October is upon us once again, and that means it’s time for Halloween-themed everything in all our games. As such, Blizzard has just teased the next Halloween Terror event in Overwatch through a short clip posted on Twitter. It’s pretty cryptic, to say the least, and doesn’t give players a whole lot of information.

Halloween Terror begins on October 9 and will, of course, include a special spooky themed adventure as well as exclusive skins for some of your favorite characters. Overwatch fans were already feeling the Halloween hype as soon the clock struck October 1 and are itching for more details from Blizzard.
Features from previous Halloween Terror events include:
- Halloween-themed decorated maps.
- Exclusive PvE mode Junkenstein’s Revenge. During this story mode, a band of “adventurers” taken from Overwatch’s character roster battled against the Witch of the Wilds and Dr. Junkenstein.
- A new batch of legendary skins, which will cost 3000 credits each.
- Players can also purchase skins from previous Halloween events at a cheaper rate.
- The map Eichenwalde received a new Halloween look during 2017’s Halloween Terror event.
Fun Fact: during last years event, there was a whopping total of 50 seasonal items released. Included in this were several legendary skins such as Reaper’s Dracula skin, Van Helsing McCree, Dragon Symmetra, and the Cthulhu-themed Cultist Zenyatta. Players were all over these skins. More detailed info is sure to be released before October 9. The event runs from October 9-31, so don’t miss your chance to get some of these exclusive items and skins. Happy Halloween, Overwatch fans!
