As the Lunar New Year approaches, the excitement is palpable, especially in the East where celebrations are in full swing. Yostar, the developers behind the popular puzzle game Mahjong Soul, are joining the festivities with a major new event that's set to captivate players until February 13th.
What's in store for fans? The event introduces two new characters, sisters Hua Yubai and Hua Yuqing, who are deeply entwined with the upcoming Year of the Snake. These characters are not just additions to the game; they bring their own drama and intrigue to the Floating Dreams Theater, enhancing the game's narrative.
Given the cultural significance of the Lunar New Year, often referred to as Chinese New Year, it's no surprise that Yostar is eager to celebrate with an update. Mahjong, a beloved game with roots in Chinese culture, is the perfect backdrop for such a celebration.
But the excitement doesn't stop there! Players can also look forward to four new limited-time outfits in the Echo of Rejoicing series, tailored for the Lunar New Year. Kana Fujita and Zechsd will dazzle in their animated outfits, while Chiori Mikami and Sara sport new looks. Additionally, the Day of Celebration series makes a comeback, and players can try their luck at obtaining new Bamboo-themed decorations through the gacha pool.
For those unfamiliar with mahjong, it's a classic game enjoyed worldwide, with a notable craze in America during the early 20th century. Even if you're new to the game, Mahjong Soul offers a fun and engaging way to learn and play.
