Spring has sprung in Albion, and the chocolate-fueled eggstravaganza begins soon! For two full weeks, the Rites of Spring returns in a cocoa-rich celebration. From Fame boosts to combat-ready bunnies, get ready for an event full of loot, fluff, and far too many types of eggs.
After each server’s next maintenance, the chocolate rush begins:
- Albion Asia: April 14 at 23:00 UTC – April 28 at 23:00 UTC[/*]
- Albion Americas & Europe: April 15 at 10:00 UTC – April 29 at 10:00 UTC[/*]
Snack for Fame
This year, Albion’s bunnies have outdone themselves, scattering even more types of treats across the land. Find new Chocolate Eggs and crack them open to get a 15% Fame boost for 30 minutes. Just don’t try sitting on these – everyone knows bunnies don’t hatch from eggs…
The Cottontail Mafia Returns
Oh, who are we kidding? Of course bunnies hatch from eggs! Keep an eye out for the rare Cottontail Eggs during your egg-hunting adventures. These can be raised into Tier 8 bunny mounts with serious hop: the Spring Cottontail, a soft, snowy puffball of speed and bounce, and the rarer, darker Caerleon Cottontail, whose leap ends with a fearsome bite that roots enemies and sends them running. Don’t let the fluff fool you… these mounts bite back!

Hunt for Spring Loot
Wondering where to find all those eggs? Spring Treasure Chests will be popping up across the open world, packed with Chocolate Eggs and, if fortune favors you, a Cottontail Egg or two.
Meanwhile, Colored Eggs have also returned. These vibrant finds may also contain Chocolate Eggs and, on very rare occasions, a Cottontail Egg. But that’s not all: you might also uncover Chocolate bars to boost your Energy, and, most importantly, Surprise Eggs. Bring those to the Vanity Merchant and trade them for seasonal delights like the Bunny Stalker wardrobe, the Snow Bunny Hat that spawns cuddly companions, or the coveted Eggsecutioner – an overengineered contraption that lobs eggs and spawns critters on impact.
Phew! At this point, we’ve got more eggs than sense, and more chocolate than any one adventurer should safely eat.
It’s chaotic, it’s egg-cellent, and it all begins very soon. Hop to it!
