The Rabbit’s Revenge event commenced with the New World Update 1.9.1 downtime that started at 11:00PM PT (6:00AM UTC) on April 11. In this event, you can earn special rewards by tracking down Corrupted Rabbits.
However, beware of their increased danger this time around! From April 12 to April 25, the hunt for event-specific loot will be on, but keep an eye out for explosive surprises.
