Plarium has sent out an in-game mail to players detailing information about the upcoming New Clan Boss in RAID: Shadow Legends.

This new piece of content has been heavily teased over the last few days, which if you are interested in catching up on, head over to our previous New Clan Boss Preview post.

The mail read:

A Battle against a new threat to Teleria awaits!

Rumours abound that this malign creature guards treasure untold, and that only the bravest would ever dare to face it in battle. And so, as some of RAID’s most fearless Clan Leaders, you must be more than experienced enough to step up to the challenge!

Behind the Learn more button lies a tiny morsel of information that might help you and your Clanmates prepare to face whatever lies within the darkness. So take the plunge and embark on this mysterious journey!

Here’s what we learned…
