NEW GAME MODE?! Trophy Road Rework, New Legendary and MORE! | TV Royale

This update introduces a brand new game mode.

Clash Royale Merge Tactics!

It's a fast, strategic battle mode where you summon, merge, and upgrade troops to outlast your opponents.

We're also reworking Trophy Road and Path of Legends.

And dropping a brand new legendary card like nothing you've ever seen before.

And a new evolution.

Note to self, never ask Spirit Empress for a ride ever again.

Lucky she didn't drop you into a dragon pit.

Honestly, I think she tried.

I'm Marko.

I'm Donald.

Welcome to TV Royale.

We've reworked both Trophy Road and Path of Legends, and Path of Legends is now called Ranked.

There's a new arena at 9,000 trophies called Valkala.

And if you were paying close attention, you might have already spotted it sneak into the game earlier this month.

With this, Legendary Arena now moves up to 9,500 trophies, and we're extending Trophy Road to 10,000 trophies!

We've noticed a lot of players getting stuck around 5,000 to 8,000 trophies, and matchmaking starts to get a bit tougher there.

By extending Trophy Road to 10,000 trophies, we're giving stronger players room to dominate, more epic battles, and more chances to prove what they're made of.

Once you hit 10k, you'll unlock brand new seasonal arenas where the real climb begins.

Seasonal arenas will have rewards for climbing.

Make it far enough and you'll have a chance to earn a seasonal badge.

Reach the top and it upgrades to flex even harder.

Finish the last seasonal arena and you'll unlock access to Ranked until the season is over.

You can also get instant access to Ranked in July by reaching Master 1 in Ranked during the June season.

In future seasons, unlocking Ranked will require reaching Champion, but the early leagues will be shorter, making the climb faster if you got what it takes.

This way, Trophy Road stays rewarding for most players, while Ranked becomes a true competitive grind.

If you want to play Ranked next season, better start pushing now.

So, Donald, ready to climb with your precious royal recruits again?

Please, just promise you won't rage quit seconds after you show up.

speaking of things worth showing off let's talk about badges we're introducing a new rarity system that means clearer categories better hierarchy and honestly they just look way cooler now seasonal and yearly badges will stand out and yes we're keeping your old badges too just grouping them a little differently this is just the start we're hoping to do more with badges in the future so keep an eye out on how they'll show up in your profile and beyond

Say goodbye to the events tab.

And hello to a new way to jump into events and challenges.

We've moved all events and challenges into the game mode switcher, so everything's easier to access from one place.

We'll be trying out different game modes to focus on what's fun and engaging.

So let us know what feels good and what you want to see return.

All right, so what's this new game mode, Merge Tactics?

Only one way to find out.

I was just waiting for someone to switch.

Alright, so what is Merge Tactics?

The first turn-based game mode in Clash Royale.

It is an unusual combination of ruthless battle royale survival and casual merge mechanics.

Yes, you heard it correctly.

Summon two of the same troops and merge into a stronger one.

So it's all about managing elixir, building smart combos, and keeping your board under control.

Before the match, you'll pick a ruler.

They don't fight, but they provide powerful bonuses for your players to build stronger teams that fight even harder.

Then there are traits, special match modifiers that change every game.

Some speed up upgrades, others power up specific troops.

Every match, you'll build a different team to fight for you, so your strategy keeps evolving.

Merge tactics is one of the attempts of bringing new experience in Royale.

We can't make these attempts successful without your feedback.

So give it a try and tell us how you feel.

And if it's not your thing, no worries.

We've got more coming your way.

Thanks, Dan.

I'll see you in the arena.

Whoa, what the ?

That was wild.

Where were you?

Can I try it?

Maybe next time.

All right, this July season, there's a new evolution.

How one skeleton barrel was annoying enough, now it drops two.

When it takes damage, it drops the first barrel and keeps chugging along with the second.

That means double the impact and double the skeletons.

Perfect to overwhelm distracted defenses or take down a tower before they know what hit them.

Last but definitely not least, a brand new legendary card lands in the arena.

She's a six elixir legendary card, but for the first time in Clash Royale history, you'll get two cards in one.

So, if you have less than six elixir, you can play her as a three elixir melee troop with strong single target damage, making her great for defense in a pinch.

But if you wait until you have six elixir, she charges in on a dragon flying above and dealing heavy damage from the sky.

You'll always see which version you're about to play.

Just check her elixir cost.

Did we mention she rides a dragon?

Those are the highlights for the summer update.

Try it all, tell us what you think.

And read our blog post down below to get the full info.

Before I forget, once the update drops, we've got a crown chase event where you can collect cool rewards.

See you in the arena.

And cut.

Can you smell that?

Yeah.

Falcon's burning?
