The developers of Brawl Stars released a special edition of Brawl Talk on October 31, 2026, dedicated to three upcoming seasons at once instead of the traditional two. This is related to preparations for the winter holiday season of Brawlidays 2026.
Main Announcements of the Episode
- Changes to Ranked Mode: the developers are preparing another wave of balance adjustments for the ranked system. The update is intended to make the mode accessible to players of all skill levels while maintaining a competitive environment for pro players.
- Three New Brawlers: since the episode covers three seasons at once, the developers presented three new characters, who will be released one per month during the winter period.
- Brawlidays 2026 Events: thematic events are planned for the winter holidays in the game, along with unique Brawl Pass skins and the possible return of special boss modes.
The previous Brawl Talk episode was released at the end of August 2026 and was dedicated to the “Back to School” and “Brawloween 2026” seasons, during which the robot Cosmo and the character Vince joined the roster. In addition, the game hosted a crossover event with Duolingo and the Last Chance Qualifier took place.
The updates are being released ahead of the year’s final esports tournament — the Brawl Stars World Championship 2026. The world final will take place from November 20 to 22 in Tokyo.
As a reminder, FURIA won PGL Masters Bucharest 2026, while NAVI and FUT finished the tournament in the top 8.
