ETB | Chinese New Year
ETB | Chinese New Year adds six festive suits to the Escape Backrooms experience, each drawn from Chinese New Year traditions and the Year of the Horse.
What it does
The suits are cosmetic additions, and each one follows a theme from the holiday: a traditional outfit with decorative patterns based on classic Chinese fabrics, a luxurious suit with golden details meant to suggest prosperity and fortune, a costume based on the lion dance, a horse-themed outfit made to match the Year of the Horse collection, and two more festive pieces that bring lantern-festival colors into the setting.
The mod runs on NeoForge and is published for 1.21.8 and 26.1.2, with 1.0.2 for 26.1.2 as the latest file. It is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
