The developers of Diablo 4 are excited to share information about the upcoming Lunar Awakening event, designed to celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year. Join in on this time-limited event as they divulge all the exciting details.
Blizzard has revealed the details of Diablo 4’s Lunar Awakening event. The time-limited Diablo 4 event will commemorate the Chinese Lunar New Year, and allow players to use Lunar Shrines to gain special rewards.
Diablo 4’s Season of the Construct recently started on January 23. Instead of pitting players against vampires like the previous Season of Blood, Diablo 4’s third season has them fighting against the demon Malphas. Among its new content, the season comes with exclusive items, special dungeons called Vaults, and a robot companion called Seneschal. The season barely started, but Blizzard also announced its first time-limited event.
The Lunar Awakening event will happen between February 6 and 20 and can be accessed by both Seasonal and Eternal characters. During this time, Diablo 4 players can find special Lunar Shrines in both dungeons and the outside world, which will be infused with the magic of the Ancients. These shrines will give players a 50% boost in XP and 30% in speed, as well as other unique bonuses in some cases, such as special attacks or damage reflection. Essentially, these shrines will be useful to speed up progression in Diablo 4, and gamers may collect Ancestor’s Favor while using them, which can later be traded for exclusive cosmetics.
How Will Diablo 4's Lunar Awakening Event Work?
To gain the rewards of the time-limited event, players should travel to Ked Bardu in the Dry Steppes map. There, they can meet Ying-Yue, the leader of the Lunar Night Market, who will exchange the Ancestor’s Favor collected by the player for prizes that can only be acquired during the event.
