Mission: Halloween Haunt

Commanders!

The Halloween festivities are here and it is once again time to celebrate.



Here’s a mission that might appear scary but is anything but, especially when you run it with a team of friends – after all, trouble shared is trouble halved. Between October 31 and November 3, 2024 (21:59 CET/23:59 MSK):

  • Win the Lone Star Special Operation once to receive the Pumpkin avatar
  • Win the Lone Star Special Operation 5 times to receive the Deathbringer camouflage


And, as usual, the prizes will be handed out after the end of the event.

See you on the battlefield!
