NetEase’s 1v4 asymmetrical battler begins a new season set in the bitter cold on a snowclad island, with winter sports at its core.

Moving onto a more graceful event, players can take part in figure skating, where they must impress people by dancing elegantly and with poise on ice. Perfumer is the queen here because when she dons her silver dress and spins, jumps, and flies on the ice, everyone is enchanted by her grace. Another must-have for any event is a mascot. The Breaking Wheel has everyone covered for that as he shows up with his overcoat, top hat, throwing around snowballs decked with baby carrots and emoji-like expressions. He probably does look a bit creepy doing that but players are guaranteed to want to build their own snowman looking at the Breaking Wheel.

Don’t slip on the ice! Start skating around the snowclad island by downloading Identity V for free on the App Store and Google Play.
