Update 28 is one of the most significant updates in Blox Fruits history. Featuring the long-awaited Dragon rework, new Sea Events, balance adjustments, and quality of life improvements, this update has fundamentally changed how we play the game.
In this comprehensive changelog, we cover every new feature, balance change, and bug fix included in Update 28.
🐉 Dragon Rework - The Biggest Change
The Dragon fruit received a complete overhaul in Update 28. Previously considered overpriced for its performance, Dragon is now one of the best fruits in the game.
New Dragon Moveset
The reworked moveset focuses on flight and fire-based attacks:
| Move | Key | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Dragon Claw | Z | Forward slashing fire attack |
| Fire Breath | X | Massive cone of fire damage |
| Dragon Flight | C | True flight with fireball shooting |
| Dragon Transformation | V | Full transformation with stat boosts |
| Infernal Dive | F | Devastating dive bomb attack |
Why Dragon is Now Top Tier
The rework transformed Dragon from a B-tier fruit to an S+ tier powerhouse:
- True Flight - Dragon Flight allows sustained aerial combat, essential for Sea Events
- Massive AoE - Fire Breath covers enormous areas for group content
- Damage Increases - All abilities received significant damage buffs
- Better Animations - Smoother, faster attack animations
Dragon Trading Value Changes
| Before Update 28 | After Update 28 |
|---|---|
| 40-50M | 100M+ |
The value more than doubled because Dragon is now essential for end-game content.
