It’s October again, and as any Overwatch fan knows, that means it’s time for another Halloween Terror event.
This year’s Halloween Terror 2021 event is now live, introducing new sprays, icons, skins, and of course, the return of Junkenstein’s Revenge. Like in previous Halloween-inspired events, this year’s Halloween Terror will task players with playing 27 Quick Play, Arcade, or Competitive Play games each week for three weeks.
After completing nine games, players will earn a new spray, a new icon after 18 games, and finally, a new skin after playing 27 games. Winning a game counts as two games played, so strive to win each match to make quick work of these numbers.
