A new feature called Clan Games is coming to Clash Of Clans in its December update. A Twitter tease alerted us to the news on Wednesday, but a new Supercell blog post offers a more detailed sneak peek.
In short, the post suggests Clan Games offers specific clan-centric challenges for treasure rewards. This means having to work together with clanmates for multiplayer raids at the Home Village, in Versus Battles and the Builder Base too. The basic philosophy of Clan Games seems to be that, for a game like Clash Of Clans with so many different community segments these challenges should encourage audience members to experience everything the game has to offer.
Limited challenges with unique rules play a key role in games like Clash Royale, and Supercell flirted with the idea since Clash Of Clans first introduced events based on boost or limited troops. The post comically compares Clan Games to three-legged races, egg and spoon races and sack races, so it would appear they’ll offer new ways to experience existing content. In other words, it looks like Clan Chests will soon be coming to Clash Of Clans.
In true Supercell fashion, however, that’s not the only thing the developer has teased. A strange blue caravan is pictured below, but we’re not quite sure how it’s being used. There are also hints of “mysterious magic items” to be revealed soon as well. This December update may not be the full Town Hall 12 treatment fans have been asking for, but it seems like there will be lots of content to enjoy regardless.
This is just the start of sneak peek season, of course, so we’ll do our best to keep you posted as new developments arrive. We imagine a release date is coming soon, and there might even be some special Clashmas gifts in store to liven up the party next week. Clan Games aren’t a massive game-changer in terms of gameplay or concept, but they could become an integral part of keeping clan resources in check.
Clash Of Clans is available now on Android and iOS.
