There's less than twenty-five days until Christmas, and in Barony, the denizens of the dungeon like to celebrate in style.

Starting December 1st and going through the end of the year, it's time once again for Merry Barony! For this festive month, Barony gets a festive makeover that decks the halls, adds all sort of seasonal treats, and sees some of your favorite enemies dressing for the occasion.

Note that while disguised items might look different (and may bear a different name too!), the gameplay you know and love is 100% intact.

Clicking the holiday banner at the main menu will take you to the settings "Online" panel. Here, you can toggle on/off the seasonal content as desired.

If you want to show off your Merry Barony spirit, don't forget about the Christmas themed avatar frame. This festive frame features a snowy tableaux complete with Christmas trees, presents, and even a gnome!

This is available now on the Barony Points Shop!

If you played last year, you'll remember a lot of what's here. There were a few small updates that were necessary following the Eat My Hat update. If you're new to Merry Barony, read on!

'Tis the season to hang lights, drape garland, and set up your tree. For Merry Barony, the dungeon gets a full makeover. You'll find fountains hung with stockings, garland lining gates, and treasure chests that look mysteriously like presents just waiting to be opened (Fair warning: Mimics are wrapped too!).

Just because you're a monster that lurks in the halls of Baron Herx's dungeon doesn't mean you can't be in the Christmas spirit! Several monsters are dressed for the occasion and bring some much-needed cheer to the otherwise lethal halls of this domain. Rats are dressed as reindeer, ghouls have gotten downright frosty, and even the demons love to wear an ugly Christmas sweater from time to time!

Everybody loves a good Santa hat and some warm earmuffs to keep out the cold, and given the chilly look of the dungeon, these cozy items are what every adventurer needs! Everything from hats to shields gets a makeover for the season.

In addition to the changes from last year's Merry Barony, all of the icons for the themed items have gotten a brand new look. Additionally, some hats and masks have been reworked to support the recent Eat My Hat update.

The food items in Barony have been updated for the season. Keep your eyes out for candy canes and roasted turkeys. The food in the dungeons is downright delicious this time of year.

Hum along to haunting renditions of all of your favorite Christmastime classics, as Merry Barony replaces all of the music in the game with seasonally appropriate tracks. Most of the tracks were crafted by Nicolas Gasparini (Myuu). Myuu has offered his work on Barony under the CC3.0 License. We make no claims that his art is an endorsement of the game.
