What’s New at Summer Festival 2025?

Extended Duration: The event now runs for eight days instead of seven. Some quest content has also been adjusted.
New Items: Honey Energy, Honey Nesting Dolls, and Honey Caskets are new additions. These are completely different from similarly named items in previous years.
Summer Festival Coins:
– Now appear on the Mystery Island map
– Have been updated — old coins cannot be used in this year’s shop.
– New coins are time-limited and will automatically convert into loot boxes after the event ends.
New Skins: Solar Skins are now available for Amira and Phobos. The Phobos skin provides important stats. While not essential, additional Armor would still be beneficial for Amira.
Cosmetics Update: Additional new skins and avatar frames have been added. Some older items may also appear in the new loot boxes.
Beekeeping Farm: A new feature that unlocks on Day 2 of the event.

The drop rates and amounts of festival coins have also been adjusted. Please note that shop skins are overpriced during this event, so it’s best to avoid purchasing them.

Mystery Island Updates

The five squares on the island can now only be unlocked using Summer Festival Coins and can be opened repeatedly.
Explorer’s Moves cannot be used on these coin-based squares, but remain usable on other parts of the island.

Hives

Changed mini-game specifications and bugs

Bugs

In Mini-Game 3, clicking the blue flower in the left field of Campaign Chapter 1 and then refreshing your browser will cause the blue flower in the upper-right area of Chapter 5 (‘Drowner’s Bridge,’ near Astalos) to disappear, rendering the mini-game unplayable.

Bug with Old Summer Festival Coins

The 2025 Summer Festival introduced a new coin and shop system, breaking continuity with previous years. As a result, players holding Summer Festival Coins from 2024 or earlier are currently unable to use them.
The developers have acknowledged this as a bug and confirmed that a fix is planned.
The issue will likely be resolved after the current event concludes. Since this year’s event operates under a new system, the delay is not expected to cause major issues.
There is a possibility that these older coins may become usable in a future Summer Festival, but expectations for this remain low at this time.

Official Message

Hey everyone, just to give you an update on Old Summer Festival Coins. We are aware of the issue and working on a fix. We will do our best to restore their functionality asap, but there is a chance we will be able to do that safely only after current Festival ends.
In any case, rest assured that soon enough you will be able to use your Old Summer Festival Coins for bying stuff from Old Summer Festival Shop (but not from the current one), just like you used to!
