It is only around this time that daring Explorers may summon the Bull Demon King and battle him in a test of skill and bravery! Great rewards and great fortune await those powerful enough to defeat him!

The Lantern Dragon has made its way here for the Lunar New Year festivities as well! Players can obtain one by defeating the Bull Demon King, or build their very own by collecting pieces of the Dragon Lantern! Lantern Dragons come in many sizes - see if you and your friends can build a 5-seat Lantern Dragon for the ultimate ride! As a symbol of people’s aspirations for a better life in the new year, the Lantern Dragon and its pieces are also valuable against the nefarious Bull Demon King!

What’s a celebration without glitz and glamor? A new Chainmail Set, Lance weapon, 8 additional structure colors are now available for all your Lunar New Year cosmetic needs! Returning are also some of last year’s Lunar New Year events! Don’t miss out on the Lunar New Year dishes - eat up for a full stomach and a variety of buffs!

Happy Lunar Year from the PixARK Team!

Full Patch Notes and details on the Lunar New Year festivities are below:


In mythology, the Bull Demon King is so powerful that he is said to be able to travel between heaven and hell, move mountains, and calm storming seas. Even the Adepti cannot do anything about him. In the Pixark world, he is the King of Minotaurs, with strength exceeding far more than its kind. The Bull Demon King’s only weakness seems to be special creatures such as the resilient Dragon Lanterns. Damage dealt by the Bull Demon King to the Dragon Lantern’s Head/Body/Tail, and players carrying a Dragon Lantern Head/Body/Tail is significantly reduced.

• The Bull Demon King is powerful, brave Explorers can take on the challenge by performing the traditional Chinese "Dragon Lantern Dance"

• War Stomp: Stomping initiates a shockwave that lowers the melee attack of all enemies nearby. (Dragon Lantern Head/Body/Tail and players carrying a Dragon Lantern Head/Body/Tail will not be affected by the debuff)
  
• Boshosen: Blows enemies and knocks them back. Also increases the debuff effects of Whirlwind and War Stomp
