A new update has landed for the mobile game Skylanders Ring of Heroes that has added a brand new set of high level content and a new Legendary Water Defense Skylander Thumpback.

[User Posted Image]

The "Black Dimension" is unlocked for players who have beaten the existing campaign on Hard mode and sees you face off against increasingly powerful "Shadow" versions of the bosses to earn a new type of evolution currency. That currency can then be used to evolve your level 80 Skylanders in order to reach the new max level 100.

Thumpback will be available through his specific Pickup Summon from tomorrow.

Today's update to the mobile game Skylanders Ring of Heroes brought with it the Swap Force character Free Ranger as a legendary rarity, attack type Skylander and a new Guild Battle feature to give guilds something to do together.

Guild Battles see you placing teams of Skylanders to defend your guild's base from another guild's attacks while you also attack their teams in an attempt to destroy their base. For the full complicated details check out the guide that was posted.

Guild Battles are in beta at the moment so the results won't actually affect the rewards your guild gets until June.

Free Ranger is at the moment available exclusively through his Pickup Summon event "Great Storm Tracker". Each summon attempt costs either 1 Pickup Summon Ticket or 120 Gems. If you manage to make 120 unsuccessful summon attempts you get a guaranteed summon ticket for him. He is not available through any of the other summon types.

Other changes to the game include various buffs for existing Skylanders, a new elemental ore power up system for level 80 Skylanders, changes to the AI for auto battling, a way to downgrade and extract skill stones from upgraded skills, and various other improvements and fixes. See them all in the patch notes.

Following his tease in last week's Episode Dungeon, Flameslinger is now available to own in Skylanders Ring of Heroes.

[User Posted Image]

As usual since he's a Legendary he's only available to get through his special "Pickup Summon" event and for the time being is not available through the regular random summons. But thanks to some unscheduled maintenance today you get 30 free tries to get him.

Just in time for Christmas, Skylanders: Ring of Heroes has released an update today that adds a couple of "new" Skylanders, Mysticat and Chopscotch, and the fourth Portal Master, Ryeo. And there's also a new Christmas themed wheel spinning event running for the new two weeks.

Mysticat and Chopscotch were in the game prior to the revamp and oddly missing at the relaunch but they're back now and ready to join your squad with their newly revamped abilities. Mysticat is only available to summon from the special Magic Sphinx Cat event summoning but you should be able to randomly summon Chopscotch from any of the summons.

Portal Master Ryeo is unlocked at Academy Level 15 and has the ability to increase your Skylanders' attack power. You can read the full notes over on Hive.

The long awaited complete overhaul of the mobile game Skylanders Ring of Heroes has finally gone live today, bringing with it the new turn based combat system.

[User Posted Image]

The scale of the changes has meant that all progress has been reset, so you'll have to start building your teams all over again. If you played the game's previous version then you will receive a one time gem reward based on your Portal Master Level.
