When is the next Treasure Hunt event in Monopoly GO?

These events are a great opportunity to unlock exclusive tokens and shields.

Monopoly GO’s next Treasure Hunt or dig minigame is Sunken Treasures, coming May 23. That would be about three weeks since the last event, Nocturnal Treasures, which would follow the usual release schedule for Treasure Hunts.

Treasure Hunt events in Monopoly GO usually pop up once a month, between 20 to 30 days after the previous one. There’s no set date for when they happen because the developer, Scopely, might change things up depending on when other big events like Golden Blitz, Partner Events, and Prize Drops are happening. They try to make sure these events don’t overlap, so you probably won’t see a Treasure Hunt going on at the same time as those others.

Here’s the list of the most recent Treasure Hunt events for reference:

Treasure Hunt eventRelease date
Nocturnal TreasuresMay 3
Anniversary TreasuresApril 16
Sunset TreasuresMarch 18
Galactic TreasuresFebruary 23
Jungle TreasuresJanuary 22
Moonlight TreasuresDecember 10, 2023
Egyptian TreasuresNovember 13, 2023

The dates of upcoming Treasure Hunts are based on the release patterns of these events that we’ve observed and of information found in the Monopoly GO game files by data miners. The May 23 timing would be perfectly welcome, especially because we’re a month away from the end of the Making Music Album, so having a Wild Sticker offer would be an amazing opportunity to fill up an Album set.

Remember to keep checking this article, as we’ll update you with any new info on when the next Treasure Hunt event will start.

What is the Treasure Hunt event in Monopoly GO?

Treasure Hunt events in Monopoly GO, sometimes called dig minigames or pickaxe events, are challenges where you use tokens to chip away at tiles on a grid to uncover hidden artifacts and treasures. Once you find all the treasures on one grid, you win rewards like dice and sticker packs and move on to the next grid for rarer and more generous rewards. Each event typically offers up to 20 grids filled with prizes.

You get the tokens you need to break these tiles, often shaped like pickaxes, by hitting milestones in main events and tournaments, or by claiming daily bonuses like Daily Login rewards, Quick Wins, and free gifts from the shop. Each tile you break uses up one token, and since treasures are randomly placed for each player, you’ll need loads of tokens—hundreds or even thousands—to uncover all the treasures in the event.

Take the Galactic Treasures event from February as an example. Players collected Laser Gun tokens by participating in events like Galactic Adventures. With these tokens, they could dig for treasures and unlock great rewards, including loads of dice, Purple Sticker Packs, and the unique UFO player token.
