The game is a boss-defense twist on tower defense: you hold your castle against endless waves of heroes by summoning minions, leveling a skill tree, and unlocking new weapons. It has passed about 28,000,000 visits and holds more than about 710,000 favorites, with about 2,400 players in game right now.
Below is what’s live, what just ended, and how interest has stacked up across the game’s recent updates. We update this page as the schedule changes.

Current and upcoming events
Update 6: live now
Update 6 went live August 22 at noon ET (9 a.m. PT, 5 p.m. UK, 2 a.m. AEST on August 23) and runs through August 28. The developer has teased it under a blunt “don’t miss it” banner but hasn’t published specifics, so its new content isn’t spelled out on the calendar. Interest is still building — more than 2,500 players have marked themselves interested so far, well short of where the previous update landed.
Update 5 and Update 4: the run-up
The two updates immediately before it show how much the audience has grown. Update 4 ran August 8 through August 15 and drew over 87,000 interested players. Update 5 followed from August 15 through August 22 and did even better, pulling close to 99,000 sign-ups — the biggest turnout of any update so far. Both began at noon ET on a Saturday and ran exactly one week, the same cadence Update 6 is following now.
What the game offers
Beyond the schedule, the game has grown steadily since its early updates. Its feature set now includes a castle skin system, a raid boss event, several new leaderboards, an auto-roll rework with gifting, and bulk unit upgrades, alongside balance and visual improvements. The developer says updates land weekly and sometimes more than once a week.
The next update: dated August 29, contents unannounced
Another update is already on the calendar, scheduled to begin August 29 at noon ET and run through September 5. It’s listed only as the next update with contents still under wraps — the date is set, but nothing about what’s inside has been announced. A few hundred players have marked interest so far.
