A new update is coming to New World this week, and it will see the addition of a mini-event called Rabbit’s Revenge. Over the next two weeks, players can expect to see corrupted rabbits throughout Aeternum. Players will receive special rewards for hunting these rabbits, and they can also expect to see some new bug fixes as a result of today’s update. However, first players will have to deal with a little downtime; New World maintenance is set to begin today at 11 p.m. PT, and will last for approximately 2.5 hours. Full patch notes from the game’s official website can be found below:
Corruption has possessed rabbits all over Aeternum. For a planned duration of 2 weeks, players can hunt them down for special rewards such as:
- Defiled Rabbit’s Foot, an enchanted consumable that grants players extra luck for 40 minutes when used. The strength of its effect scales with player level, and players can collect up to 5 per day.
- Diamond Gypsum, which can be used to increase expertise for a type of gear of the player’s choosing. Players can collect up to 3 per day.
- Defiled Storage Chest of the Hare, an incredible rare drop which provides superior storage capacity and an intriguing Corruption visual effect for the player’s home. Limit 1 per player.
