In this episode:
Clash Royale is back — and stronger than ever. 📈
After years of decline, Supercell’s strategy has completely turned the game around. In this episode of Buona La Prima, we break down the April economy overhaul that doubled revenue, boosted downloads, and pushed Clash Royale into the Top 5 mobile games worldwide by MAU.
We’ll explore:
-How removing chest queues and timers reshaped progression.
-Why Supercell closed the season shop and moved rewards into events.
-The impact of locking the first 6-elixir Champion behind a $12.99 Diamond Pass.
-What this means for Supercell’s broader portfolio and identity as a company.
Is this the start of a new golden age for Clash Royale, or the moment Supercell finally abandoned its “different from the rest” philosophy?
