Brawl Starsfinally completed the Ghost Station trio by revealing the new brawler called Shade. With Halloween around the corner, I was expecting a brawler that centers around the spooky theme, and I was right.

Shade is a ghost that possesses a pile of clothes and partners with Gus and Chuck. So if you are itching to try him out, here’s when to expect Shade inBrawl Stars.

Brawl Stars Kenji release date

In the recent Brawl Talk, the developers have revealed thatShade will be released on June 09, 2025. Since it’s a new brawler, you most probably have to buy him in a premium bundle or go through some series challenge to get early access. It goes without saying that you can rack up some gems and snag him in the Starr Road.

Since it’s a ghost, you are going to see a lot of strange abilities that not a lot of brawlers are able to perform. For instance, he can pass through the wall (literally spooky) once he uses it’s super. And don’t get surprised if he can hit through the wall, because he can with his main attack.

But there’s a catch: he can only shoot through the wall if you are within his range. So make a note and stay out of sight. Plus, he can also float on water, and the best part is that you don’t even need to activate his super. Also, you can also unlock his new skin called Cinema Shade, which will require you only 29 gems.
