New World Twitch Drops: What’s available?
From December 23rd, 2021 to January 12, 2022, a crossover event betweeen New World andWheel of Timewill give you the opportunity to nab some themed skins and accessories via Twitch Drops.
To claim these seven items you need to watch seven cumulative hours of drop-enabled New World streams while the event is live. The event begins onDecember 23rd at 9pm PT, which in other parts of the world isDecember 24th at 12am ET / 5 am GMT; and is due to run untilJanuary 12th, 2022 at 12am PT / 3am ET / 8am GMT.
At the time of writing, it’s unclear whether you’ll unlock one drop per hour or will receive the whole bundle at the end of the seven hours. Either way, settle in for some seasonal Twitch viewing if you want the whole collection.
Expired New World Twitch Drops
The following Twitch Drops are not currently available to claim unless you already earned them:
Since we’re so early on in New World’s (presumably long) life, we don’t know yet whether these will become available again in other events down the line. For now though,you can’t claim the Golden Rage or Verdant Trapper armor skins if you didn’t earn them during the period when their respective Twitch Drops were active.
(Also, if you did miss out, don’t worry — while they do look undoubtedly cool, skins are purely cosmetic and don’t convey any stat boosts or other gameplay benefits to players wearing them.)
Why can’t I see my earned Twitch Drops in-game?
If you’ve earned any current or previous Twitch Drops but can’t see your items in-game, first ensure that your New World account is linked to your Twitch account,following our instructions below.
Also remember that these are skins rather than armor pieces, so you need to apply them to your character’s already-equipped armor,as explained in our New World armor guide.
How to earn and claim New World Twitch Drops
The official New World website has a page dedicated to Twitch Drops. Here you can see details of any Twitch Drops that are currently active (as well as the most recently expired one at time of writing), along with instructions on how to earn them.
If your New World and Twitch accounts are linked, any Drops you earned from Twitch should automatically show up in the appropriate place in New World as soon as they become available in-game (i.e., skins should be available to apply to equipped weapons or armor).
How to link your New World and Twitch accounts
To link your New World and Twitch accounts so that you can claim your Twitch Drops, simply go to theTwitch Drops page on the New World siteand follow the instructiosn there.
Linking the two accounts is a simple matter of logging in on this page with both your New World and Twitch usernames and passwords when prompted to, and agreeing to activate Twitch Drops in New World.
The Wheel of Time crossover event is running more or less concurrently with New World’s festiveWinter Convergence Event, which is another source of freebies for the eager New World player, so be sure to check out our page on it for more information on how to take part and what’s up for grabs.
