A new Champion, Boss Bandit, makes her debut in this update. As the fearless leader of the Forest Gang, she is the first 6-Elixir Champion rarity card in the game.

She possesses a powerful dash attack similar to the Bandit but comes with an exclusive ability, Getaway Grenade. This allows her to drop a smoke bomb, disengage from combat, and teleport to safety, allowing players to reposition her effectively during battles.

Additionally, the Executioner is set to evolve in the upcoming Clash Royale March 2025 update. His throws will now deal extra damage to nearby troops and apply a slight knockback effect, increasing his durability on the battlefield.

One of the most significant changes in the Clash Royale March 2025 update is the removal of the Season Shop. While some players used their tokens to the fullest, many others missed out on rewards due to the extra steps involved.

To make rewards more accessible, they are now being redistributed across various parts of the game. The most valuable items will now be found in Pass Royale, while banners can only be obtained through events and challenges.

The Chest Queue system is also being replaced with an immediate reward system. Players will no longer receive chests after winning battles. Instead, they will earn Lucky Drops, Cards, Gold, and Crowns instantly, eliminating the long wait times after every game.
