Month of the Mad God (MotMG) is a 1-2 month long event, first held in June 2014, to celebrate Realm of the Mad God and its community. Some MotMG events included new skins available for fame, the release of reskinned equipment items, including higher drop rates for the limited UTs, the first public release of Lair of Draconis, forum events and price discounts and promotions on nexus shop items.

Month of the Mad God 2023

MotMG 2022 arrived with {{template-release|exaltVersion=4.0.0.0}} on the 1st of August. This MotMG theme was 'A Hero’s Choice' and introduced the Enchanting system. Community Votes were held to determine the order of the Dungeon events.

Month of the Mad God 2022

MotMG 2022 arrived with {{template-release|exaltVersion=3.0.0.0}} on the 2nd of August. The theme was 'Vindication'. This came with the Wanderer and 4 mercenaries appearing throughout the Realm and Dungeons, including the new Hidden Interregnum. It also introduced weapon "subtypes" and a battlepass system.

Month of the Mad God 2021

On the 17th of August, {{template-release|exaltVersion=2.0.0.0}} launched Month of the Mad God. This year's MotMG theme was 'Antinomy'. The update came with two big announcements: Dungeon Modifiers and a Shatters rework. This update also included UT Trading, which made all lower and mid tiered UTs tradable for the duration of MotMG. 'Enchantments' were also teased in the patch notes. The first half of MotMG was themed around the Void. The nexus got a total dark reskin and the Antinomy: Chaos Campaign started. Void and Daeva tokens dropped from bosses and encounters. With the campaign, a battle between Light and Void also begun. Half of the classes were on the side of Void, and the other half on the side of Light. Every week, the amount of each side's tokens that were consumed would be counted and a winner of the skin battle would be determined. During the entire month there were many chest events and special encounters in the realm. Many new consumables, cosmetics, and antinomy themed equipment were introduced. But this Month of the Mad God had a rough start. A game breaking insta-kill bug was also introduced in the update, which caused the Tier 3 Mace to "eat" bullets and redistribute the damage to each player in the vicinity of the summon. Luckily, the bug was fixed surprisingly quickly on the same day. On the 24th of August Dungeon Modifiers were intoduced in {{template-release|exaltVersion=2.0.1.0}}, along with more cosmetics. On the 26th of August, {{template-release|exaltVersion=2.0.2.0}} was released with the Shatters rework. The dungeon was completely reworked and got a totally different look and feel, new enemies, bosses, loot, and a soundtrack. On September 7th, the Light took over and {{template-release|exaltVersion=2.0.3.0}} gave the nexus a brand new look, another campaign, and more cosmetics. The Enchantments feature, which was teased at the beginning of MotMG, was delayed. The Antinomy: Light Campaign started and the Shatters got many tweaks. Another insta-kill bug was fixed, caused by the newly reworked Avatar of the Forgotten King. During one phase, bullets stacked and would instantly kill players who seemingly only touched a single bullet. On September 13th, the new Light nexus was removed. Many players experienced disconnection issues and it was believed the new nexus decorations were the culprit. The nexus was reverted to the regular Summer nexus. On September 28th, Month of the Mad God Antinomy came to an end. The first teaser can be found here, the second teaser can be found here, and the third teaser can be found here.

Month of the Mad God 2020

MotMG was delayed to the later part of September in 2020 due to the earlier release of [Oryx's Sanctuary](/wiki/oryx-s-sanctuary). This MotMG included some of the largest updates in the history of the game, and its beginning coincided with the official death of the Adobe Flash client. MotMG 2020 had a "reconstruction" theme, which included a redesigned [Vault](/wiki/vault) and refurbishments to the earliest Wildshadow-era dungeons, including the [Pirate Cave](/wiki/pirate-cave), [Forest Maze](/wiki/forest-maze), [Spider Den](/wiki/spider-den), [Snake Pit](/wiki/snake-pit), [Undead Lair](/wiki/undead-lair), and [Abyss of Demons](/wiki/abyss-of-demons). This MotMG also debuted the [Appetizer](/wiki/the-appetizer) event boss. MotMG 2020 also included significant and controversial balancing changes, including [Vital Combat](/wiki/vital-combat) (which decreases [pet](/wiki/pets) restoration abilities in combat), along with the [Exaltation](/wiki/exaltation) progession system for endgame players. A teaser for MotMG 2020 can be found [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/RotMG/comments/il89me/motmg_2020_reconstruction/). A [trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt5kQY9JayM) was later released.

MotMG 2019 was alien-themed and introduced the [Alien UFO](/wiki/alien-ufo) event boss and Wormhole dungeons, which allowed players to equip [powerful rings](/wiki/alien-gear) with "reactive proc" effects.
