Update 2.6 — Heroes of Legend

Every hero, their own way to fight

The old shared skill picker is gone. All 31 heroes now carry three skills of their own:

• Skill I at level 1, Skill II at level 15, and an Ultimate at level 30
• Fire, ice, poison, shadow, holy light, shields, healing — swapping heroes now changes how you fight
• Skills fire on their own when ready; the rings above your health bar show what's coming
• Your Ultimate charges during a run. Let it fire automatically, or switch on Cast ultimate manually (on the pause screen) and save it for the boss — press R or the arena button
• Every 20 levels your skills rank up (I–V) and hit harder

Deeper dungeons got a little tougher to match. Your run should feel stronger, not easier.

Seventeen heroes, reforged

• 17 heroes return in brand-new heavy armour art with new portraits — Aureos, Solveig, Solenne, Draveth, Nyx, Seraphel, Yen and more
• Torvald has a new face: meet Torvalda, the Wolf Queen
• Every Ultimate has its own icon, and skills hit with brand-new effects
• Heroes now have voices: a battle cry when you enter, shouts on skills and Ultimates, a groan on heavy hits. The arena sound button mutes them

Ready, set, fight

• 3 · 2 · 1 · FIGHT! Entering a dungeon or resuming from pause now opens with a short countdown. The clock is frozen while it counts, so it never eats into your run time
• Prefer it instant? Turn on Fast start next to the Enter button for a single START!
• Auto Dungeon runs skip the countdown entirely
• Falling now has a moment of its own: the fight stops, your hero collapses, the screen shakes and darkens — then the results screen opens

A clearer pause screen

Press Space to see your hero's skills at a glance, plus a cleaner run-talent board showing free points, what each talent does, what unlocks next, and how close your next point is.

The First Age comes to the Duel Hall

• 17 new Epic cards: the old hero portraits live on as "First Age" heroes, plus Torvald the Old Wolf. They drop in the dungeons where their heroes awaken
• Champion cards now wear the new art. The collection grows to 183 cards

Quality of life

• Characters window: hover the crest on your active hero to see their Ultimate
• Companions window: hover the crest on your active companion to see what it gives at max level
• New handbook chapter: Hero Skills & Run Talents, in all 12 languages
• Skill panel, arena bar and descriptions translated into all 12 languages
• Smoother runs with lighter hero art, preloaded effects and voices, and fewer hitches mid-fight

Fixes

• Reforged heroes now stand at the right size in the dungeon
• The skill bar always sits above your health bar, in every window size
• Your companion no longer hides behind the skill bar or your hero
• The skill bar no longer stays on screen after a run ends
• "Cast ultimate manually" and "Fast start" are now remembered between sessions
