Claim the Horse Lunar Lantern to light Lunar Lantern Candles and join the celebration to earn double or triple loot anywhere in the Kingdom!

How to Celebrate

Stockpile Locations

Travel to any one of these stockpile locations. You can refer to the Lunar New Year Heads-Up Display to view this list along with a travel button to take you directly to a specific location. This year, Conclusion Cliffs is a new addition to the stockpile locations!

Gather Dumpling Cheese

At stockpile locations, you can gather Dumpling Cheese by hunting as you normally would. The mice in stockpile locations have a chance to drop Dumpling Cheese.

Gather Lantern Candles from Lunar Event Mice

With the Horse Lantern claimed, you can begin lighting candles and reaping rewards!


When your lantern is lit with Lunar Lantern Candles, you will find DOUBLE loot from mice anywhere in the Kingdom! If you're lighting Red Lunar Lantern Candles you'll find TRIPLE loot!


The amazing power of the lantern and candles doesn't end there. While you hunt with your lantern lit, it will rise into the air in search of more rewards. Each hunt with a Lunar Lantern Candle lit will raise your lantern by one foot and each hunt with a Red Lunar Lantern Candle lit will raise it by two feet!


Every ten feet that your lantern ascends, you'll receive a +1 Luck bonus to your trap that will apply whenever candles are burning. The bonus is cumulative, so the higher you go, the more luck you'll get!


Every thirty feet that your lantern ascends, you'll receive an extra reward in addition to the +1 Luck! Be sure to check out the heads-up display to get a glimpse of all the valuable items that await you along the reward track including a new trap skin, Year of the Horse Journal Theme, and Red Lunar Lantern Candles.
