The latest season of the coveted Forge Pass has just been unveiled in *Raid: Shadow Legends*, a western-themed turn-based RPG that's got everyone talking. With the new update rolled out on April 29, 2025, Season 26 brings a host of new champions, exciting content, and thematic events and tournaments to the mix. The Forge Pass remains one of the top methods for players to snag new gear and other valuable loot, refreshing every two months with a fresh set of challenges to help boost your pass level. In this guide, we'll dive into what Season 26 of the Forge Pass has in store and how you can make the most of it to propel your account forward.
Forge Pass Season 26
Forge Pass Season 26 kicked off on April 29, 2025, offering players a new array of challenges and rewards to chase. This season features both a free (Core) and a premium (Gold) track, each with its own set of enticing benefits. The standout exclusive gear set this time around is the Defiant set, which reduces damage from Area of Effect (AoE) attacks and boosts defense, significantly improving your champions' survivability across various game modes. If you're into using tanky bruisers in the arena and other PvP battles, grabbing this pass might just be the upgrade you need.
As with previous seasons, the Forge Pass is split into two categories – the Core Forge Pass and the Gold Forge Pass. Let's break down the differences:
