Nexon has released a new content update for its popular action RPG Dragon Nest, named Scarlet Snow, that adds two new raid encounters, eleven new dungeons, and some festive holiday events.

Dragon Nest’s level cap is being raised to 40 today, which means each character specialization will have access to all new skills, including an ultimate skill for the first time. Players will need to put these new skills to good use in order to conquer the two new max level raid encounters launching today, the Manticore nest and the Apocalypse nest. Available both on normal and hell difficulty modes, the fearsome new end bosses of the nest encounters drop the most powerful loot in the game, as well as badges that can be redeemed in Saint’s Haven for two newly released mounts. Mounts provide a movement speed bonus in towns and fields, and are also great ways to show off one’s status to other players.

The winter holidays have come to Dragon Nest, and a fun, festive atmosphere permeates the air in town and in dungeons. Players can purchase a holiday set package to receive special holiday rewards, or they can defeat Santa Ducks and Rudolph Ducks in dungeons to earn holiday fireworks, snowballs, or even a new gesture. Players will have plenty to explore in the eleven new dungeons opening up today for players levels 32 and up. Fans of player versus player (PvP) combat will also have all new gear sets to acquire.
