The new seasons in Clash Royale are always an exciting part of the game since we get a lot of events and rewards based on different themes. This March 2024 is also the same, as the game is celebrating its 8th birthday, and hence the season is named ‘Electro Birthday’. As part of the Season-wise introduced Card Evolutions, we have the common card Zap being more “electric”. In this article, let me provide you with a glimpse of what Clash Royale Season 57 March 2024 Update has in store regarding new skins, emotes, rewards, and other additions.
Clash Royale Season 57 Electro Birthday March 2024 Update Overview
New Card Evolutions: Tesla and Zap
Following the trend of Season 56, we have once again two evolutions coming this season.
Tesla
Another defense card gets an Evolution update, this time Electrified with the Tesla. Coming with an HP buff, this evolution brings the Electro Pulse ability on offer. When the Tesla pops up, it releases an expanding shockwave that damages and briefly stuns nearby troops, both in the air and on the ground. The visuals look super cool for this. You shall need two cycles to activate this.
Zap
The common card Zap has officially become the first spell in the game to get an Evolution update. Marking the 15th Card Evolution, Zap brings a new electrifying experience for the spell. With the evolution ability Triple Shock. As the name suggests, the spell expands and zaps targets within its range three times. Like Tesla, the Evolved Zap requires 2 Cycles to activate its evolution, meaning that every 1 in 3 deploys will trigger the evolved version.
New Tower Skins
Talking cosmetics, in this update, one new Tower Skin has been officially confirmed that can be acquired through the Pass Royale. The DJ Defense tower skin is unlocked at Tier 48 of the Gold Tier in Pass Royale. I’ve been quite surprised by the lack of tower skins recently. We might get a Tower Skin in a special event so we shall wait for the same.
Emotes and Banners
Once again, following the pattern of previous updates, six new emotes will be coming. All the new emotes will be based on the Electro Birthday theme as the game celebrates 8 years. We will only have 2 Banners for Diamond Pass Royale owners, 8 in the Banner Box, 2 free from Community Challenges, and not any in the Season Shop.
Season Shop, Card Boosts, and Offers
The Season Shop has a decent amount of rewards on offer, which can be obtained by exchanging season tokens. Along with the cards on offer, I see banners and emotes being worthwhile investments, as we have cards in Electro Giant, Zappies, Tesla, and Lightning available in the Season Shop for 500 tokens apiece. Wild Shards will also make an appearance in the shop for 6000 tokens.
Card Evolution enthusiasts can find Archer Shards in the Season Shop, and I can see the devs being pretty lazy at this since they had two evolutions last time and to compensate could have brought two Evolutions. Shards can be purchased thrice starting from 5,000 tokens which will add the same value to each purchase. We have three cards picked for boost this time with Electro Giant, Tesla, and Lightning.
For the first time, the Tower Troop will be having a separate section with The Cannoneer making the cut-in as in-app purchases. I see this as a great opportunity once we get more Tower Troops coming in.
