Retro Royale: Clash Royale's Nostalgic New Mode

by Carter Apr 27,2025

Supercell is bringing a blast from the past to Clash Royale with the introduction of the new Retro Royale Mode, taking players back to the game's 2017 launch experience. This nostalgic mode will be available for a limited time from March 12th to the 26th and offers exciting rewards as players climb the Retro Ladder.

In Retro Royale Mode, you'll have access to a curated selection of 80 cards, reminiscent of the game's early days. As you ascend the 30-step ladder, you'll compete for exclusive rewards including Gold and Season Tokens, making every match a thrilling challenge.

The competition intensifies as you progress through the ranks. Upon reaching the Competitive League, your starting rank will be determined by your progress on the Tropy Road. From there, your performance in Retro Royale will be key to climbing the leaderboard and showcasing your timeless skills.
