Squad Busters Set for Major Rework and Overhaul

Since its launch in 2024, Supercell has placed significant hopes on Squad Busters, a unique blend of merge, upgrade, and MOBA gameplay. While the game has experienced fluctuating popularity, a major overhaul set to coincide with its first anniversary on May 13th aims to revitalize the experience.

The most notable change in this update is the introduction of heroes as central figures in gameplay. Players can now select a hero to lead their squad, each with unique and powerful abilities. Familiar characters like the Barbarian King and Archer Queen will take the helm, adding depth and strategy to the game.

Another significant modification is the ability to fight on the move. Gone are the days of needing to stop your squad to engage in combat. This update allows for faster, more dynamic gameplay as you can utilize both your hero's and your squad's abilities while in motion. However, you can still halt your squad for more concentrated attacks, ensuring that your muscle memory won't be a hindrance.

Heroes are not just leaders but also crucial to your squad's survival and progression. If your hero falls, your game is over, regardless of how many squaddies you have left. This overhaul fundamentally reinvents the core mechanics of Squad Busters, marking a significant shift in Supercell's super crossover game. Community reactions suggest a positive outlook, with many eager to see how these changes will impact the game's appeal and bring renewed interest.
