About the event

Metal Cruise — Dripping wet.

Metal Cruise takes the spirit of the Sabaton Cruise and drags it ashore. To a sun resort caught in a downpour, where a crowd of adventurers trade the beach umbrella for a wall of sound.

Costa del Sol was built for sunshine. We're throwing the party anyway. When the evening rain sets in over Eastern La Noscea, the resort's neon flickers to life and the coast turns into one open-air stage.

Expect live sets, glamour that survives a soaking, a screenshot frenzy under the lightning, and a few thousand players packed shoulder to pauldron. Bring a metal/rock glam. Bring your loudest emote. Leave your umbrella at the aetheryte.

It's free, it's fan-run, and it happens once! One rainy evening, and then it's gone.
