We'll list out all the details we know so far about the next batch of Heroes that are coming to Clash Royale.
In Clash Royale, Heroes are a special troop type where troops gain unique abilities and effects when their Hero form is activated.
Heroes essentially combine the active ability of Champions and the stat buffs of Card Evolutions into a single form, which makes them incredibly powerful in any battle or game.
Typically speaking, new Heroes are introduced to Clash Royale at the start of every new season—a schedule similar to Card Evolutions. However, the exact cards that receive a new Hero form are only revealed shortly before they are added to the game. Supercell tends to hand out teasers days in advance to give us an idea of what to expect.
Mega Minion & Goblins Will Receive A Hero Form
Two Heroes will be added to Clash Royale in the coming update: Hero Mega Minion and Hero Goblins.

Hero Goblins feature a 1-Elixir ability that allows players to summon another wave of Goblins at a banner on the Arena. This banner is dropped at the exact spot where the last Goblin of the Hero Goblins swarm is eliminated. This ability can only be used once, with the banner disappearing a few seconds after it is dropped.
Meanwhile, the Hero Mega Minion's ability allows players to target the enemy with the lowest maximum HP anywhere in the Arena. Upon activation, the Hero Mega Minion immediately teleports to this target and strikes them. If it targets a Tower, this troop will deal less Tower damage for a few seconds.
When Will The Next Hero Be Added to Clash Royale?
The next batch of Heroes will be added to Clash Royale in Season 80, which begins on February 2, 2026.
You have a chance of unlocking these Heroes by collecting 200 Hero Fragments. We say you have a chance at unlocking these new Heroes because once you collect a sufficient amount of Hero Fragments, you will be rewarded with a random Hero.
This resource can be obtained by opening Hero Boxes. Higher rarity Hero Boxes will reward you with a greater amount of Hero Fragments.
