It’s that time of the year again for Overwatch as this year’s annual Halloween Terror event is now live on PC, Xbox One, and PS4. You have from October 14 to November 4 to earn all the new cosmetics and succeed in the new challenges added to the game.

Junkenstein’s Revenge returns once again and it’s a 4-player co-op mode that tasks players to survive waves of enemies with heroes fixed for the game mode. Since this is an event that comes back every year, the community is aware of the game mode and the developers have added Challenge Missions to really test the players and give a bit of a twist each week.

Here’s what to expect in the coming weeks as this year, Junkenstein’s Revenge will release two challenge missions per week, for a total of six. We also have Baptiste and Ashe available for Junkenstein’s Revenge.

Week 1: Vengeful Ghost, Frenzied Stampede

  • A deadly ghost chases players

  •  Zomnics move faster

Week 2: Volatile Zomnics, Three They Were

  • Zomnics explode near players

  • Only 3 players but they deal more damage

 Week 3: Mystery Swap, Shocking Surprise

  • Some enemies spawn Shock-Tires on death

The Halloween Terror event also includes additional Weekly Challenges that can be completed in Quick Play, Competitive, and Arcade mode to earn this event’s unique sprays, player icons, and new epic skins. It’s pretty simple as all you have to do is…win.
