This article contains information on content which has not yet been released outside of the Japanese PC servers. This content should be introduced to the Xbox 360 servers in a future update.

The (Lightning Carnival)^[1] is an upcoming event which will introduce a "theme park" aspect to Gurhal by releasing numerous missions which diverge from the norm. Such missions include quiz, duel and race missions. As with any theme park, (Lightning Carnival) missions require tickets to participate, so be sure to stock up on (Lightning Tickets) at the exchange mission before heading out to the carnival!

Event missions

At the beginning of the (Lightning Carnival), only a few missions will be available. These include the exchange mission, party mission, the first bonus mission and a recruitment mission. All others will be released either on a set schedule through the course of the event or through unlocking them by reaching predetermined milestones in the server-wide point tally. Though these methods have not been confirmed for the localized version of this event, check the event rewards section below for details on how certain mission releases may occur.

• (Dengeki Editorial Department) - item exchange mission
• (Carnival Standby Area) - recruitment mission
• (Do-or-die Spirit - Den) - first bonus mission
• (Do-or-die Spirit - Geki) - second bonus mission
• (Lightning Speed) - race mission
• (Protectors' Choice) - quiz mission
• (Television Puzzle) - party mission
• (Lightning Duel) - duel mission

Event rewards

As with many past events such as the 1Up Platinum Cup and Maximum Attack G, players will unlock rewards in the (Mission Carnival) by earning points in the event missions. These points will be tallied up for a server-wide total, and when predetermined milestones are reached, prizes will be unlocked. Some of the prizes associated with the event will be rewarded immediately, while others will be given out after the event has come to an end.

Based on the Japanese run of this event, some of the rewards that can be expected include the following. Please remember that the rewards listed here are subject to change and may not reflect the rewards presented by the localized version of this event.
