With Supercell already announcing Town Hall 13 for Clash of Clans, when exactly can we expect the December 2019 update to arrive?
By now, you’ve probably heard that Town Hall 13 is coming to Clash of Clans. Officially confirmed by Supercell earlier this month, the long-awaited new Town Hall is set to arrive next month as part of a “massive” game update.
Unfortunately, Supercell has not announced a release date for the update, other than sometime in December. So with just a few weeks to go until we turn the calendar page, I decided to look back at previous years’ winter updates to see if I could gauge when exactly this year’s update will arrive.
The results were a mixed bag with no clear pattern, unfortunately.
I went all the way back to the December 2015 update, which introduced Town Hall 11. This update, which was one of the biggest ones ever at the time, was released on December 10. This was the second Thursday of the month.
In 2016, the winter update arrived on December 16, which was the third Friday of the month. The 2017 winter update came on December 15, which was also the third Friday of the month.
But last year’s update threw off any semblance of a pattern, releasing on December 10, the second Monday of the month.
While there’s no recognizable pattern what we can take away from this is that the December 2019 update will probably arrive sometime during the second or third week of the month. This would place the update someplace within the dates of Monday, December 9 and Friday, December 20.
If I was a gambling man, I’d bet the update drops sometime during the second week, between December 9 and December 13. If you recall, the Town Hall 13 trailer did seem to reference a December 13th date.
Of course, there’s more that goes into releasing an update that previous release cycles.
In introducing a new Town Hall level, there will almost certainly be new troop levels, building and defense levels and even new units (and a new hero). There’s a lot of balancing that must be done, not to mention ensuring there are no game-breaking bugs.
Basically, there’s a lot for Supercell to work out for this update. The best way to tell when the update is near is to be on the lookout for Supercell’s sneak peeks, which typically arrive a week or two before the update.
Wait for the update, Until then, You can Clash On!
