Only two factions have no deep plans for now - Court of Foxes and Nightmare Circus. Additions of deep delves for them are planned for 08/22/25 and 09/19/25.
What then? Will factions appear on weekends just to provide better prizes than on Tuesdays? Or maybe there will be another expansion for factions? Or should we expect something brand new on weekends instead of faction expansions?
I’ve been wondering about this for a while.
If we judge by the current update schedule, 8.8 and 8.9 should be out by then. Although both are still centered around GW it seems
Maybe 9.0 is the big one introducing another game mode or a big change in something we already have.
Brand new game mode made for loyal players - Guild Journey! Make your path against other players made teams to earn miles, using the most useless troop! Also paid talisman will give you 5/6/7 bonus miles per battle.
Looking at the spoilers spreadsheet a number of new troops have been detected for several faction, of which includes the ‘Hero Statue’ for Hall of Guardian and ‘Shadow Ocularen’ for All Seeing Eye. Scheduled for the normal Friday.
So it looks like we’re getting a second round of troops.
Which rarity? If this is also an epic troop, pulling enough copies for ascension purposes will be hell. Due to how portals work it’s already much easier to max out the legendary faction troop than any one of the epic faction troop.
They’re all listed as epic. I know I always hoped if they went in for a second round they’d up the rarity to a legendary because of how difficult it is to get the epic(s), suppose that was always wishful thinking.
At the moment, we will still have Faction Weekend events and continue to release a troop for each Faction.
No plans to change Faction Weekends currently.
The question was if there will be a 2nd additional (6th in total) troop, after every delve has been done. 
A mythic could be cool same rarity and drop as sacred treasure. And it works as new way to keep the use of shards.
You mean what they did before adding Deep Delves and a 5th Faction troop?
Back then, weekend delves were for brand new factions.
If we look at the planning of future kingdoms and Events, we see that the Deep Delves cycle restarts on October 17 with All-Seeing Eye, then on November 14 with Hall of Guardians, they resume the cycle of original releases which started with the All-Seeing Eye faction on September 5, 2018… and a first time in Deep Delves on May 27, 2022, we just got old for the old ones 
Is it too much to ask, to release all upcoming deep delve troops as Ultra-Rare instead of Epic rarity?
As it currently stands, it is already hard enough to obtain enough epics for a reasonable price in terms of chaos shards
You want them to be a lower rarity?
Would make it easier to pull as Ultra Rares than pulling for a 3rd Epic in a faction. the dilution problem. Epics were sometimes already the hardest as it was before the 2nd Epic.
I’d personally love new Legendaries instead, but I’ll keep dreaming.
If they were lower ultra rares you would need even more chaos shards. Not everyone is using orbs for them
If you’re pulling to max with just chaos shards, having 3 epics is going to be so much worse.
You can already see in-game that Ultra Rares have 12.98% chance to show up compared to a 6.05% chance for Epics before splitting that into 3 different epics.
Yeah, totally agree. A legendary or ultra-rare would be a lot easier to get and max, using only chaos shards, than another epic would be. If it doesn’t affect the power of the troop, make it a lower rarity, please.
I’d like to see them even lower Rarity than that. How about we give them a really mild spell and make them Common base rarity; even if they’re a completely useless troop other than for counting purposes, I suspect players are sitting on Common-rarity medals more than any other rarity and at least this way they could get a little more use out of them.
