Halloween, Christmas & Seasonal Rewards Update

The holidays have reached Fort Duskfall. Unfortunately, so have 5,000 mandatory Christmas presents and an unreasonable number of armed jack-o’-lanterns.

🎃 Halloween Event

The Halloween event runs every year from October 17 at 10:00 AM Central through November 17.

• Added 30 unique candy buckets hidden throughout Fort Duskfall

• Candy-bucket locations are spread across the entire base

• Each unique bucket can only count once per event

• Progress is shared across Play Mode and Challenge Mode

🎄 Christmas Event

The Christmas event runs every year from December 10 at 10:00 AM Central through January 10.

• All zombie types wear Santa hats during the event

• Zombies drop collectible presents when killed

🏆 Seasonal Rewards

• Added 10 seasonal challenges

• Added 10 matching player titles

• Halloween and Christmas each receive a different reward set every year through 2030

• Rewards follow a five-year cycle and begin returning in 2031

• If you already own both returning rewards, completing the event challenge awards five Weapon Tokens instead

• Returning rewards or Weapon Tokens are only awarded after completing the event requirements

• Seasonal rewards are permanently owned once earned

🎨 Career Menu

• Added dedicated SEASONAL sections to the Camo and Title menus

• Earned seasonal rewards remain visible and equippable after the event ends

• Missed Weapon Effects remain visible in grayscale with their missed season and year

• Locked seasonal title names and descriptions remain classified

• Missed rewards can be earned when their five-year cycle returns

📅 Seasonal Event Panel

• Added a seasonal event panel beneath Daily Challenges

• The panel appears seven days before each event begins

• Upcoming events display a countdown until activation

• Active events display their objectives, saved progress, rewards, and remaining time

• The panel automatically disappears after the event ends

• Event schedules use verified Steam time instead of the computer’s local clock

🔔 Rewards & Notifications

• Seasonal rewards are granted immediately when their challenge is completed

• Added unlock notifications for seasonal Weapon Effects, titles, and Weapon Tokens

• Reward notifications now wait until the After Action Report closes instead of appearing behind it

• Tutorial tips are dismissed when the After Action Report opens and won’t be incorrectly marked as viewed

When Halloween arrives, check behind everything. When Christmas arrives, cancel your other plans. Command wants 5,000 presents, and Command has never heard of work-life balance.
