Hero Update for Squad Busters Now Live

The latest update for Squad Busters has just dropped, and it's all about the new Heroes! These powerful characters are now the central focus of the game, with squaddies playing a supportive role. Dive into the action with your Heroes' unique power moves, upgrade your squaddies, and experience the thrill of faster, more intense gameplay.

Squad Busters has seen its share of ups and downs in popularity. While it remains a fun and accessible game with MOBA-like elements, it hasn't fully met the expectations set by Supercell. However, the latest update might just be the draw that brings skeptical players back for another round.

This update is touted as the most significant in Supercell's lineup in over 15 years, fundamentally altering Squad Busters' gameplay. The game now revolves around Heroes and Squaddies rather than just units. Heroes are the backbone of your squad, each with their own abilities and passive effects, while Squaddies can be upgraded during matches to enhance their performance. A notable change is the ability to attack on the move, although stopping will allow your squaddies to attack more rapidly.

This shift transforms Squad Busters from a pseudo-RTS MOBA into a more traditional MOBA experience. The emphasis is now on leveraging your Heroes' 'power moves' and using your squaddies to bolster their efforts.

While some might miss the original design of Squad Busters, the move to focus on Heroes makes player decisions more impactful. Personally, although I enjoyed the game initially, I found it hard to stay engaged. The new Hero-centric approach promises to make gameplay more engaging and rewarding.
