REDISCOVER THIS

Play it again: Brawl Stars

Read why we still love the game’s speedy matches and punchy personality.

In Brawl Stars, you don’t just fight – you brawl. Pick from a growing cast of wild, weird and wonderful characters, and jump into bite-size battles packed with tense moments and plenty of chaos.

Not played in a while, or brawling for the first time? Here’s how the game has shaped up since its launch in 2018 – and why the App Store Editors are still eagerly diving into the fray!

Jump into mayhem

Brawl Stars is built for fast, action-packed competition. Matches last just a few minutes, but there’s never a dull moment. From classic 3v3 showdowns to frantic battle royales, the goal changes depending on the mode, but the thrill stays the same.

Level up your Brawlers to dominate the battlefield.

Each Brawler has their own look, moves and super-abilities. Want to charge head first as El Primo? Attack from afar with Piper? Blow everything up with Dynamike? There are plenty of play styles to choose from. Try out different characters, unlock new ones and level them up to make them even more powerful.

One more round

Brawl Stars is constantly evolving, and its frequent updates keep its dedicated community coming back. New Brawlers, skins and game modes drop throughout the year, plus special events and challenges that keep things fresh.

Win matches, get Trophies and rise to the top of the ranks!

Recent, game-changing updates have included Hypercharges, which are active abilities that unlock at Power Level 11, and Gears, passive abilities used to customise your brawlers. Collect and play around with Gears to suit your Brawler and personal play style.

Brawl to the top

Think you’ve got skills? The best players can test themselves in the Championship Challenge, a global competition open to anyone who can string together enough wins. It’s the first step towards esports glory, and maybe even a shot at the Brawl Stars World Finals.

Gem Grab is one of the many Game Modes you can Brawl in.

But it’s not all about high-stakes play. Brawl Stars has a huge community of players, and you can always jump into your favourite game modes, Club Events, friendly matches or custom game maps just to mess around and have a blast.
