawn in a MEGA Server without admin commands.
