The annual Red Festival is here! Alongside the traditional festivities of wearing red and gold, feasting on dyed red noodles (or calossk tentacles!), and hunting for hidden red envelopes across the ‘verse, this year, we’re inviting you to embrace the spirit of Red Festival by enveloping the ‘verse in kindness.

Welcome to the ‘2955 Envelop the ‘Verse in Kindness Screenshot Contest’!

Acts of kindness can take many forms, from helping a stranded pilot, delivering essential supplies, and sharing your resources with those in need to organizing community events that bring people together. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, leaves a lasting impact and contributes to a larger wave of goodwill that can transform the ‘verse. This is your chance to help shape it into a more welcoming and compassionate place.

Perform acts of kindness in the ‘verse, capture these moments in a stunning screenshot, and inspire others to pay the kindness forward. Who knows, maybe good fortune will find its way back to you! Don’t forget to include this year’s Red Festival envelope in the shot; 2955 is the Year of the Pig, and the pig is a symbol of wealth and good fortune, after all!
