Mining Expeditions:
For years, Mining on Prison has remained largely unchanged. This upcoming season, we’re introducing a brand new experience for all players to enjoy – Mining Expeditions! These can be accessed in the newly added world, located at /warp expedition.

During a Mining Expedition, players will take on three distinct objectives, each requiring them to mine a specific amount of certain blocks. The layout of the Mining Expedition mine is unique, challenging players to search for valuable ore veins (opposed to mining at random). Successfully completing Mining Expeditions rewards players with exclusive benefits, including permanent discounts on all spawners!

Escaped Convicts:
After completing a mining expedition, you may have the chance to uncover a rare and exciting reward: the Escaped Convict. Using this unique item summons a convict in the Wilderness, who will immediately begin fleeing for their life. The challenge? Track them down and claim victory! Whoever succeeds in taking down the convict will be handsomely rewarded for their efforts.

Token Chests:
Token Chests are an exciting new feature coming in the upcoming season! Say goodbye to the hassle of managing a token shop and overflowing chests. With these new chests, players can effortlessly set up an endless token shop without any concerns about storage limitations! Like all custom items on Prison, these unique chests can be purchased from the Essence Shop.

​

Reaction Questions:
Reaction chat games (which take place in chat roughly every 30 minutes) will be receiving an update this upcoming season introducing more games! Players can expect to see reaction based questions in chat, keeping you on your toes! Stay alert and ready to test your reflexes and quick thinking!

​

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! This upcoming season, players can expect to see a revamped version of one of our older spawns, alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!
