The update coming to "Clash Royale" this month is about to make some drastic changes for the game, which are, reportedly, developer Supercell's efforts to bring it to popularity again.

It is rumored that the company is struggling to keep players interested, and this September update will possibly be massive enough to change a lot of aspects of the game for the better.

Rumor has it that the "Clash Royale" September update will drop the Tournament rate on the game from $5 to $1 so that more players can join the fun.

It is believed that Gems will reportedly be allowed to use as payment for these Tournaments as well so that users of the app can spend longer time playing "Clash Royale."

Another big change coming to the game via the September update is the purported Healing Cards, which are originally made for Supercell's other blockbuster game "Clash of Clans."

Healers are those who give health points or HP to players in "Clash of Clans." They are usually at the back of the troops where they heal tanks.

The Healers will allegedly be added through the "Clash Royale" September update, but in a whole new way as they will be more involved in the battle.

Another change to be implemented in the game is the balance of the characters. The Giants and Wizards will reportedly be nerfed by 5 percent, while the damage of the Giant Skeletons will be buffed to 5 percent

As to when the update for "Clash Royale" will actually drop, a rumor suggests that it will be next week, Sept. 20. Supercell will allegedly make the announcement a few days before that.

There's no information that will corroborate that yet, but The BitBag says that the update cannot be delayed as it is sought after and demanded by fans.

Supercell had already set the stage for the "Clash Royale" September update with several tweaks it made on the game, which is why players suspect that it will be released within a week's time.
