We are getting dangerously close to the end of October and that means that the Halloween It is just around the corner. Although it is clear that its arrival in Europe is the work of globalization, this holiday is already famous throughout the world and video games are not alien to it. In fact, many titles jump on the pumpkin wagon to make special events.
And taking advantage of this, in 3D PC Games we have decided to select 11 Halloween events that are happening in some of the most important video games of the moment on PC. We have looked at those that at least introduce relevant characteristics and do not remain only skins and decorative objects, something that for example happens in the case of New World, the MMO from Amazon Games.
Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War
Call of Duty Warzone and Black Ops Cold War celebrate an interesting Halloween event called The Haunting, with many surprises. Until November 2, shooters players will be able to enjoy special content. For example, Scream, the popular horror character, is available as an Operator Pack for a limited time, just like Rambo. Donnie Darko is also ready in another bundle and both cost 2400 COD points.
Beyond that, the highlight is Ghosts of Verdansk, a game mode very similar to the one we were able to enjoy last year around this time. Instead of zombies we fight ghosts with supernatural abilities that make things really difficult for us. By the way, the LAPA submachine gun is the final reward if you complete all the special challenges.
Fortnite
“Nightmare Before the Tempest” is the Halloween event in Fortnite, which is being really big. It will last until November 1 and has introduced new maps, cosmetics, tons of new skins, characters from The Walking Dead and has even held its first PvE tournament. Although all these things have happened, there are still days to enjoy Halloween in the battle royale.
Overwatch
New legendary skins and the return of the game mode Junkenstein’s Revenge is what Overwatch offers this year. That PvE mode is what we all know as a horde mode and it takes place in Junkenstein Castle. This mode has always been a part of Halloween in the game and players have to survive waves of enemies. In addition, there are special missions of this holiday that are back. Everything will be available until November 2.
Apex legends
The Apex Legends shooter is also joining the horror party and you have to fight monsters on the Arena Bis map.
