This actually isn't the only limited-time event New World will be hosting over the Winter break. Yesterday on December 16, the Winter Convergence event debuted in Amazon's MMO, and will be running until later next month on January 11, 2022, the exact same days that the Wheel of Time event wraps up on. There's a tonne more to delve into in the Winter Convergence event though, including new quests, activities, cosmetic rewards, and much more.
