Evony players are now able to obtain one of the greatest monarchs in Cambodian history, Jayavarman, by purchasing the Carnival packages
Evony: The King’s Return regularly introduces new Generals to the game and even though most Generals can be procured for free, some can only be collected with real money.
On Friday, 23 February 2024, the new Epic Historic General, Jayavarman, made his appearance in Evony.
Jayavarman II founded the first centralized monarchy in the history of Cambodia. Since he left a profound impact on future generations, he is considered one of the greatest monarchs in Cambodian history.
Similarly to other Generals, Jayavarman has various abilities that you can use to advance in the game.
The following table lists his abilities at max level:
Name | Description |
Mounted Troop Defense |
|
Strike |
|
Mounted Troop Ares |
|
King of Lower Chenia |
|
Before you can use these skills, you have to procure Jayavarman. During the Carnival Celebration event, players can purchase 5 package tiers every day which contain massive resources and rare items.
There is also a chance that you will receive Jayavarman from the 5th tier package.

Can you acquire Jayavarman II for free?
Unfortunately, the only way that Monarchs can get Jayavarman II is by purchasing the Carnival Week packages.
To purchase the package, players can open the Carnival Celebration menu and click on the “Buy” icon, which is at the bottom of the menu.
Players have to follow the given instructions to complete the purchase, but keep in mind that you may have to provide your financial details before you can purchase the package.
Once you have completed the package, you will instantly receive the items.
Keep in mind that you may have to purchase the different tier packages to get a chance at obtaining Jayavarman II.
That being said, there is no guarantee that you will receive Jayavarman, even if you purchase the 5th tier packages.
Do you have to collect Jayavarman?
As previously mentioned, there are several Generals that you can acquire for free in Evony. Players therefore do not have to purchase a General in order to progress in the game.
Though it is worth noting that the free Generals are not as powerful as the Generals that can only be procured with real money.
Monarchs are still able to play the game normally if they decide not to purchase the Carnival packages to obtain Jayavarman.
