When Does Mobile Legends Bang Bang Season 42 End?
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Season 42: Starward Decade launched September 16, 2026 as the game's 10th-anniversary special season. Moonton has not published an advance official end-date announcement for the season-to-season transition; it typically confirms the exact maintenance window only a few days ahead, so the December 16, 2026 date tracked here is a cadence estimate based on the last few seasons' roughly three-month lengths, not a pre-announced date.
Ranked points, mythic emblems and season rewards reset the moment Season 43 begins.
What's New in Season 42: Starward Decade
Starward Decade is the ranked season built around the game's 10th anniversary. Moonton skipped a brand-new hero at launch and put the work into existing heroes, the main map and a run of anniversary rewards.
Eight Revamped Heroes
Masha gets the deepest rework: her basic attacks now deal area damage, her second skill is now a blink, and her ultimate stuns before it bursts. Bruno changes almost as much, since his ultimate, Worldie, is now a long-range hook that stuns one hero and drags them to the edge of his attack range instead of bouncing to strip armor.
The other six anniversary heroes, Brody, Kadita, Badang, Clint, Paquito and Luo Yi, received visual reworks rather than kit changes.
Sanctum Island and New Battlefield Effects
Sanctum Island launched Season 42 with a visual overhaul. Three gameplay-altering battlefield effects arrive with the annual map change later in the season:
- Revealing Wisps: pickable wisps that hunt down and reveal hidden enemy heroes nearby.
- Golden Turrets: turrets with more HP that pay out more gold when destroyed.
- Healing Turtle: slaying the Turtle now spawns an ally that pushes a lane and heals teammates close to it.
Anniversary Skins and the Starlight Pass
The anniversary events, running since September 4, hand out free cosmetics including Nana "Stardust Dreamer" (exchanged for 600 anniversary Celebration Coins) and Chou "Starforger's Glory", with Layla's Collector skin "Prismatic Rhythm" scheduled later in the event.
September's Starlight skin is Hanzo "Fangs of Slaughter", his first Starlight skin. The standard Starlight Member pass costs 300 Diamonds (~$4.99) and the premium Starlight Plus tier 750 Diamonds (~$12). Both reset monthly, on their own cycle rather than with the ranked season.
Before Starward Decade Ends: What to Finish
Most of what Season 42 offers is tied to ranked play, and the reset erases it at once. Worth clearing before the maintenance window:
The Season 42 skin
Popol and Kupa "Flamehide Thane" is this season's free ranked skin, earned by completing the required number of ranked matches (reported as 20), along with the Starward Decade avatar border. A blue painted variant of the skin is also available. Matches played after the reset count toward the next season, not this one.
End-of-season rank rewards
Rewards are paid out based on the highest rank you reached during Season 42, not where you finish. Every rank earns Battle Points and tickets, and Mythic players receive a 30-day Mythic emote, so a late push to a new tier still pays even if you drop afterward.
Anniversary coins and events
The 10th Anniversary events have their own deadlines. Spend Celebration Coins on the skin exchange while it is open rather than holding them.
Starlight
Because Starlight runs monthly, the September pass closes at the end of the month regardless of the ranked calendar. Claim its tiers before then.
What Comes Next After Starward Decade
Moonton has not announced Season 43: no name, theme or start date. It normally confirms the transition only a few days out, through an in-game notice and its official social channels, which is why the date on this page stays an estimate until then.
The strongest lead on content is Dori, a mid-lane mage built around area damage, crowd control and mobility, who was added to the Advanced Server on August 27, 2026. Community sites report she was held back from Season 42 for the anniversary and expect her in Season 43, but Moonton has not confirmed her release date.
