Supercell says the Gem cost of maxing a piece of Epic Equipment comes down by roughly half.
The Trader has used the new prices since July; the Medal shop follows in October’s Medal Event, and the next full update makes them standard everywhere in the game.
More changes to the Ore economy are promised later in October.
What it means for account value
Maxed Hero Equipment becomes cheaper to reach, so it may become more common on high Town Hall accounts. Town Hall level and hero progress remain the main value drivers in our research.

Published:
Supercell announced the Clash-O-Ween season “Cosmic Curse: Portal Panic” on October 1, 2026; it runs through October 31.
What’s new

Hero Skins arriving during the month: Savage King (October 5), Nasty Prince (October 7), Terror Champion (October 9), Behemoth Duke (October 11) and Spider Warden (October 13); the Cosmic Portals XL Scenery from October 3.
A temporary troop, Totem Thrower, joins for the season, and cosmetics from the 2025 Cosmic Curse return on October 15.

Clash of Clans × WWE: one-time hero skins that “will not return” after October 1
Published:
Supercell announced the WWE: Search for Cena event for Clash of Clans on September 1, 2026; it ran through September.
What’s new
Hero skins at $9.99 each: Cody Rhodes (Barbarian King), Alexa Bliss (Archer Queen), Iyo Sky (Royal Champion), Kane (Dragon Duke) and American Badass Undertaker (Grand Warden).
Jey Uso (Minion Prince) came with the Gold Pass.
Supercell says the skins “will not return. Ever” after October 1.
Money in the Bank XL scenery was available from September 2 to 30, alongside a John Cena challenge and temporary WWE troops.
What it means for account value
Skins the publisher says will never return are exactly the kind of cosmetics that make a Clash of Clans account rarer. Town Hall and hero levels still carry most of the value.

Clash of Clans August update: Diggy levels 11–15 and the Gold Pass from Town Hall 3
Published:
Supercell released the Clash of Clans August update on August 30, 2026.
What’s new
Town Hall 18: the Diggy pet gets levels 11–15; the Builder’s Hut and the Monolith get new supercharge levels.
The Starter Pass is retired: Season Challenges and the Gold Pass are now available from Town Hall 3, with rewards scaled by Town Hall level.
Ruin Knight no longer loses health over time; Ruin Witch summons 10 Ruin Knights instead of 8.
Clan War League modifiers in the Titan leagues were adjusted.
What it means for account value
Town Hall level and hero and pet levels drive Clash of Clans account value in our research. New maximum levels at Town Hall 18 mean a “maxed” account now needs more upgrades than before the update.
