A bold new celebration rolls into the Kilima Valley Fairgrounds today with the launch of Palia’s Winter’s Wonder: Riffrocin’ New Year update. This festive chapter in the Winter’s Wonder series invites players to gather beneath lantern-lit skies, celebrate the Luna New Year, and welcome the Year of the Riffroc with new events, rewards, and ways to express a more laidback Palian style. From a skater-inspired Lunar Path to a brand-new Ranching companion and a ‘soup-er’ cute community cooking showdown, the Riffrocin’ New Year update brings energy, creativity, and togetherness to Palia’s coziest season yet.
Building on Palia’s winter seasonal updates, Riffrocin’ New Year leans into celebration and community, offering players a fresh perspective on togetherness and community when we need it most. With returning Luna New Year festivities, expressive new customization options, and playful new activities, this update blends tradition with the nouvelle. Highlights from the update include:
- Luna New Year Returns – The Kilima Village Fairgrounds light up once more as Luna New Year festivities return to Palia. Players can revisit familiar traditions like the Hot Pot game, hunt for Maji Treasure Chests in new locations, and earn refreshed Stamp Card rewards while celebrating the Year of the Riffroc.
- Luna New Year Decor, Tints, and Nameplates – Bring the celebration home with new Luna New Year Decor, including Soji screens, baskets, seasonal trinkets, and a charming Riffroc Plush. Players can also unlock new Celebration and Riffroc Tints, along with a Year of the Riffroc Nameplate, to show off their festive spirit.
- Path of the Shred – Drop-in with a brand-new Lunar Path packed with skater flair. The Path of the Shred offers up to 14 levels of free and Premium rewards, featuring street-ready rewards, all earnable with no expiration and full flexibility to progress at your own pace.
- Reth’s Soup-erb Bowl – Players can celebrate the Big Game by grabbing ladles and cooking together in a new limited-time community event! From February 6 through February 18, Palians will team up to prepare soup (and soup-adjacent dishes!) to hit shared milestone goals and unlock tiered community rewards.
- Rock the New Roli – A new Ranching companion rolls onto the scene! The armored Roli produces salt and occasionally valuable Pink Salt, adding a flavorful new helper to Ranching life.
- Premium Store Updates – Celebrate in style with new Premium offerings, including the refined Elite Equestrian outfit, rugged Mountaineer collection, 90’s-inspired Gardener collection, Year of the Riffroc Tool Skins and Glider, and the adorable aforementioned Roli Pet.
