The Lunar New Year Event Has Ended

23 February 2021

Thank you for celebrating the Year of the Ox!

All Good Things...

The Lunar New Year event has come to an end but the Year of the Ox rages on!

You are no longer able to light your lunar lantern candles or make any more progress on the reward track.

However, for one more week, you will still be able to claim any unclaimed track rewards and spend any unused candles on the Lunar New Year specific items in the shops of stockpile locations.

Any candles that you have not lit and choose not to spend will remain in your inventory along with any unused Dumpling Cheese and Nian Gao'da Cheese.

Still Working on an Event Map?

You still have the rest of this week to find those last few event mice to complete your map and earn its full rewards. Just head to any of the stockpile locations and arm your Dumpling Cheese or Nian Gao'da Cheese to attract the regular pool of Lunar New Year event mice.
