Supercell continues to update its newest PvP game, "Clash Royale." Speculations suggest that an update that will rebalance units may be released soon, given that some units seem to have more power than others.

According to EnStarz, developer Supercell has already confirmed that a major update is coming out soon for "Clash Royale," with the update tweaking and improving the title's gameplay. The industry follower believes that while the studio has not detailed the update, one of the major patches for the upcoming tweak is a rebalancing for some of the units and characters in the game.

Reportedly, a recent leak on the planned August major update seems to support the idea. According to the supposed leak, major changes and toned-down improvements are expected for some characters, particularly to the Mini P.E.K.K.A unit. To date, players who use the unit may do so a number of times than most characters, since the unit seems to appear frequently during gameplay. In addition, the Mini P.E.K.K.A is also said to be nerfed in its attack and speed stats.

Aside from Mini P.E.K.K.A., other units that will reportedly get a toned-down version include Miners, reducing their damages dealt by at least 3 percent. Meanwhile, other units are expected to be tweaked and improved, like the Bowlers, reportedly getting a 3 percent increase in damages.

In addition to stats and character tweaks, gameplay changes are also expected. Supposedly, the major update will also make Legendary cards appear more frequently on deck, and players will be able to obtain the rare cards more easily.

Supercell will need to check fan feedback and appropriate needed changes to "Clash Royale" in order to maintain its lead as one of the more popular mobile games to date. Reportedly, the game has been overtaken by the new AR title "Pokémon GO." According to recent reports, the game has beaten both "Clash Royale" and "Candy Crush Soda Saga" for the top spot, earning over $160 million in revenue since its release last month.
