Frost & Flame: King of Avalon will also be debuting Merlin, the famous court wizard of King Arthur, for the first time as a collectible character.

Pulling the sword from the stone
Beyond just those main draws, King of Avalon will also be debuting other tantalising reasons to check in, with mythic hero draws and dragons to encounter, not to mention a variety of special locations to explore and anniversary rewards to grab.
And even if you're a new or returning player, you can also benefit from the anniversary reward, with the code AVALON10YEARS netting you 100 diamonds to play with, although you'll need to reach level 10 or above to claim it.
While King of Avalon definitely apes a few more well-known fantasy franchises, with over 500m players and now a decade of service under its belt, there's clearly plenty going for it if that's the case. It's also an encouraging sign that even the more niche mobile games without huge name recognition can keep on going, even at a tough time for gaming as a whole.
But even then, there are plenty of great mobile releases it's worth keeping your eye on. Why not check out our list of the best mobile games of 2026 (so far) to see what our favourite picks have been this year?
