Halloween Update: Trick, Treat or Die Event
Off The Grid ushers in the Halloween spirit with its Trick, Treat or Die event active from October 17 to November 3 on all platforms. This update brings not only new cosmetics and map alterations but also specially designed challenges that aim to boost the gaming experience during this spooky season.
Exclusive Collections and Achievements
Throughout the Trick, Treat or Die event, players get the chance to search for 10 hidden Candy Bags across Teardrop Island. Successful scavengers unlocking all bags will be rewarded with the “Tooch Decayer” achievement and an exclusive Hell Sack Mask. The first player to complete this collection will be awarded the coveted Serial Number #1 of this mask, marking it as a rare collectible.
New Cosmetics through Halloween Hexes
The event introduces Halloween Hexes, which are unique, time-limited items that players can either find during matches or purchase with in-game currency. These hexes include the Psycho Mask, diverse Halloween-themed character sets, emotes, profile banners, avatars, and weapon skins, available only during this event period.
Feardrop Island Transformation
For the duration of the event, Teardrop Island will morph into Feardrop Island, a more ominous version of its usual self. This transformation includes innovations like a denser, burning fog, haunting sound effects, and skies dotted with pumpkin blimps, creating a spine-chilling atmosphere that impacts gameplay by introducing new visual elements.
Community Engagement and New Challenges
This update isn’t just about visual or collectible enhancement; it’s also about engaging the community with unique challenges. One notable challenge rewards players with the Sackrifice Mask after they’ve logged five active hours in voice chat, limited to the first 200 players, encouraging eager and timely participation.
Improvements and Patch Additions
Building on the updates from “Kill The Feed,” the Halloween patch offers further refinements and fixes to the game. Adjustments have been made to cyberlimb functions, zipline transitions have been smoothed out, and visual inconsistencies during various combat maneuvers have been fixed. The patch enhances map stability and performance, ensuring a more consistent gameplay experience.
Wrapping Up the Updates
As Off The Grid moves through its early access phase, it continues to evolve based on player feedback, refining and enhancing the gaming landscape. The Halloween Feardrop update promises an engaging and immersive environment filled with unique items and gameplay adjustments, enticing both neophytes and veterans to explore its eerie updates until they conclude on November 3.
