Next-gen Celtic Heroes “Destiny” Engine Debuts on iOS & Yule Content Update

YULE!
Celtic Heroes players will also enjoy a massive end-of-year event with the free Yule update—bringing a touch of snow, fresh content, new mounts, luxury items . . . and Jack Frost 🙂

Yes—Jack Frost has come to the lands of Dal Riata to help fight the minions of the dark god of storms and lightning, Taranis. Players will do battle with Monoliths of the Maelstrom to gain impressive cold-dealing Frostiron weapons, rings or bracelets designed to enhance each class. A visit to Kennis of the Snow or Serena of the Ice in Farcrag will allow players to embark on fun seasonal quests.

Most of the Yule content is already up on iOS and will be added to Android soon. Stay tuned for the *12 Days of Christmas* special event. You’ll hear from us again next week!
