Heroes of Valor News

Hello Heroes!

Hope you are all having a spooky ol time in the game. :D

We've got a little bonus update for you today with 4 new creepy faces.

The small scars can be unlocked at level 13 (see what we did there? ːsteammockingː ) while the Termin... excuse me.. Machine Face and Two-f... uh.. Scorched Face can be unlocked with 25 pumpkins!

The time has come...

to get... SPOOKY!!!

Ghosts, monsters and scientists with a mind not set on inventing new green energy but rather unholy creations have descended down upon the world of Heroes of Valor.


[h2]The horrors of Rusty River[/h2]

Night has fallen over the cozy little town of Rusty River and turned it into a place of nightmares.

Take a stroll through the creepy streets to spot all the glow in the dark monsters, find the Halloween candy posters or meet Nelson the river spirit.

But beware! You might get more than your bargained for. :o




[h2]Doctors & Monsters[/h2]



Introducing this year's Halloween Heroes!

Meet Dr. Krankenstein and Dr. Brainington. Two mad scientists that are about as batsh... "pardon my language there* crazy as they come.

Scientists aren't your cup of tea? No problem, how about a terrifying Ghoul or a bone chilling Skeleton?

Whatever your macabre taste, there's surely something for everyone to clench that bloody thirst for eerie fashion.



Make sure you head on over to the Doctors & Monsters event pass to see what you can unlock with the skull token!


[h2]An all new event menu[/h2]
We also overhauled the token pouch and turned it into a fully fledged event menu.

And as you can see you can now select which token you want to grind towards, be it this year's new skull token or last year's older pumpkin token. The choice is yours!



Anyway, enough talk. It's time to enter the slaughter house!

So grab yourself a pumpkin spice latte and a candy cone or two and prepare for scare-tastic combat in

Hello heroes! ːsteamhappyː

As the cold slowly takes over the land and the leaves on the trees begin to change their palette into beautiful tints of orange, red and yellow the world of Heroes of Valor also enters the autumn season.

To celebrate this cozy season we've added a new map to the game that captures all the vibes of autumn. And what better way to experience fall than near a waterfall!











Check out Rusty River in-game now and take in some relaxing autumn vibes. Take a stroll through town or one of the small parks. Perhaps a walk along the river is more your thing? Take a breather near a majestic waterfall or pay your respects to the dearly departed at the graveyard. Plenty of places to discover!

See you on the Battlefield!
