What is Blood Moon?

Only occurs after 7 in-game days

Every after 7 in-game days have passed, a red moon will appear at 12:00 AM. When the red moon occurs, it has effects such as resets of defeated monsters and items in the field.

Please note that bonfires and sleeping to kill time do not count as a day.

Also, if you are in a shrine on a day when the Blood moon appears, the red moon will not appear on that day and will appear the next day.

Effects of Blood Moon

Defeated monster respawns

When the red moon appears, the monsters and enemies that have been defeated so far will be respawned. Guardians of monsters and shrines that did not appear in specific locations will also be revived.

Items in the field are revived

Weapons dropped on the open field, weapons stuck in the ground, and crushed ore deposits will also be revived.

100% Success rate on Cooking

Cooking successes are usually random, but on days when there is a red moon, it will be a great success.

The more successful the dish, the more effective the dish, so it is the best to make a lot of dishes during the red moon.
