Blizzard is known for Overwatch’s seasonal events, which always bring exclusive game modes, cosmetics and more to the first-person shooter. This spooky season, Halloween Terror has returned to Overwatch, bringing back the Junkenstein’s Revenge PvE brawl and last year’s seasonal gear along with more than 50 new seasonal items. Hopefully you’re not too scared to read the rest of the details.
Junkenstein’s Revenge has been improved upon from last year. Originally featuring only four selectable heroes (McCree, Hanzo, Ana and Soldier 76), players can now choose from an expanded pool of characters: Ana, Genji, Hanzo, McCree, Soldier: 76, Torbjorn, Widowmaker and Zenyatta. Players can now also see how long they can withstand the AI in Junkenstein’s Endless mode.
If you missed Junkenstein’s accompanying achievements last year, players have been able to earn at least Survived the Night and Four They Were during this year’s event. As of this writing, we don’t yet have anyone who has unlocked the other two achievements, but due to their difficulty, it’s not unusual. Not only that, but 2017 brings an additional four achievements for players to earn:
