Happening at the same time as the Grimes-themed Neon Nights event is another event to celebrate the Lunar New Year. Players can claim the free Year of the Tiger bundle, which comes with the Tiny Tiger topper and the Tyger decal.
This is not Grimes’ first connection to a video game, as the 33-year-old previously teamed up with CD Projekt Red for Cyberpunk 2077. And in her new song, “Player of Games,” she sang about her previous relationship with Elon Musk, singing, “I’m in love with the greatest gamer / But he’ll always love the game / More than he loves me.”
