To commemorate five amazing years, the MMO strategy game will be hosting the Treasure Island Adventure event from September 19–October 16, offering a variety of themed activities:
Pirate Super Lotto - Throughout the event, players have the chance to obtain Lucky Orbs, each containing a unique Lucky Number. When the Lucky Draw begins, random Lucky Numbers and winners will be drawn for varying prize levels, culminating in the draw of a single Lucky Star Jackpot winner in the final round at the end of the event.
Treasure Hunt Competition - Players can obtain Lost Treasures by participating in the Treasure Hunt event or by purchasing packs. Lost Treasures can then be submitted to the event page to increase one’s event level and overall points, earning valuable stage rewards.
Surprise Crab Chest - With all the crabs on Treasure Island shaped like treasure chests, players can try their best to catch a Crab Chest for a chance to score awesome rewards.
During the anniversary celebration, players can look back on five years of their Guns of Glory experiences by viewing and sharing their in-game achievements to the Memories page. Players also have the option to post their glorious achievements directly to their social media and can also receive special rewards for posting a Guns of Glory-themed photo.
The Guns of Glory anniversary celebrations also welcome a new event to the game, the Twilight League Championship Tournament. The Twilight League is based on, and expands upon the popular Darklands event, with a greater ferocity of competition and even more exceptional rewards up for grabs.
Beginning with the Qualifier Stage, the Twilight League will bring together the most powerful player Alliances within each battle region for a massive 256 team competition. With Alliances split into 32 Battle Zones, 3 rounds of Group Match play will send the top teams of each zone to the Knockout Matches, where the Battle Zone victors will be determined. The winners of each Battle Zone will advance to the Championship Stage, where 3 rounds of Group Matches will send the 16 best Alliances into the Knockout Match bracket. The victorious Alliance that achieved success throughout the bracket stage will have the honor of being crowned Champion over thousands of the best Guns of Glory players in the world. The Twilight League trailer is available here.
