- Major update
A large quality-of-life patch. The changes that matter most for progression: four extra formations that unlock with Town Center level, a weekly free-Gem chest, a reworked Fishing Tournament, and Governor Gear / Charm upgrades split into smaller stages (same total cost). Weekly and Monthly Cards also let you pick your tier now.
What's New
4 new formations
Unlock step by step as your Town Center levels up.
Kingdom Waystation
A weekly chest with free Gems.
Fishing Tournament rework
Seaweed Guide, seasonal missions for Fishing Points and Island Decorations, a 10x Power Cast option, and a max-level starting Fishing Kit at set progress.
Governor Gear & Charms
Upgrades for Mythic T2 (3-Star)+ gear and Lv. 5+ Charms are split into smaller stages; total materials are unchanged. Legendary+ gear also adds Squads' Deployment Capacity.
Weekly / Monthly Cards
You choose the Epic or Mythic tier yourself, and several card rewards were upgraded.
✅ What to Do After This Update
- Open the formation screen and check which of the 4 new formations your Town Center already unlocks; save your Bear Hunt and garrison setups again.
- Claim the Kingdom Waystation Gem chest every week — it is free.
- On the Weekly / Monthly Card page, pick Epic or Mythic after the first pack refresh instead of keeping the default.
- If you were just above a Kingdom Transfer power cap, check again at the next transfer window — the top two caps went up.
- Plan Governor Gear and Charm upgrades by stage: the total cost is the same, but you can now spend materials in smaller steps during events.
