Star Points in Clash Royale allow players to show off their favorite in-game cosmetics but you’ll want to know exactly how to upgrade them and what you can earn by using them in the beloved game. So, here’s everything you need to know about star levels and Star Points in Clash Royale. 

Firstly, gaining access to these coveted Star Points is a milestone achieved when you touch King Level 6 in Clash Royale. But a word of caution: the journey to amass these points to max out every card in your arsenal can be time-consuming. Due to this, our advice is to strategically focus on upgrading only those cards that form the backbone of your decks.

Not all cards can be upgraded to level two or level three, with some maxing out at two stars, and others at one. However, the release of more Clash Royale star levels is expected to happen with future updates. Until that happens, star level three is the highest level available for only a few specific characters in the game.

What do Clash Royale star levels reward?

Star levels in Clash Royale are purely for cosmetic purposes. This means, upgrading a specific card’s star level will only alter their in-game visual appearance and nothing else.

Other than that, you will need a specific amount of Star Points to upgrade a card’s star level to a specific point. Having said that, the cost of Star Points is the same for every card at any given specific level. Here’s a chart that shows how many Star Points you will need to upgrade at which level.
