New Bloom Festival 2025

The chaos of spring has arrived. As snows melt and flowers begin to bloom, the battlefield is bathed in color and life. Lanterns now lead heroes through the forest trails, guiding them beneath the shadow of their dragon towers on their way to fight the war for supremacy. With every hard-earned victory or bitter defeat, fireworks stand ready to celebrate the end of battle.
