New World welcomes the Year of the Dragon

The Chinese New Year is coming, which means that more and more developers will organize holidays and festivals in online games. Amazon Games is not left out, inviting users of its MMORPG New World to taste oriental dishes, get bonuses in exchange for offerings, watch fireworks and dress up heroes in traditional lats of ancient China. We tell you about these and other activities in more detail.

The first thing to do is to eat. For this purpose, a real banquet will be organized in the fairytale world. Participants of the feast should collect red meat from the tables in the Ebonscale Reach location, and then take it to the hearth, where soup with vegetables is already boiling in a wok (a deep Chinese pan, something like our cauldron). Once the food is cooked, everyone can take a portion to get event tokens for themselves and their faction, and at the same time activate increases to strength, agility, build, and intelligence. Each meal has a recovery time of one day. The food will also make a great offering on the altar to receive a blessing with a bag of gifts in addition. The monster will try to steal it, so you'll have to fight it.

If you defeat the boss, you will receive one of five pieces of colorful oriental armor and 675 points of equipment. The New Year's Armor set includes a helmet, cuirass, gauntlets, pants and greaves. At the Fortune's Crossing location, everyone will be able to watch the fireworks and take part in the festival. Each gamer is entitled to three bags with gifts for the day, but to get them you need to be active. Inside lie gems, dyes, dark matter, silk, good luck coins and talismans. The event will run from February 7 to February 20.
