  • Use the ‘Selfie’ feature in-game and take a screenshot based on your chosen category:
    • Solo (1 character)
    • Pairs (2 characters)
    • Group (minimum of 3 – max of 5 members)
 
  • The following must be accomplished while taking the screenshot to make it a valid entry:
    • Make sure that the ‘Add Watermark’ option is turned on in the Camera settings for the Closers Online logo to appear in the results.
    • Make sure that all character names can be clearly seen in the screenshot; otherwise, the entry will be invalid.
    • Make sure that the event rules were followed accordingly (see Event Rules below).

 
  • After taking a screenshot, post your entry according to the category with your Year-end message
    • You may send a New Year’s greeting to Closers, your friends, crewmates, or anyone else you care about. It doesn’t have to be about the year that has just ended. It can be a message you wish to convey in anticipation of 2023!
    • Discord Channels:
      • #solo_year_end_party – for Solo category
      • #pair_year_end_party – for Pair category
      • #group_year_end_party – for Group category
    • You can only join once (1 Discord account = 1 Closers account) in any category during the event.
      • Example: If you already joined the ‘Solo’ category, your ‘Pair’ entry will be invalid.


Sample Entry

Cheers to a New Year! Hoping for everyone’s wishes will come true, more monsters to fight, and new memories to have, especially with my buddies in-game!



For the Pair and Group categories, only one representative should send in the entry.

Each member would receive a prize if a specific pair or group won.
• Note: If you have submitted more than one entry, we will only refer to the first entry submitted. So, if more than one representative posted an entry, we will refer to the first representative who posted the entry.
• If a participant joined again, but with a different pair or group, that individual would be disqualified.
