Daily Double Rewards, Winter Gold Chests & Palmiers — ABI’s Winter Festival Explained

❄️ Winter Festival Update at a Glance

Arena Breakout: Infinite is rolling out a live update on November 25, 2025 (03:30 UTC+0) to get Kamona ready for its Winter Festival. The patch delivers more than just festive cosmetics: it also includes important loot and gear rule changes, plus key bug fixes like the long-talked-about Mk14 recoil issue.

The update is a live patch—if you’re in-game when it drops, you’ll need to exit and hit “Update” in the launcher to play on the latest version.

🎄 Winter Festival — Events & Rewards

🧊 Daily Check-In: Double Rewards

Starting November 28, 05:00 (UTC+0), the Winter Festival kicks off with boosted daily check-in rewards. Logging in daily during the event can net:

• 1,000,000 Koen total

• 10 Cute Pet Vouchers

• 10 Skin Supply Coupons

• 1 event-exclusive food item: Winter Palmier

That Winter Palmier isn’t just for show—you’ll be able to exchange it later in the “Dessert Connoisseur” event for Winter Gift Boxes.

🎯 Winter Challenge Missions

Also from November 28, Winter Challenge missions go live, letting you grind for seasonal cosmetics and goodies:

• Winter Festival AN-94 weapon skin

• “Holly’s Wish” spray

• Extra Skin Supply Coupons

• More Cute Pet Vouchers

• Additional challenge-based rewards

Expect mission objectives that encourage active raiding—extracting with loot, surviving encounters, and staying aggressive.

🥐 Winter Palmier & Winter Gift Boxes

The Winter Palmier isn’t just a login prize—you’ll also be able to loot it in raids:

• Palmiers can drop from gym bags and ordinary jackets

• Eating one sedates your character (fun side effect, risky in a firefight)

• If you extract while carrying Winter Palmiers, you can trade them in for Winter Gift Boxes, which can contain:

  • Purple and gold tier miscellaneous items

  • Red collectibles

So you’ll be weighing the risk of lugging sedative pastries against the chance at high-value loot.

💰 Winter Gold Chest Event (From December 5)

From December 5, the Winter Gold Chest event layers on even more rewards:

• Winter Festival Cards can be found in drawers and winter coats during raids

• Delivering these cards builds up cumulative Gold Chest progress, awarding:

  • Winter Elf P90 weapon skin

  • 1,600,000 Koen in total

  • 10 Cute Pet Vouchers

  • 10 Skin Supply Coupons

  • Basic Elite Cards

  • Extra coin rewards

If you’re a heavy raider, this is the event tailor-made for you.

⏳ Limited-Time Bonds Expiry Notice

One important warning bundled with the update:

• Free Limited-Time Bonds from the previous “Free Limited-Time Bonds” event will expire on December 1

• Any unused bonds vanish after that date—make sure to use them before they disappear

🧰 Fixes & Gameplay Adjustments

This patch isn’t just about snow and skins; it also tightens the rules of Kamona.

🎒 Gear Restrictions in Raids

To clamp down on extra-storage exploits and keep things fair:

• You can only bring chest rigs and backpacks that are actually equipped on your PMC into raids

• You can no longer drag additional rigs or backpacks from stash into the raid as “bonus storage”

Loadout planning now matters even more—you’ll need to commit to what you wear.

💣 Throwable & Seasonal Item Fixes

A few important bug and item changes:

• Fixed an issue where players couldn’t use throwables properly after “cooking” them in some situations

• The Halloween item Miraculous Pumpkin (stage 4) can no longer be brought into raids, closing out leftover event behavior

🌄 Map & Market Fixes

Quality-of-life improvements hit both maps and the market:

• Fixed a terrain freeze bug on Northridge that could lock character movement

• Keys placed on a keychain now correctly appear in the Market when you list them

• Fixed an incorrect error prompt that appeared when players tried to list multiple items without enough ammo in them

📦 Inventory & Audio Tweaks

• Certain Season supplies that previously couldn’t be placed in cases now behave correctly

• Adjusted sound effects associated with using keycards on locked rooms, making feedback more accurate and satisfying

🔫 Weapon & Exploit Fixes

The patch also addresses some high-impact issues:

• Mk14 marksman rifle recoil has been corrected, making it far more predictable and usable

• Multiple out-of-bounds exploits on the Farm and TV Station maps have been patched, closing “unusual location” hiding spots

Altogether, these tweaks improve the feel of gunplay and the integrity of raids.

✅ Why This Update Matters

• Big value for active players: Double check-ins, Palmiers, Festival Cards, and challenge rewards add up to a hefty pile of free value—especially for F2P.

• Real gameplay impact: Gear restrictions and Mk14 recoil fixes directly affect how you build kits and approach fights.

• Cleaner raids, fewer exploits: Terrain, key, and out-of-bounds fixes reduce frustrating deaths and cheesy tactics.

For players grinding ranking or stacking wealth in Kamona, this is both a loot holiday and a mini-balance patch rolled into one.

💡 Player Tips for the Winter Festival

1. Log in every day once the event starts
   Grab all the Koen, Pet Vouchers, Skin Coupons, and Winter Palmiers from check-ins.

2. Farm Winter Palmiers deliberately

   • Prioritize gym bags and jackets in your loot routes

   • Extract with Palmiers to turn them into Winter Gift Boxes

3. Clear Winter Challenge missions early
   Unlock the Winter Festival AN-94 skin and Holly’s Wish spray first, then sweep up extra coupons and vouchers.

4. Prep for Winter Gold Chest on December 5
   Farm drawers and winter coats for Winter Festival Cards to push toward the Winter Elf P90 and big Koen payouts.

5. Spend Limited-Time Bonds before December 1
   Don’t let free gacha value evaporate—use them on your highest-priority banners.

6. Adapt to the new gear rules
   Rebuild your default loadouts with the knowledge that only equipped rigs and backpacks can come with you into a raid.
