Quick snapshot

Squad Busters is a free-to-play, team-based action title that blends characters from across Supercell’s catalog into frenetic, colorful battles viewed from above. Players assemble squads drawn from familiar franchises and tackle varied arenas inspired by those universes, all presented with the studio’s signature cartoony visuals and energetic soundtrack.

Assembling your crossover team

Create a party by combining heroes from different Supercell games — imagine pairing a Clash Barbarian with a Boom Beach rifleman. You’ll move your squad across maps, hunt for loot, and face off against monsters and rival teams. During the current beta, only a curated roster and a handful of stages are available, focusing on the most recognizable faces to introduce the concept.

Visuals, sound, and hardware notes

The game preserves Supercell’s playful art style: bold colors, exaggerated character designs, and vibrant environments. The music and audio effects are geared toward upbeat, casual play. Because Squad Busters aims for high-quality animations and rich audio, it can be demanding on older devices. Expect frame drops and stuttering on low-spec hardware, especially when many characters and effects appear on screen.

Global release — headline additions

  • Two powerful MEGA Units are being added as major season highlights: Magical Shelly and Kitsune Witch, available through the refreshed Gem Pass with a new set of rewards and objectives.
  • A new in-battle currency, Hammers, can now be collected and spent in the Plaza Shop to purchase cosmetic decorations for your Plaza home base.
  • Ultra Evolutions introduce dramatic character upgrades — brand-new looks and game-changing abilities that let you reshape team compositions and strategies.
  • A broad set of balance changes, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements address early-access feedback to make battles fairer and less frustrating.

Major gameplay rework

Responding to player requests for deeper control and strategic options, a substantial update redefines the core loop. You now pick a single Hero to lead the squad — a powered-up variant with unique Power Moves — and assemble supporting units called Squaddies that offer tactical synergies. The update raises the stakes: if your Hero is defeated, the entire squad is eliminated, so team composition and in-battle decisions matter much more than before. Overall, this overhaul shifts the experience toward more deliberate, skill-driven encounters.

Final thoughts

Whether you’re drawn by the familiar characters or the fresh tactical twist, Squad Busters repackages beloved Supercell elements into a new, addictive multiplayer format. It’s recommended for fans who enjoy cartoonish aesthetics, team-building mechanics, and competitive, fast-paced matches.
