You are cordially invited to RAID: Shadow Legends’ 5th Anniversary!

March 7th is when the Festival of Creation fun kicks off, with the party wrapping up on April 4th. During the course of the RAID: Shadow Legends 5th anniversary, the in-game Bastion will be transformed into a bustling carnival, complete with festival tents, a new background music track, and Champions enjoying all the fun of the fair.

A special RAID: Shadow Legends 5th anniversary gift also awaits. Players just need to open the game every day between March 7th and March 12th to pick up amazing prizes like Shards, Silver, and a Legendary Skill Tome. If you are a new player and looking to start playing RAID: Shadow Legends during its 5th anniversary, you can use the Promo Code FESTIVAL5 until April 4th to gain the Epic High Elf Champion, Tayrel, as an extra bonus!

As is now tradition every anniversary, players will be able to receive their yearly RAID Chronicle video during the Festival of Creation, which will either be an in-depth recap of their RAID: Shadow Legends progress so far, or a reminder of some of the amazing additions that have come to the game in the past 18 months. The RAID Chronicle will be available in-game between March 7th and 28th, with players gaining some additional rewards for sharing their videos via Facebook or X.

Those who watch their RAID Chronicle or spy many of the in-game activities for the Festival of Creation may also notice a rather dashing figure gazing into their crystal ball or enchanting the crowd with a song. Just who is this charming character?

Welcome Armanz the Magnificent

This confident performer is none other than Armanz the Magnificent, loyal servant of the Arbiter and the Festival of Creation’s master of ceremonies. An expert fortune-teller, lute player, magician, and showman, you will be able to add Armanz to your Champion Collection via a dedicated Fusion event held during the 5th anniversary celebrations! Don’t fret if you’re unable to obtain Armanz during this Fusion – he will be available to summon from Ancient, Primal, and Sacred Shards as well.

For all the details for the Fusion Event, as well as the many other Events, Tournaments, Summon Boosts and other activities that will be happening within RAID: Shadow Legends, make sure to consult the in-game Festival of Creation Event Hub. This will be your one-stop shop for any in-game activities connected to RAID: Shadow Legends’ 5th anniversary, so be sure to check back often for all the latest information.

Let the celebrations begin!

The Festival gates are now open, so time to join the revelry! Be sure to follow RAID: Shadow Legends across all major social media platforms for updates on Festival of Creation activities both in and outside of the game.

How can I get Sun Wukong?

As part of the Sun Wukong Chase event from August 22nd to October 31st 2023, you can unlock the monkey king for free by opening RAID: Shadow Legends on any seven separate days. This means October 23rd is your last chance to log in for the last seven consecutive days of the event.

After this, you’ll be able to summon Sun Wukong from Ancient or Sacred shards like other popular RAID Champions.

For true monkey king fans, Sun Wukong will also have a special Victorious Fighter skin available in game as well as a matching player avatar.

Last but by no means least, if you share the fact that you’ve unlocked Sun Wukong on social media when prompted by the game, you’ll earn a sweet gift of 120 Energy, five Superior Spirit Potions, and ten Spirit XP Brews!

Who is Sun Wukong?

A prominent figure in the iconic 16th century novel Journey to the West, Sun Wukong is going to bring a new flavor to the RAID: Shadow Legends Champion lineup.

An Attack-type Legendary Champion, Sun Wukong is part of the Skinwalkers Faction, and comes with a skillset that reflects his lore in popular culture – with a few RAID twists!

Known for his immortality, Sun Wukong as a RAID Champion has a unique passive ability that revives him with full health and Turn Meter three turns after he dies. His other skills specialize in stealing and blocking buffs as well as bypassing enemies’ defenses – build him right and he’ll be an invaluable addition to your Champion roster (to that end: keep an eye out for our Sun Wukong Champion guide as well!).

Is anything else happening to celebrate Sun Wukong’s release?

In addition to a special CG launch trailer set to an exclusive cover of a chart-topping single, there are also going to be several community events celebrating Sun Wukong’s arrival in the game.

Keep an eye on the RAID: Shadow Legends social media channels for all the latest updates about these!

Play RAID: Shadow Legends and get Sun Wukong now!

Remember you only need to open RAID: Shadow Legends on any seven separate days between August 22nd and October 31st 2023 to get Sun Wukong for free, so get going before this monkey escapes!

Your old tricks won’t work here — each new Tainted Boss has a new set of abilities and immunities. You’ll need to rework your teams and think outside of the box to ensure you defeat them, and get your hands on the rewards they’re hiding!

Speaking of rewards, Hard Mode Dungeons are certainly worth the effort! Hard Mode Dungeon Stages have a chance to drop Mythical Artifacts and Accessories, a Rarity which was previously only available in Hydra Chests. This means you can find Mythical Artifacts and Accessories from a wider range of Sets and Factions, and farm them whenever you want.

Dive into the Hard Mode Dungeons, defeat the Tainted Bosses, and get your hands on powerful Mythical Artifacts and Accessories!

Good luck and happy raiding!

Using Oils to Ascend Artifacts in RAID: Shadow Legends is similar to Champion Ascension using Potions, but with a few key differences. You’ll spend your hard-earned Oils to Ascend Artifacts and grant them bonus stats, making both them and your Champions more powerful.

Getting Oils requires taking on RAID’s newest Dungeon Boss — Al-Naemeh the Sand Devil. This fearsome foe hits hard, destroying your team’s MAX HP with devastating attacks. Raiding the Sand Devil’s Necropolis requires a well-thought out team of warriors that can stand the toughest attacks, deal major damage, and dish out important debuffs like Sleep. Check out the video below for more information on Artifact Ascension.

The Sand Devil awaits! Delve into the Necropolis today to take on Al-Naemeh the Sand Devil, and Ascend your Artifacts to grow your legend. Happy raiding!

These mysterious Fae-like creatures dwell in the Mistwood, following the laws of the enigmatic Sylvan Court. The tree-city capital of Nyresa may be open to outsiders, but beware — insulting a Faerie is trivially simple…and absolutely deadly.

The Sylvan Watchers are the latest addition to RAID: Shadow Legends, bringing new abilities, skills, and the brand-new Taunt buff with them. Keep an eye out for these woodland warriors as you continue to grow your legend and help fight the darkness growing in Teleria!
