The Year of the Horse gallops in with Fortune’s Torrid Steed, blazing with fire and luck. Want something cuter? The pony pet delivers the celebratory flair in a pipsqueak package. Steam post image

Treasured Twisted Grin of Doom

A new Treasure Chest variant of the Twisted Grin of Doom has arrived with cooler tones and serious attitude. Pull it from chests or craft it with shards. Either way, that grin is yours to wield.

February’s promo item, the Twisted Grin of Doom, is awarded with any purchase this month. Becoming a Guardian also unlocks the Guardian’s Twisted Grin of Doom, a golden variant. It’s a seriously sinister and stylish reward for supporting the game. Leaves Wednesday!

Last Chance: Fabulous Twisted Grin of Doom

Limited-time shop items will now be available for a full month instead of one week... and that month is now up!. The Fabulous Twisted Grin of Doom celebrates Valentine’s Day... but will leave this Wednesday.

Last Chance: Gaz's Last Chance Shop

Gaz's shop is packed with items that are about to disappear forever! Make sure to check out his shop in Battleon before Wednesday to get your gauntlets on his goods.

Still collecting all those screenshots o__O

Wow! We had such a stellar turnout for the Screenshot Saturday Selfie Contest that we are STILL collecting all the entires across socials. The judges already snuck a peek and are blown away already! Hoping to begin contest judging next week... wish us luck. Also... wish us lots of luck on the AQW Infinity Kickstarter, too!
