AI-generated analysis. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
- Clash of Clans and WWE reunite for their second collaboration with six WWE Superstars reimagined as Clash of Clans characters, and a worldwide hunt for Cena's in-game village.
- Rhodes and Cena are long-time players of Clash of Clans — now Rhodes has enlisted WWE Superstars, including The Undertaker and IYO SKY, and the game's millions of daily players to join the search.
- Starting today, players can join the hunt to raid Cena's village and unlock exclusive rewards.
Beginning today, September 1st, through September 30th, Cena's loot-filled base is waiting for Clash of Clans players to discover throughout the course of their daily raids. The more players raid, the higher the chance they have of locating the elusive WWE Legend and earning a one-time-only Cody Rhodes statue for their village – but only if their raid is a success. It's not like a 17-time WWE World Champion is going to have a rookie base.
Meanwhile, to beef up the search party, Rhodes has enlisted the support of The Undertaker, IYO SKY and a whole host of other WWE Superstars who will be rallying their own fans online to join the hunt.
"People think this started in the ring with Cody. It didn't. It started when I out-raided him in the game and he threw me off his team," says Cena. "Ten years later he still needs help. This time he's asking millions of you to take on my base. That's fine. As I have always said - if you want some, come get some."
Beyond Cena's base, the in-game crossover presents six WWE Superstars reimagined as iconic Clash of Clans Hero characters, including the return of Cody Rhodes as The Barbarian King. The lineup include:
- Cody Rhodes as "Barbarian King"
- Alexa Bliss as "Archer Queen"
- The Undertaker as "Grand Warden"
- IYO SKY as "Royal Champion"
- Jey Uso as "Minion Prince"
- Kane as "Dragon Duke"
Players can also experience WWE-themed features throughout the event, from temporary troops to a branded village theme that's designed around WWE Money in the Bank, taking place in
Download Clash of Clans for iOS or Google Play today to help Rhodes in his Search for Cena until September 30th.
*Clash of Clans has been downloaded over 2 billion times and was recently voted "Greatest Mobile Game of All Time" by followers of Pubity.
**Players who already own the Cody Rhodes Skin will instead receive a random Gold Pass skin, then random Equipment, or a Book of Everything if they've collected them all
