Mobile Legends Update: Hero Adjustments and Balance Changes

While the MLBB community is enjoying everything the various running events of the game, one of the looming questions in the community is when we can expect the next Mobile Legends Update.

Among all the events since the last update, the Stardust Vault and the Lunar Scion's Summon have been the highlights. By taking part in these events, players can earn some exclusive resources and skins. However, given that the last Mobile Legends update came out last year, the community is eager to find out what's in it for the first update of the year.

When is the next Mobile Legends Update?

As per the hero update, the last hero who was introduced in the game was Sora. Following the arrival of the fighter/assassin, the hero rose in popularity rather quickly. As of now, Mobile Legends Marcel leaks suggest that this will be the new hero of the game. While the abilities and skills of the new hero have been teased, there have been no dates given as to when we can expect him.

Coming back to the next Mobile Legends Update in general, as of now, MOONTON Games has yet to specify any official release date. However, there are quite a few events and hero revamps that we are expecting to arrive soon.

What will be in the next Mobile Legends Update?

While Moonton hasn't specifically shared what we can expect from the next Mobile Legends Update, there are a few things that are in the cards and expected to arrive in the game soon. We are expecting a total of seven hero revamps in the game:

In addition to this, we are also expecting the arrival of Fanny Limited Legend Skin Event, the Lancelot and Odette Valentine Name Skins, battle effect updates, and other arrivals in the game. We already had Eudora and Alucard skin revamps. However, the jury is out on whether or not we will have all of this come into the game in a single update.

List of all Mobile Legends Updates

Now that you have an idea as to what you can expect from the next Mobile Legends Update, let us take a moment to look back at the updates that have arrived in recent months. In the latest MLBB update that came in on 31st December 2025, we saw multiple equipment adjustments, battlefield adjustments, and in-game hero adjustments. Check out the dates of the recent MLBB patch updates below:

How often do Mobile Legends updates come?

Unlike other mobile games, when it comes to updates, Mobile Legends does not follow a consistent route for updates. At times, there are two MLBB updates in the span of two weeks; other times, it can be a whole month of the game without any updates. For example, the Patch 2.1.30a update in November 2025 came after 1 month and 3 days.

That being said, most of these major updates come with events where the players can earn exclusive skins by taking part in the in-game events. Speaking of which, check out our Mobile Legends Gift skins article to learn how to gift skins to friends.
