"Squad Busters Unveils Major Hero Update"

Author : Peyton May 24,2025

The latest update for Squad Busters has just hit the scene, and it's a game-changer! The spotlight is now firmly on Heroes, with squaddies playing a supportive role. Dive into the action with your power moves, upgrade your squaddies, and experience gameplay that's faster and more intense than ever.

Squad Busters has had its ups and downs in the popularity charts. At its heart, it remains a fun and accessible MOBA-like game, but it hasn't quite reached the heights Supercell might have hoped for. However, this new update could be the draw that brings skeptical players back for another round.

This update is touted as the most ambitious one in Supercell's lineup in over 15 years, fundamentally shifting Squad Busters' gameplay. Gone are the days of squads made up solely of units; now, they're divided into powerful Heroes and supportive Squaddies.

Heroes are the backbone of your squad, equipped with unique abilities and passives that make them central to your strategy. Squaddies, on the other hand, operate similarly to the old units but can now be upgraded mid-match. A significant change is that your squad no longer needs to stop to attack, though doing so will boost your squaddies' attack speed.

I need a hero—This update essentially redefines Squad Busters, making your squad more resilient and shifting the focus from a pseudo-RTS MOBA to a more traditional MOBA experience. It's all about leveraging your Heroes and their 'power moves' while your squaddies provide the necessary support.

While some might miss the original design philosophy, it's tough to dispute the impact of these changes. Squad Busters initially captivated me, but I found myself not returning often. The shift to a hero-centric approach makes player actions feel more meaningful and engaging.
