Brawl Stars 2025 Update Revamps Trophy Road, Introduces New Modes, and Expands Competitive Gameplay

Listeners, there have been several significant developments for Brawl Stars as of July 2025. Supercell has recently rolled out a major update that brings new game modes, a Trophy Road rework, and fresh rewards, as well as ongoing competitive events and community discussions about game balance and player progression.

The latest June 2025 update introduced two brand new game modes called Knight Fight and Dodgebrawl, alongside the return of the popular Token Run mode. A major focus of this update is the complete overhaul of Trophy Road, now inspired by the world of Starr Park. Players progress through themed “Worlds,” each representing different areas and brawler groups within Starr Park. The update initially launches with the Town Square and Retropolis worlds, with plans to expand and add more worlds in future releases. The Trophy Road’s cap has also been extended from 70,000 to 100,000 trophies, giving top players more reasons to keep pushing their limits[2].

Reward changes are another headline from this update. The reworked Trophy Road now features an expanded list of reward types, including Legendary Starr Drops, Hypercharge Starr Drops, Mythic Starr Drops, Power Points, Coins, Credits, and Bling. Notably, rare and super rare brawlers are now exclusively obtainable via Trophy Road rather than gems. Any unclaimed rewards from the previous version, such as brawlers or other loot, are automatically credited to player accounts. The new system merges and expands on past features, bringing in rewards that used to be available only through the retired Masteries system, and introducing new kinds of loot[2].

Supercell has acknowledged the importance of both random and deterministic reward systems. The developers observed that major updates like Mastery and Bling were well received but noted a player decline after the removal of Boxes in 2023. The subsequent introduction of Starr Drops stabilized and then reignited player growth, leading to a player base three times larger than the same period two years ago. As the studio seeks to balance both fun, random rewards and clear, goal-oriented progression, they’ve stated their intention to add more deterministic rewards, starting with a buff to the Brawl Pass, and to continue experimenting with how random rewards are distributed in the future[3].

In addition to update news, Brawl Stars’ esports scene remains lively. The Brawl Stars Championship 2025 continues with its July Monthly Finals taking place, showcasing top competitive teams, especially from regions like EMEA, and drawing significant attention from the community[4].

Brawler balance and rankings are also hot topics. Recent community discussions have highlighted certain brawlers as underperforming in the current meta, emphasizing the need for ongoing adjustments to keep gameplay balanced and engaging[5].

As of July 2025, Brawl Stars is actively evolving, with new features, rewards, and competitive opportunities keeping the community engaged and the player base strong.
