Why holiday events matter in RSPS
Every year, December becomes one of the most exciting months for RSPS players. Most servers launch special holiday events, winter cosmetics, seasonal bosses and bonus XP weekends. Because many people have more free time during Christmas and New Year’s, this period brings a massive spike in activity — making it a perfect moment to start or return to an RSPS.
This guide covers what you can expect from holiday-themed RSPS content this month, and how to find servers that offer the best seasonal events.
Common winter and holiday events on RSPS
While every server designs its events differently, most RSPS include some variation of the following December features:
- Seasonal quests — short, festive missions that reward unique cosmetics or boxes.
- Christmas bosses — custom events like Ice Demons, Snow Fiends or Santa raids.
- Limited-time holiday items — Santa hats, winter weapons, festive pets and more.
- Double XP weekends — extremely popular during Christmas week.
- Winter zones — special maps with unique NPCs and seasonal mechanics.
Seasonal events are usually beginner-friendly, so even new players can join and earn meaningful rewards.
Why December is the best time to try a new RSPS
Player activity reaches one of its highest points of the year in December. Developers often use this period to release:
- major updates to keep players active during the holidays,
- fresh game modes or resets,
- exclusive drops that never return after the season ends.

Exclusive rewards and seasonal rares
December events often include items that become extremely valuable after the holidays are over. Players who participate early can secure:
- limited-edition cosmetics that won’t return next year,
- holiday boxes containing rare items or pets,
- event currencies exchangeable for winter gear,
- exclusive titles for completing seasonal challenges.
Many RSPS also release holiday mystery boxes with high-tier items — a popular reward that brings players back for seasonal grinds.
Tips to get the most out of holiday RSPS events
- Start early so you don’t miss limited-time rewards.
- Check Discord announcements for event schedules and bonus weekends.
- Join seasonal groups for faster boss kills and raids.
- Save holiday currencies for top-tier cosmetic items.
- Try multiple servers if you enjoy variety — winter events differ a lot.
