Halloween in Verdansk

What can we expect from the Warzone Halloween event? The Haunting of Verdansk will run for two weeks, beginning October 20, and is set to make Warzone feel a little spooky. Actually, a lot spooky. Activision is going full-on Halloween by adding special modes and bundles based on the horror films Saw and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It’s a big update, and the COD Blog says “no operator is safe from the terrors of All Hallows’ Eve.” Well then.

Let’s dive in. Here’s what’s coming in The Haunting of Verdansk.

When does the Warzone Halloween event begin?

The Haunting of Verdansk was unveiled as part of the CoD: Warzone Season 6 roadmap, promising rewards, new limited-time modes, and more. The Warzone Halloween event begins on October 20 and ends on November 3.

Everything coming in The Haunting of Verdansk

Warzone’s first big seasonal event is infecting every part of Modern Warfare. In addition to some intriguing new modes in Warzone and Multiplayer, Haunting of Verdansk is dropping a payload of new cosmetics featuring official partnerships with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Saw.

Saw and Texas Chainsaw Massacre bundles are here

Haunting of Verdansk’s spotlight cosmetics is official bundles for Saw’s Billy and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’s Leatherface. Both bundles come with unique weapon blueprints, including Leatherface’s Family Heirloom FiNN LMG (outfitted with the XRK ChainSAW stock to look more like his weapon of choice) and a special throwing knife for Billy called The Phlebotomozier, “a special throwing knife will drill into your enemies upon impact.” Neat.

The third big bundle isn’t another recognizable horror villain. It’s all about a character named Dr. Karlov, an “infamous Verdansk urban legend that defines the regional Halloween folklore.” We’ll probably be learning more about his deal once the event kicks off.

Each of the three bundles cost 2400 CP

Zombie Royale lets you earn your life back as a zombie

As previously shown in audio leaks on Reddit, the new Zombie Royale mode will have defeated players dropped back into the map as zombies—no Gulag this time around. Zombie players can’t use weapons, but they have super speed, strong melee attacks, thermal vision, and enhanced jumps.

Sounds kind of like the more-produced version of the Infected mode from Multiplayer, but now in Warzone. Zombies will be able to earn their lives back by zombifying more players.
