"Squad Busters Unveils Major Hero Update"

May 28,2025 Author: Amelia

The new Hero update for Squad Busters is now live, bringing a fresh dynamic to the game that might just reignite interest among both new and returning players. This update marks a significant shift in gameplay, focusing on Heroes with their supporting cast of squaddies. Engage in faster, more intense battles as you deploy your Heroes' power moves, upgrade your squaddies, and experience a transformed Squad Busters.

Squad Busters has experienced fluctuating popularity since its release. Despite its fun and accessible MOBA-like core, it hasn't fully met the expectations set by Supercell. However, this latest update, touted as the most ambitious in Supercell's portfolio in over 15 years, may just be the draw that brings skeptical players back for another go.

The update fundamentally alters Squad Busters' gameplay. Gone are the days of squads solely made up of units; now, they're divided into powerful Heroes and their supporting Squaddies. Heroes are the new backbone of your squad, each boasting unique abilities and passives. Squaddies, akin to the previous units, can be upgraded mid-match to enhance their effectiveness. A notable change is that you no longer need to stop your squad to attack—doing so will only boost your squaddies' attack speed.

This update fundamentally changes the essence of Squad Busters, steering it from a pseudo-RTS MOBA to a more traditional MOBA experience. The emphasis is now on leveraging your Heroes and their 'power moves' with squaddies providing support. While some may argue these changes deviate from the original design, the shift towards Heroes makes player actions more impactful and engaging.
