There’s new things to do, new things to earn, and new ways to build and strengthen your teams. 

With this update, we have introduced over 40 new characters called Mythic Fighters. Each new character is designed with the intent of accomplishing a specific, niche goal in combat. Every character has a purpose. The introduction of Mythic characters will change the meta of the game, however, players will now be able to preserve their progress to date and be rewarded more fully.
