How to unlock Heroes in Clash Royale

by

Clash Royale received a major update in December 2025, introducing Hero Cards – a brand new type of unit. These cards are essentially stronger versions of familiar troops, each with a special ability that adds a new dimension to gameplay.

Players are curious about how to obtain Heroes, as they aren’t unlocked in the usual way. Here’s a simple explanation of how Heroes work and a step-by-step guide to unlocking them.

Steps to Unlock Heroes in Clash Royale

Heroes are like upgraded troops – they look different and have a special ability activated with a dedicated button, much like Champions. However, they’re more powerful. You’ll select either Heroes or Champions for your deck, as they both fill the same slot.

I briefly explained how to unlock Heroes in my detailed guide, where you can find a complete list of available hero cards. Here’s a breakdown of all the ways to unlock them:

From Hero Fragments

  • Collect Hero Fragments from the left side of the Pass Royale, where Hero Boxes reward fragments based on the stars you earn.
  • Climb to higher arenas to receive stronger boxes that drop more fragments.
  • Play seasonal events like the December Crown Chase, which guarantees your first Hero for free.
  • Claim fragment rewards and occasional direct Hero unlocks from the Pass Royale.
  • Earn bonus fragments when you pull duplicate Heroes, giving you Hero cards plus 60 extra fragments.
  • Reach 200 Hero Fragments to unlock a random Hero for your collection.

From Pass Royale

The quickest way to unlock Hero cards in Clash Royale is through the Pass Royale. The paid version of the Pass gives you a Hero card almost immediately.
