How to Change World Tiers

World Tiers can be changed either in the lobby or pause menu (titled Game Menu). Clicking on the World Tier option in either area will bring up the World Tier selection screen.

Here, you can enable whichever World Tier is desired. However, not all tiers are unlocked by default. A progress bar separate from the player level fills up over time as XP is earned. Filling the bar unlocks the next tier.

If the “Auto Set Highest Available Tier” setting is turned on, the game will automatically make the switch when a new tier becomes available. It is recommended that players find a comfortable tier for their initial campaign run instead of letting the game boost the difficulty by itself. World Tiers are not a natural progression appropriately scaled for those not yet in the endgame.

Here are all available World Tiers and their associated bonuses.
