Clash Royale revisits the past with Retro Royale mode

Author : Savannah Apr 12,2025

Supercell is taking fans of Clash Royale on a nostalgic journey back to 2017 with the introduction of the new Retro Royale Mode. This exciting update, available from March 12th to the 26th, brings back the game's launch meta and cards, offering players a chance to relive the early days of the game while competing for exclusive rewards.

In Retro Royale Mode, players will have access to a limited pool of 80 cards as they climb the Retro Ladder. The challenge is to ascend the 30-step ladder, with each step offering Gold and Season Tokens as rewards. As you progress, the competition intensifies, especially once you reach the Competitive League. Here, your starting rank will be determined by your progress on the Tropy Road, and your performance in Retro Royale will be key to climbing the leaderboard and showcasing your skills.

It's interesting to note that while Supercell has been focused on keeping their games fresh, as seen with the recent removal of Troop Training times in Clash of Clans, the introduction of a retro mode in Clash Royale highlights the balance between nostalgia and innovation. The Retro Royale Mode not only taps into the fond memories of the game's early days but also offers tangible rewards that are sure to entice players to dive in.

Additionally, participants who compete in both the Retro Ladder and the Competitive League at least once will earn a special badge for each, adding an extra layer of achievement to the experience.
