Acclaimed developer Lion Games invites players to experience a sweet and spooky Halloween celebration in the world of epic anime MMORPG SoulWorker, with special events hosted in-game and on social media. The free-to-play action game, which celebrated its first anniversary of global service earlier this month, launches this jam-packed seasonal update today.
The celebration kicks off in-game on Thursday, Oct. 21 with the “Moonlight Party” maze event, where any players above level 30 can fight their way to a truly spooky final boss, the Halloween Pumpkin Witch. The maze is designed as an easy course, allowing players to simply enjoy the experience.
Players who successfully complete the “Moonlight Party” maze will receive special event currency:
- Halloween Costume Coins, which players can use to purchase special costumes inspired by ghosts, will-of-the-wisps, pumpkins and other familiar Halloween figures;
- Candy Baskets, which can be traded for various useful items.
For players looking for a more difficult challenge, the “Scary Daydream” maze will also be available. Players over level 72 can enter the maze through the Golden Citadel to conquer its obstacles and collect large amounts of Zenny.
The SoulWorker Halloween update also makes available to purchase several limited-edition costumes:
- “Sacred Judgment,” styled after nobles and priests;
- “Nightmarish Incubus” and “Nightmarish Succubus;”
- “Royalty in the Pale Night” and “Hunters in the Pale Night;”
- “Trick or Treat.”
For the first time ever, players will be able to outfit these costumes on new sniper character Lee Nabi, who arrived in the game in July.
Additionally, special Halloween A.R. Transmitters and What’ll We Pick Cubes will be on sale throughout the celebration. Players looking to outfit their My Rooms with Halloween flair can also purchase the Gothic and Halloween furniture packages at 50 percent off their original prices.
The celebration also offers special participation bonuses to help players grow their SoulWorker characters at a faster rate. Users who log in from Oct. 28-29 and Nov. 2-3 will receive Upgrade +100 percent, EXP +50 percent and Zenny +50 percent buffs. From Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, users will receive EXP +30 percent, Zenny +100 percent and Drop Rate +100 percent.
The Halloween festivities are under way on social media, as well, offering a chance for the most dedicated players to win special in-game items. The main attraction is the second season of SoulWorker: Crime Scene, which runs on official social accounts through Wednesday, Oct. 27. In this special social media story challenge, players must decipher from six different hints to solve two all-new SoulWorker mysteries.
During the event, four randomly selected commenters will receive the special Halloween furniture package. Those who successful solve the mysteries will receive two Random Dye Eyedroppers for the first story and three A.R. Transmitters for the second.
Players can also strut their stuff in a Halloween-themed fashion contest by uploading screenshots of their SoulWorker characters in Halloween attire to Steam. At 200 screenshots posted, all accounts will receive the in-game item “Chloe Above Head.”
More information regarding these special Halloween events can be found at the game’s official Steam page and Lion Games’ social media channels.
