Brawl Stars x Stranger Things update: New Hypercharges and more
The Brawl Stars x Stranger Things update brings one new Brawler, three new Hypercharges, and the highly anticipated collaboration, along with new balance adjustments and other fixes.
It also brings in new Hypercharges for Pam, Ali, Ziggy, and Mina. Check out the brief descriptions of the Hupercharges below:
- Pam: Mama's Love: Pam's turret heals on deploy. It continues to heal Brawlers over their max health by providing them with a decaying shield.
- Alli: Swamp Snacking: Alli heals for 20% of damage dealt during her Hypercharge, and her main does max percent health instead of current percent health damage.
- Mine: Triplecane: Super now fires three hurricanes in a cone shape, which can bounce. However, note that the Gadget to refresh Super does not synergize with Hypercharged Super.
- Ziggy: The Grand Vortex: The Hypercharged Super returns to the position that Ziggy is at after reaching its max range/lifetime (not homing).
You can also check the balance adjustments for this update from our previous article while waiting for the Brawl Stars maintenance break to end today.
While this update feels a little short, the Brawl Stars developer has promised to bring another Brawl Talk with more new content by the end of November 2025.
