Psyonix are once again getting into the Halloween season with Rocket League‘s Haunted Hallows Event. While the game has seen Halloween crossovers before with Ghostbusters and Stranger Things, this time around, Psyonix is enlisting the services this year of Saw, Child’s Play, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Trick ‘r Treat.
Available now, horror icons Billy The Puppet, Chucky, Leatherface, and Sam are now available in Rocket League, alongside new Event Challenges with horror-themed items, a collection of scary new content in the Item Shop, a new spooky Arena variant, two Limited Time Modes (LTMs), and Golden Pumpkins.
Players will be able to complete Event Challenges to unlock items themed after iconic horror villains such as the Billy The Puppet Decal, Jigsaw Blade Wheels, Chucky Doll Decal, Good Guys Wheel, Leatherface’s Mask Decal, Leatherface’s Chainsaw Wheel, Sam’s Trick Decal, and Sam’s Treat Wheel. Additional Challenge rewards will be Halloween-themed items and Golden Pumpkins (Golden Pumpkins will unlock items from Velocity, Triumph, and Auriga Item Series).
The Rocket League Item Shop is now host to The Billy The Puppet Goal Explosion, Hello Zepp Player Anthem, Chucky’s Laugh Player Anthem, Leatherface’s Chainsaw Player Anthem, Trick or Treat Player Anthem (Music by Douglas Pipes), John Carpenter’s iconic Halloween theme as a Player Anthem, and Muse’s song “You Make Me Feel Like It’s Halloween” as a Player Anthem will be available in the Item Shop for the duration of the event. The Billy The Puppet Goal Explosion will be priced at 800 Credits, while the Player Anthems will be priced at 300 Credits each.
As for the Arena Variant, the Farmstead Arena has gotten a spooky makeover for the upcoming Haunted Hallows event. Finally, for the new Limited Time Modes, you have the Spooky Cube and Heatseeker. Super Cube messes with mutators and changes the maximum speed, bounciness, and shape of the ball, which is now a cube shaped Jack-o’-Lantern. In addition, Heatseeker will also be returning for Haunted Hallows. Spooky Cube will be available from October 19 to October 26, while Heatseeker will be available from October 26 until November 1.
Haunted Hallows itself will be live in Rocket League from October 19 until November 1. You can play Rocket League via the Nintendo Switch, the Epic Games Store on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
