Pre-release

Ninja Kiwi first mentioned an "Archer tower" in the update notes for version 52.0, only revealing the idea and that they intend to release it in 2026.[5] They later confirmed in the update notes for version 53.0 that it would release in version 56.0 and that "Archer" was a placeholder name.[3] They reiterated this in the update notes for version 54.0, but also that the tower that would release may be "an evolution of the idea".[6]

Ninja Kiwi released a short teaser video on 13 July 2026 that depicts the silhouette of the Skywarden surrounded by white clouds. They later revealed its finalized name on the Ninja Kiwi Blog on 24 July 2026.[1]

On 26 July 2026, Ninja Kiwi released a YouTube Short showing the unlock screen for Skywarden,[2] revealing its portrait and Magic classification.
