June 2026 Update: Princess Evolution, Hero Tombstone and Princess Gambit
The June 2026 update brought an Arctic-themed Princess Evolution, the first building Hero in Tombstone, a deck-free Princess Gambit mode, and the Collection Levels rollout.
The June 2026 update paired fresh content with the biggest progression simplification of the year. Princess became the latest Evolution, firing an icy arrow on her first shot and every third after that, slowing enemies on impact and leaving a frozen area when she is defeated.
Hero Tombstone made history as the first building-based Hero: its Regal Revival ability destroys the Tombstone so the Tomb Queen rises from the ground and marches on enemy buildings.
Two new ways to play arrived — Princess Gambit, a deck-free mode dealing from a 40-card random pool with only Princess Towers and sudden-death stakes, and Victory Run, a three-lives event with checkpoints that restore progress.
Collection Levels replaced King's Journey and XP as announced, Mastery switched to Gold-only payouts, the Seasonal Trophy Road split into two arenas (the second banning your eight most-used cards), and Pass Royale gained gem-skips, purchase-streak rewards in testing, and a limited-time Mini Pass.
