Paladins "Wild Hoard" Update Kicks Off Year 7 With Trials Return, 20 Item Shop, And New Cosmetics
There's also a reworked UI, more Hubs, an improved Event Pass, bug fixes, balance adjustments, and more.
The "Wild Hoard" update for Paladins brings forth the beginning of Year 7, marking a departure from the usual Season terminology.
Season 7 of Ranked will commence for players of the free-to-play hero shooter with update 7.2 in February. The update brings back the Trials of the Realm after a year of hiatus, featuring a reworked UI, 8 Hubs, and various challenges for them to complete — with new rewards and cosmetics available. The Event Pass undergoes changes too, now having 36 levels and rewards per pass, an increased price of 400 Crystals, and adjustments to progression. Eventful Chests are introduced as well, offering more flexibility in unlocking cosmetics.
Year 7 has begun as Wild Hoard is LIVE now! 🐉💰
Explore the return of Trials, craft new builds in the improved 20 Item Shop, and become the mighty Dragrin with our latest set of cosmetics!

Additionally, the Daily Login Crystal rewards are reduced to values from September 2022. The Item Shop sees significant changes with the addition of 4 new item options, increasing the selection from 16 to 20. Notable adjustments include the splitting of Haven and Resilience into two items each, introducing a new Utility item called Hoard, and adding Healing and Offense items.
Also, the Primal Court map undergoes restoration with regrown trees, and Loadout Decks see an increase from 6 to 9 per champion, and the Wild Hoard Event Pass introduces the Dragrin theme with Grovos Grover and Flameborne Jace skins.
Finally, mode rotations are updated, and Limited Time Modes like Beyond, Old School, and Bizarre Bazaar are introduced.
(Besides all of the above, there's a load of bug fixes and balance adjustments!)
