Crash the Runiverse II Returns With Wallet-Based $PIXEL Rewards

Crash the Runiverse II Goes Live for the Holidays

Forgotten Runiverse has launched Crash the Runiverse II during the holiday season. The event brings back the large-scale stress test format from earlier this year. This time, the reward pool includes 3 million $PIXEL tokens. The total value is around $24,000 at current prices. The event started on December 22 and ends on January 5. Players can take part throughout the full period without regional limits.

This new edition builds on the first Crash the Runiverse event from January. That earlier version focused on Quanta and internal systems. The second version shifts attention toward $PIXEL. This change reflects the deeper partnership with Pixels. The event also acts as a live test of server load during peak player activity.

How Players Can Join and Earn $PIXEL

Participation in Crash the Runiverse II is open to anyone with a compatible wallet. Players need to log in during the event window. Wallet linking is required before rewards tracking begins. Once linked, players earn $PIXEL by playing the game. No special signup steps are needed beyond that.

Rewards depend on several factors. Time spent in the game matters. Total spending also plays a role. Ownership of Forgotten Runiverse assets provides additional boosts. Higher-value assets give stronger multipliers. Asset floor price affects the final calculation. Exact multiplier values will be confirmed after the event. $PIXEL distribution will happen once the event ends.

The full event schedule runs from December 22 at 1:00 p.m. ET to January 5 at 1:00 p.m. ET. Activity outside this window does not count toward rewards.

A $PIXEL Crossover With Pixels

Crash the Runiverse II continues the shared $PIXEL economy between Forgotten Runiverse and Pixels. Both games run on Ronin. The partnership was announced in April. Players can earn and use $PIXEL across both worlds. This shared system has shaped several major events since then.

The crossover began in May with a large reward event. Players exchanged Quanta for access to 5 million $PIXEL. Special items were introduced during that phase. These included a Pixels Mount and cosmetic robes. Quanta was also used for bidding. The partnership later expanded through land systems and building upgrades. These features connected both economies more closely.

Over the summer, the crossover moved toward PvP-focused content. Guild-based events became a core feature. The August event Glory and Renown added 2.5 million $PIXEL to the reward pool. Guilds competed through ranked PvP battles. Risk and reward mechanics shaped each match.

This phase followed the Sunflower Farm update. That update changed core gameplay systems. It also prepared the foundation for competitive content. Each event added more depth to the shared economy. Player behavior data was collected throughout. Token flow across both games became easier to track.

New Features Added to Forgotten Runiverse

Alongside the event, Forgotten Runiverse released a new update. Dungeon Mercenary NPCs are now available. These NPCs allow solo players to hire companions. Dungeon runs become more accessible. Efficiency stays competitive with group play.

The development team also confirmed two known dungeon bugs. Fixes are still in progress. Updates may arrive during the event period. No timeline was guaranteed. Players were advised to expect changes after testing is complete.

Holiday Sale Runs Until January 5

A holiday sale is now live inside Forgotten Runiverse. All items are discounted by 50 percent. The sale runs until January 5. This matches the full duration of Crash the Runiverse II. The discount applies across in-game assets and store content. No item list or bundle details were shared. Players can check the store directly for updates.

The original Crash the Runiverse took place in January 2025. It served as a stress test before Global Early Access. The reward pool included 21 trillion Quanta. Participation followed strict regional time slots. Gameplay included dungeon runs and forging. Players also used the Omen system to adjust dungeon difficulty.

That first event focused only on Forgotten Runiverse systems. The second version centers on the Pixels partnership. $PIXEL now sits at the core of the reward design.
