NCSOFT Celebrates 18 Years of Lineage II With A Boat Load of Events

Starting today and running until May 18, NCSOFT will be celebrating 18 years of Lineage II, featuring 26 events filled with unique items and effects players can grab. And it turns out that Lineage II: Aden and Classic will be joining the anniversary fun! April 28 marks the 18-year legacy that Lineage II has upheld, standing as the cornerstone MMORPG franchise under NCSOFT.

To mark the occasion, NCSOFT wants to shower players with in-game events, and boy, there are so many of them! However, not all 26 events are stuffed into Lineage II. Each version is getting its handful of events, which will help spread the love for fans who might be selective on which version they love best. For those interested in the main Lineage II, events such as the Dancing Cat Event will buff your party if you talk to cats, while the Frederick the Destroyer Raid Event features a timed 60 minutes boss encounter that rewards players will special items and cake.

The Aden version has an Appreciation Event which gives players the 18th-anniversary buff when they visit a Mystic Cake in any village and a Black Coupon Event that grants coupons used to restore failed enchant items. Classic mimics the Aden version in most of its events but brings the Festival Event that lets players exchange tickets for the Adventurer's Guild when completing a mission.
