[PC][PS][Xbox] Crossout: Festival of fire

Halloween is once again at the gates of your hangars, survivors! This year there will be plenty of fun: the “Witch hunt” brawl will be replaced by 3 unique modes! And you’ll be able to produce a variety of things on the traditional event workbench, from unique cosmetics to upgraded parts.

“Festival of fire” event

Attention! The event will be available from October 26 to November 6 inclusive!

Main features of the event:

• During the event, players will have access to 3 special brawls.
• Each brawl will be available for 4 days without interruption.
• Only 1 brawl is available at a time.
• By participating in these brawls, players will be able to earn a special event resource — “Tricky treats”.
• In addition to brawls, “Tricky treats” can also be earned in the special PvP mission “Trick or Treat?”.
• “Tricky treats” as well as other resources can be used to produce numerous thematic cosmetic items, a “Witch’s sticker container” as well as 1 “Help of the spirits” container from which you can choose 1 tradable epic item.
• In addition, you can produce a number of already upgraded parts pre-determined upgrades on the event workbench. To do this, you will need 2 such parts without any upgrades, as well as a certain amount of resources.

Event brawls

Adrenaline

• The battle format is “free for all”.
• Players take part in the brawl on their own armoured vehicles.
• The vehicles must not have the following parts: explosive spears, “Aegis-Prime”, and the “Werewolf” cabin.
• Victory condition: take place from 1 to 4 at the end of the battle.
• Placement ranking is based on the number of destroyed enemies.
• Each player has an active “adrenaline” meter, the level of which gradually decreases.
• As long as the adrenaline level doesn’t drop to 0, the player can return to battle after being destroyed. Once the meter has dropped to 0, further return to battle is impossible.
• You can replenish your current level of “adrenaline” by destroying enemies and collecting bonuses that remain from their cars.
• Occasionally, an amplification bonus will appear at a random place on the location, which increases the characteristics of your armoured car, as well as the adrenaline level. The bonus disappears if the armoured car gets destroyed.
• Once you reach a certain number of eliminated players or after a certain amount of time has passed, the “adrenaline” level starts to go down faster.
• In addition to “Tricky treats”, players can also earn “Plastic” in this brawl as a reward.

Firefight

• Team brawl. Players take part in the battle on pre-built vehicles.
• Objective: destroy the armoured vehicles of the opposing team within the allotted time.
• If a team destroys the opposing team before the allotted time expires, this team wins. Otherwise, it’s a draw.
• Each player is given an armoured vehicle on hovers, which has a number of vulnerable points, as well as a number of places that are completely invulnerable.
• To destroy the enemy, you need to accurately shoot at his vulnerable spots and manage to defend your vehicle, using your invulnerable points.
• In addition to “Tricky treats”, players can also earn “Batteries” in this brawl as a reward.

Deadly ritual

• The battle format is “free for all”.
• Players take part in the brawl on their own armoured vehicles.
• The vehicles must not have the following parts: explosive spears, “Aegis-Prime”, and the “Werewolf” cabin.
• Victory condition: take place from 1 to 4 at the end of the battle.
• Placement ranking is based on the number of destroyed enemies.
• Initially, the player has the ability to return to the battle 3 times after being destroyed.
• In the first minute of the battle, special totems appear on the location. Each collected totem is an additional opportunity to return to the battle after destruction.
• After the first minute, the bonuses stop appearing on the map. The only chance to increase the number of “respawns” is to get a special totem in the very center of the location, which will give you 2 chances to return to the battle at once.
• The battle ends when the timer runs out or when only one player remains alive.
• In addition to “Tricky treats”, players can also earn “Scrap metal” in this brawl as a reward.
