Princess Miko Summons You

Save Yokai's New Year Celebration from Corruption!

Akiba's New Year celebration is ready to begin once more! It's the Year of the Horse, and that means Akiba falls under the protection of Senlin-Ma, Kirin Guardian Spirit of Yokai. Before the /party can begin, though, you will need to cleanse the island of the twisted taint spreading through its forests and towns.* Unsheathe your blades this Friday and log in to discover the identity of the dread oni infecting Yokai Isle!

Princess Miko and the Kirin need your help!

Year of the Horse Exclusive Gear!

For the Yokai people, the horse stands for energy, warmth, and intelligence; those are all traits a true Hero personifies! Heroes born in the Year of the Horse are standout members of their community, clever, and adventurous. 

Nulgath's Huangdi Warrior set

But even if you were not born during the Year of the Horse, you can still celebrate like you were! We've got Nulgath's Huangdi Warrior set, Zoshi's Kirin's Avatar set, all the returning seasonal rare gear, and more. Check out the Design Notes later this week for more previews!

Also coming this week:

• Friday: Roroth's Birthday Shop
• Friday: Limited Time Wheel of Doom gear: Yokai SunLord/Lady
  (drops from the Wheels AND will be in the merge shops)
• Sunday: join us for the Superbowl half-time celebration between the Seahorcs and the Broncoliches!

* Make sure you are up to date on the Akiba storyline before beginning the Kirin's quests!
