Festive Atmosphere

You can increase your garage's Festive Atmosphere by upgrading the Levels of various objects in the garage, like the Christmas tree. You can do so by using Rock Crystal and Pure Emerald.

There are 10 Levels in total. Each Level upgrade will grant you various rewards.

At Festive Atmosphere Level II, you will regain your old companion, Chaffee, who will bring three rewards Sacks with him. After that, you can unlock more Sacks by completing three daily missions. You have the option to upgrade your Sacks by buying special bundles using Gold to enhance the rewards. Chaffee also has his own customization as you can turn him into a Husky if you want.

At Level V, you will get the Redshire Cat, who will give you three special assignments that you can complete using Warm Amber and Meteoric Iron. These assignments will get you more rewards tailored to represent the Redshire Cat.

Best Friends

When you get into Holiday Ops 2025, you will be assigned two Best Friends from your Friends list. You will also have the option to change your Best Friend.

Visiting these two Best Friends' Festive Villages will get you extra resources. You can visit and collect resources from their Festive Villages once every day.

Getting resources from your Best Friends will not affect their resources. The more you visit their villages, the greater the chances for you to receive the following friendship-themed rewards:

Six inscriptions (for collecting resources six times)
Six decals (for collecting resources 12 times)
A 2D style with unique Marks of Excellence (for collecting resources 24 times)
