Players hoping to get back into Project R.I.S.E in the coming months will have to wait a little longer. A Supercell employee confirmed on the game’s official Discord that the title will not be publicly playable again before 2027 at the earliest, as the studio is still working out the next steps for the project.
Supercell rules out a Project R.I.S.E return in 2026
The possibility of playing Project R.I.S.E again this year has now been directly ruled out by Supercell. The clarification came on the game’s official Discord after a player enthusiastically mentioned September 19.
A Supercell employee quickly corrected that expectation. According to the message, nothing is planned for September 19 and the team is still discussing and planning the next steps for the project.
That statement effectively rules out another public phase for Project R.I.S.E during the final months of 2026.

Project R.I.S.E could return in 2027 at the earliest
Supercell’s message provides the clearest indication yet of the project’s timeline. The studio representative explained that Project R.I.S.E will not be publicly playable again until next year at the earliest.
“Whaaaat? Ain’t nothing happening on the 19th. We’re still discussing next steps and planning. Game won’t be publicly playable again until next year at the earliest.”
With that wording, 2027 now becomes the earliest possible window for the game to return publicly. However, the phrase “at the earliest” remains important, as it does not turn 2027 into a firm release date.

September 19 will not mark a new public phase
Supercell’s response also puts an end to the speculation surrounding September 19. The date, mentioned by a member of the community on Discord, does not correspond to any new public access period announced by the studio.
The team is still in a discussion and planning phase regarding the next steps for Project R.I.S.E.
For players waiting for another chance to try the game on iOS and Android, there will be no public return in 2026. The next possible opportunity is in 2027, with no guarantee that it will happen early in the year.
