The April Update brings the most significant change to Clash Royale's reward system in years - instant rewards after every battle with no more chest queues or timers! Here's everything you need to know about the new system.
NO MORE queues. NO MORE timers. INSTANT rewards after every Battle!
We've completely removed Chest Queues, Timers, and Keys!
We want to eliminate every barrier that's stopped you from collecting rewards at your own pace, so we've simplified Battle Rewards and combined them with daily win rewards.
Now you can Battle as much as you want with no restrictions and earn exciting rewards immediately after each match!
New Reward Structure
Battle Rewards now include Lucky Drops, Bonus Rewards, and Crowns. Bonus Rewards can be either Random Cards or Gold. Random Cards are chosen from those you've already unlocked and can be Common, Rare, or Epic, depending on the Card rarities available in your current Arena.
How New Battle Rewards Work
For your first 3 wins* each day, you'll score:
- Lucky Drops
- Bonus Rewards
- Crowns
Your next 7 wins* will bring you:
- Bonus Rewards
- Crowns
After that, every win will keep the Crowns coming!
- Crowns
* For four weeks following the update launch, we'll be testing different reward variations and the number of wins might change. Don't be alarmed if your rewards are different from your friends'.
Bonus Crowns
For your first 3 Battles each day, you'll earn 5 extra Crowns per Battle — up to 15 bonus Crowns daily.
Transition from Old System
What Happens to Chests Queue and Chest Keys
Chest Queue
If you have any Chests in your queue, they'll be instantly opened and the rewards granted.
Chest Keys
Chest Keys will be converted into Gold and then removed.
Conversion Rate: 1 Chest Key = 5,000 Gold
Maximum Conversion: 30 Chest Keys (150,000 Gold)
Season Rewards Changes
With this update, we've closed the Season Shop in its current form, removed Season Tokens, and shared Season Rewards across the game.
Despite offering many great rewards, the Season Shop wasn't very popular. Some players didn't participate in seasonal events, while others didn't know the shop even existed.
We want to make the best rewards accessible to all players and give everyone the freedom to enjoy their favorite modes without being forced into seasonal events.
