In World of Warcraft there are Christmas gifts again. This year it’s actually quite cool – and you shouldn’t miss it.
A long-standing tradition in all major MMORPGs, including World of Warcraft, are the Christmas gifts – or in the case of Azeroth, the “Winter Veil Gifts”. Every year there is something new, as in 2021. Those who have the opportunity should collect the latest gift, or even those from previous years, now.
Where can you find the gifts? You will receive the gifts at different locations depending on your faction.
- Horde players go to Orgrimmar to the Valley of Honor and find the huge Winter Veil tree with the gifts there.
- Alliance players travel to Ironforge to find Grandfather Winter in front of the bank.
The gifts lie there as quests under the tree. Don’t worry, you only need to “accept” the quest to complete it immediately. There is no real task.
What’s new this year? In 2021 there are a number of new gifts that especially toy collectors might like – but also for those who still enjoy playing with toy cars.
New is the “Rockin’ Rollin’ Racer Customizer 19.9.3”. This is a toy with which you can summon different vehicles, with which you then race against other players in the best “Mario Kart” style. There are different abilities, such as mines or oil slicks.
This is a nod to Blizzard’s early game “Rock N’ Roll Racing”, which was released in 1993.
The toy can then be used by all your characters, as it simply goes into the toy collection.
Until when do you have time? The gifts can only be opened starting from December 25th. However, you have time until the end of the event, which is January 1st, 2022.
If you don’t grab the gift, that’s not too bad. Usually, you can still collect the Christmas gifts in the following years or earn them in other ways. So if you are currently taking a break from WoW, you are only missing out on something temporarily.
What do you think about this Christmas gift? A cool idea? Or does it not motivate you to log into World of Warcraft?
