This article is about the 2016 iteration of Auld Lang Syne. For other years, see Auld Lang Syne.

Auld Lang Syne 2016 is a special New Year's story event. A loyalty character joins you at the start, and progressing through the story unlocks free quests and bosses. A new cutscene appears each day when opening the event's page.

An imposing sound rings out across the land, as if to mock the tranquility of the new year.

But the descendant of the Monkey King and defender of the West-Southwest has arrived to cleanse the skies of this aberration.
