Brawl Stars Mega Pig event matchmaking issue: Official update and next release date explored

Brawl Stars developer Supercell disabled the July 2024 Brawl Stars Mega Pig event (which arrived on July 19, 2024) soon after its launch due to matchmaking issues. While the community expected a quick fix for this issue, the developer announced it was not possible. Therefore, they pulled up a classic challenge on the weekend to compensate for disabling the Mega Pig event.

As gamers waited for the Brawl Stars Mega Pig event to reappear this month, the developer updated the community regarding the fix for the matchmaking issue. An official X post from the title's X page stated that the developer is planning to combine the Mega Pig events for August and September 2024.

This article discusses the official release date for the Brawl Stars Mega Pig event, along with several other details.

When will the Brawl Stars Mega Pig event launch?

On August 13, 2024, the developers announced on the title's official X page that the Brawl Stars Mega Pig event will return on August 30, 2024.

They said that the matchmaking issue that was affecting players' gameplay experience during the event will be fixed with the new update. This will make August 30, 2024, the ideal date for the event's release.

Will there be a Mega Pig event in September 2024?

Since the developer announced the second last day of August 2024 to be the release date for the event, the question arises: "Will there be a Brawl Stars Mega Pig event in September 2024?"

As mentioned in the announcement post on August 13, 2024, the event will not arrive in September 2024. This is because, since it will be arriving in late August, the developer has decided to merge this month's Mega Pig events and September 2024 into one Mega Mega Pig event. Thus, players will be able to get both events' rewards for the effort of one.

The developer has also said that the announcement will make more sense once Brawl Talk arrives on August 24, 2024.

What could feature in the upcoming Brawl Stars update?

The last few seconds of the Brawl Stars Paint Brawl season's official trailer captured the attention of the community. Players have been fixating on the final few seconds when the camera enters deep into the water.

In one of these final few frames, players observed the anchor of a ship and some familiar flower-like patterns. This resembled the scenery of the famous "Bikini Bottom," where the popular yellow sponge lives with his friends.

This led many to believe that a Spongebob x Brawl Stars collaboration could arrive in the forthcoming update.
