2022 Holiday Gifts + Rewards

Log in to get your Honorable Hero Prize

As a way of saying "thanks!" to the heroes who did not get muted or banned in 2022 (an even greater feat than in normal years!). In this year of unprecendented challenges, you kept your cool, followed the rules without fail, and emerged from the fires still standing strong. As an incentive for everyone to keep following the rules in 2022, we are awarding players who helped keep AdventureQuest Worlds a positive, fun, and family-friendly game!

What's an honorable hero, you ask? Good question! They are what true in-game heroes and role models are, and we want to reward them for a year's worth of good behavior... with 500 FREE AdventureCoins and a character page badge!

Starting January 5th, 2023, if your hero account met the following requirements:

Did not receive a 24 hour or longer in-game mute or ban in 2022
Not currently disabled
Logged in between January 1st, 2022 and December 31st, 2022
Level 11 or higher, before December 31st, 2022
Created your account before January 1st, 2023

You've already been awarded your 500 AdventureCoins. Your character page badge is available now!

When will the Frostval AC Gifting Event Rewards arrive?

I have a bit of design work left to do on my end, but the artists have really done a fantastic job getting the rewards together. I'm currently expecting those to go out next week (that is the goal!), but will keep you all posted with updates should anything change.

Server Update: Moving AFK Players

Good news: surprise server update going out tonight! Captain Rhubarb (lead server coder) added Eht's (co-lead of balance + class design) latest request in. Based on the many player requests we've gotten over the last year: players who AFK in ultra boss rooms will be moved to a private instance of /battleon.

Tonight: unlock our 2022 Holiday AC Gift!

The holidays are a time for joy, celebrating with your family and friends, and yes... getting presents! Starting tonight, eligible heroes can log in and complete Valencia's quest in Battleon to get 500 free AdventureCoins*, as our way of celebrating and saying "thanks!" for battling alongside us this year through all our 2022 story and holiday events.
