All Clash Royale Evolutions in order of release

The month is when Supercell released the Evolution, taken from the season, event or update post linked in each row. Rows marked * have no launch post on Supercell's blog; their month comes from the community wiki, and the source column shows the first Supercell post that names them. Rarity is the base card's rarity from the game's card data.

The Supercell lineup for the Choose Your Fighter event of August 2024 confirms that Mortar, Bomber, Wall Breakers and Zap all existed by then, and the May 2024 balance post already tunes all four. Only their exact launch weeks are missing from Supercell's blog.

Clash Royale evolutions by year and rarity

2024 was the busiest year with 17 Evolutions, including two in some months: Bomber and Wall Breakers in February and Tesla and Zap in March (per the community record), Goblin Giant and Goblin Drill in July, P.E.K.K.A and Mega Knight in September, Musketeer and Cannon in November. October 2025 also had two, Skeleton Army and Royal Ghost.

The Legendary Evolutions are Mega Knight (Sep 2024), Lumberjack (Feb 2025), Inferno Dragon (Jun 2025), Royal Ghost (Oct 2025), Princess (Jun 2026). Supercell called Lumberjack "our second Legendary Evolution" in the Lumber Love post, which makes Mega Knight the first. No Champion has an Evolution; Champions share the Hero slot instead, as our card types guide explains.

New Clash Royale evolutions in 2026

From December 2025 to March 2026 the new card forms were Heroes, not Evolutions: four Heroes in December, two each in January, February and March. In its Upcoming Changes post of 20 February 2026 Supercell wrote that "a new Evolution is arriving in April" and "there will be no Evolution in May".

What each 2026 Evolution does, in Supercell's words: evolved Minion Horde turns each Minion invisible and invincible for a few seconds after it takes damage. Evolved Princess fires an icy, slowing arrow on her first shot and every third one after. Evolved Elite Barbarians throw Rage-tipped spears at faraway enemies. Evolved Electro Giant sends out a growing electric pulse that shrinks and de-levels enemies in range. The current season's events end on 2 November 2026, and as of 23 October Supercell has not announced the next season's card form.

Every free Clash Royale evolution event

Searches for "all free evolutions" usually mean these events. Each row is a Supercell announcement. Most needed Card Evolutions to be unlocked first (King Level 7 in 2024) or a minimum Arena.

How the Evolution slot changed since 2023

So in Ranked today you can field at most two Evolutions: one in the Evolution Slot and one in the Wild Slot. Supercell's February 2024 post said over 66 % of players at that level already had two Evolutions when the second slot arrived.

How to unlock an Evolution in 2026

Pass Royale tiers and Wild Shards are covered in our Pass Royale guide. Evolutions are also among the most tuned forms in the game: 26 of the 104 nerfs in 2026 hit an Evolution, as our 2026 balance changes list shows. For the Hero side, see the full Heroes list.

Sources and editorial scope

Reviewed on 23 October 2026. Every release month links the Supercell post it comes from on the Clash Royale blog (supercell.com/en/games/clashroyale/blog); all 560 English posts in Supercell's sitemap were checked. Key posts: Card Evolution, June 2023, May 2024 Balance Changes, Free Evolution Event, August 2024, Upcoming Changes, 20 February 2026, Mid-March Update 2026 and the 2026 season posts up to Shocktober, 5 October 2026. Months marked * (Mortar, Bomber, Wall Breakers, Zap, Goblin Giant, Goblin Cage) come from the community wiki because Supercell's blog has no launch post for them. Card rarity is from the game's card data as published in RoyaleAPI's cr-api-data.
