2023-12-13
The adrenaline-pumping arena of Brawl Stars is bedecked with virtual streamers and balloons as Supercell announces the fifth anniversary of its wildly popular action game. As confetti cannons blast and the celebration kicks off, a staggering figure stands testament to the game's success: over half a billion players have joined the Brawl Stars phenomenon, racking up an impressive total of 170 billion matches. Among these matches, players have scored a whopping 39 billion Brawl Ball goals, tossed around three billion emojis, and in true Brawl Stars style, utilized two billion life-saving cactus plants by the beloved character Spike.
The game's five-year landmark is not just about looking back but also charging forward, and what better moment to do this than the festive Brawlidays event, the Christmas celebration already set in motion. Supercell's anniversary bash coincides with this event, which is loved for its outpouring of community giveaways and vibrant events. Already underway, the festivities will keep spirits high for weeks to come, ending in January with a slew of benefits for the game’s dedicated players.
Joining the cavalcade of brawlers is Mico, the latest Mythic Brawler introduced into the fray. Mico brings a new rhythm to the battlefield with his unique weapon — a boom mic that zaps enemies with sonic damage. His superpower launches him skyward, granting a brief sanctuary of invincibility. Whilst aloft, a shadow remains, within 天the player's control. It’s on them to maneuver this avatar and rain down havoc on opponents below.
Mico, alongside the Brawlyhood's own Lola and Grey, also sports the added perk of being hypercharged. This boost is not exclusively for the trio, as five additional characters, including Fang, Edgard, Crow, Dynamike, and Leon, will also experience the surge. Eager players drawn to high-energy gameplay can dive into the Hypercharged Unleashed event, a perfect opportunity to try out the new Hypercharges, regardless of whether they've unlocked them or not. This electrifying event is slated to run for two action-packed weeks.
This anniversary is also a time for fans to reap rewards, with more freebies on the horizon. In homage to community collaboration, a fan-chosen skin for Colt is debuting as part of the festivities. This special skin emerged from the creativity of fans themselves, through a community-driven fan art submission process. Colt's new attire will be one of the daily presents up for grabs in the Brawlidays Advent Calendar, ensuring a reward-filled countdown to Christmas.
Looking into the future, Brawl Stars is set to streamline its Brawl Pass. The update next year introduces a monthly Brawl Pass system, replacing the seasonal approach to simplify progression and ensure players can complete each season. It will commence on the first Thursday of every month, giving players a fresh start regularly.
There’s no denying it's been an astounding five years for Brawl Stars. To join the revelry and partake in the anniversary excitement, newcomers and veterans alike are encouraged to download Brawl Stars for free. As this fifth-year fiesta unfolds, it’s the perfect time for players to brawl it out, gather their gifts, and revel in the thrill that only Brawl Stars can deliver. Happy Brawling!
