The entire "Clash of Clans" community has been wondering when the May update will arrive. Unfortunately, until now, its arrival remains uncertain. In fact, many have already doubted its existence. Nevertheless, there are still reasons to be excited about it.

In an official forum post, the developers of "Clash of Clans" iterated that the highly anticipated update is not coming before May 11. This is contrary to what everyone has been expecting. Nonetheless, it is a confirmed announcement, so players will really have to wait a few more days or weeks.

iDigitalTimes reports that unlike the previous updates, the one for May will not be unveiled via video sneak peeks. Regardless, it is still a mystery if Supercell really plans to release the update this month. Interestingly, there are those who say that just because it is not arriving before May 11, it does not mean it will not go live the day after and so on.

Nothing specific has been revealed about the aforementioned "Clash of Clans" update, except for the fact that it is being advertised as a huge one. Based on the new trailer, it is safe to assume that all rumors about the Shipwreck feature are true. The boat in the video could be a nod to the said feature.

For players who are expecting Town Hall advancements or levels, they better not because Supercell has already confirmed that such changes will not be happening this month. In fact, the community should not even expect new troops or heroes to arrive. If this is the case, then the update could possibly be more about the Shipwreck feature.

When the update arrives, enthusiasts deem it as the most substantial update in the history of "Clash of Clans." It is worth noting that, if the rumors are true, this will be the very first time players will be able to test a brand-new feature this year.
