The big themes of the year
1. Elemental hero sets
Three sets came out: Light, Earth and Dark. Each has a Garrison hero and three combat heroes, one per troop type, with a Bond skill and a Divine skill. Our Elemental heroes guide covers every hero and skill name.
2. New gear and materials every few weeks
Almost every update added a new item and a new material to farm or buy: Celestial Gemstone, Illusion Hero Weapons, Draconic Stones, the Mystic Fox Emblem and Duskshadow Equipment. Each one is a new place for resources to go.
3. The Supreme Mystic Soul
Added in 24.2.0 and expanded in 24.8.0. Per the notes, it fuses six elements and brings Holy Damage and Mystic Soul Revival.
4. Dragons
Dragon Awakening research came in 24.0.0, the Dragon King expansion in 24.3.0, and new runes for the Infinite Realms Dragon King in 24.4.0.
The 10th anniversary (September 2026)
Version 24.8.0 brought the anniversary events: Memories of Avalon, Worldwide Celebration, Mythical Heroes Return, Evil Dragon Conflict and anniversary skins. FunPlus said the anniversary ran from September 4 to September 30, 2026, that Merlin became a hero you can collect, and that the code AVALON10YEARS gives 100 Diamonds to players at level 10 and above. The full code list is in our King of Avalon codes guide.
What about Stronghold 55 and 60?
Players in the official Discord chat say Stronghold 55 arrived about a month ago in some kingdoms and that Stronghold 60 is now out in both Solar and Lunar kingdoms. We found no written official notes or guide that confirms the requirements, so we leave the details out until one is posted.
What to plan for next
No one outside FunPlus knows the next version. But the 2026 pattern is clear, and you can plan on it:
- A new version every two to four weeks. From 24.0.0 to 24.8.0 took under four months.
- A new hero set every six to eight weeks. Light in June, Earth in July, Dark in September.
- New gear or a new material with most updates. Keep some resources free so you are not caught empty.
For spenders and alliance leaders
- Keep a reserve before each update. New hero sets and gear land often. A balance of Diamonds and speedups saved for launch week goes further than buying in a rush.
- Finish what you started. A full Light or Earth set with its Bond is worth more than a half built Dark set. Do not jump to every new thing.
- Brief the alliance after each patch. Post a short note in alliance chat: what came out, which set fits your main rally troop, and which codes are live. Leaders who do this keep members building in the same direction. See our page for alliance leaders.
- Do not plan around rumours. Stronghold 60 is a good example. Wait for written notes before you spend for it.

A note on the official web store
FunPlus runs its own King of Avalon web store at paykoa.com. Its post in the official Discord says the web store gives more Diamonds than in-app purchases, and the Diamonds can be spent on any pack. If that works for you, use it.
Packsify is for a different need: players who want the exact App Store or Google Play pack bought for them, without doing it themselves.
Where Packsify fits
Updates bring new heroes and gear every few weeks. If you buy packs to keep up, the same money can go further. With Packsify you get up to 13% more pack value for the same money. Packsify buys the exact pack through the official Apple App Store or Google Play, so it lands in your account like any store purchase. Read how we keep accounts safe before your first order.
