Supercell's Squad Busters has received a major update, changing its core gameplay by introducing new Heroes, Squaddies, and Power moves for strategic choices and player control during battles.
The update is considered the most ambitious in Supercell's 15-year history, aiming to address player feedback and enhance the game experience.
The game had a disappointing launch despite generating over $100 million in revenue within a year, leading to a revamp of the core gameplay.
The addition of Heroes and Squaddies has transformed Squad Busters, giving players more agency and decision-making capabilities during gameplay.
Players can now strategically choose a Hero and supporting Squaddies, each with unique abilities, to lead their Squad to victory in battles.
The update emphasizes a deeper strategic layer, allowing players to master different combinations of Hero, Power moves, and Squaddies for successful gameplay.
The revamp also introduces a focus on lore, providing players with a richer understanding of the game's universe and characters.
Supercell aims to attract new and returning players with the update, focusing on enhancing player experience and strategic decision-making in Squad Busters.
The team behind Squad Busters worked on the update for months, incorporating player feedback and experimenting with various gameplay elements to deliver a fresh experience.
The game update includes improved controls, new characters, and an enhanced gameplay experience, catering to a midcore audience interested in mobile action strategy games.
