There may be a giant mothership in the sky, but don’t let that stop you from having fun in the sun. The Cosmic Summer event starts now!

From now until July 5, 2021, at 11:59 PM ET, the Alien enthusiasts’ excitement is escalating to a full-on Welcome Party. In this extraterrestrial celebration, enjoy fan-favorite Creative LTMs, unlock summer-themed rewards, and put on your best beach attire with new and returning Outfits. Also, Abductors have recently made their first visit to the Island… (Get the latest intel from Hot Saucers.)


Creative LTMs, Quests, and Seashore Rewards

The popular Creative LTMs returning for Cosmic Summer are Bios Zone Wars Trio 1.0 - Custom Teams, Pro 100, Freaky Flights - Air Royale, and The Pit - FFA. In these particular LTMs (or simply the Islands themselves), you can complete Quests to unlock rewards fit for ANY beach party. Unlock the popsicle Brain Freeze Back Bling then each of its flavors, the surfboard Cloud Llama Board Glider then its range of designs, and much more!

Want more rewards? For completing two Cosmic Summer Quests, players will unlock the Believer Beach Loading Screen, a portrayal of the passionate POI. For completing six, players will unlock the Icy Pop Wrap, giving your the gear the look of a colorful cold treat. And for completing twelve, players will unlock the Lil’ Treat Emote, great for bringing the sweetness yourself! 

All the LTMs (and their Quests) will become available sequentially over the course of Cosmic Summer, and they’ll stay available until the end of the event.

Returning summer Outfits will be joining the party as well, like Summer Drift and Unpeely.
