Summer Harvest Event

The Summer Harvest Event launched June 21, 2025 in Update 1.11.0 and was one of the first seasonal overhauls to fundamentally rework a core system rather than bolt on a side activity. Its headline was a complete overhaul of the Seed Shop with summer-themed plants, which meant the whole growing meta shifted for the duration as players adapted to a fresh rotation of crops.

The defining loop was the hourly submission of summer crops to earn Harvest Points, a recurring cadence that rewarded players who checked in throughout the day rather than once. Those points fed a reward pool that notably recycled past event items such as seeds, gear and eggs, making this a rare second chance to grab content originally tied to earlier limited drops. The smart priority was keeping a steady supply of summer crops ready every hour and spending points first on the returning event-exclusive items that are hardest to obtain elsewhere.

As a summer-themed event, the concept can plausibly return in a later year, but the exact crop lineup and the specific recycled rewards are not guaranteed to repeat. Anything you pulled from that returning pool is worth holding, since it represents otherwise-retired content.
