“Midnight Harvest” Event Coming October 23 for Roguelike ‘Harvest Hunt’ [Trailer]

Obviously, given the subject matter with Neonhive Games’ debut title Harvest Hunt, it’s kind of a no-brainer that we’d be getting a Halloween-themed event. That’s coming your way next week, when Harvest Hunt unveils its feature-packed free Midnight Harvest Halloween update, which brings “game-changing” new abilities, Halloween cosmetics, and most excitingly, a new Challenge Mode on October 23.

Running from October 23rd to November 4th, the Midnight Harvest event adds two new powers to the Harvest Hunt‘s tarot-inspired “Whispers” system, which if you didn’t know, tasks you with crafting your defence from a constantly resetting deck of debilitating calamities and sometimes blessings. Vigor Drain ensures that you’re constantly moving, as your health depletes with every passing second with this power. Meanwhile, No Exit guarantees you’ll be trapped fending for your life unless you can find a key and unlock your way out.

Luckily, you’ve got a brand new tool at your disposal with the Repellent. A shrunken skull with bulging eyes, this talisman can protect you from a single Devourer attack. Of course, your rusted old favourites make a return, with classic tools sporting creepy new cosmetic skins. As an added touch, you can inspect your tools at any time in-game with bespoke animations created for every single tool.

In order to get them, however, you need to complete Harvest Hunt‘s new challenge mode, delivering a weekly bounty of three objectives – ominously dubbed “Rites” – to overcome. Reap the rewards of a successful harvest and you’ll earn tokens to snatch the skins for yourself.

Harvest Hunt: Midnight Harvest is available now PC via Steam. And if you haven’t joined the hunt just yet, you can buy Harvest Hunt with a massive 30% discount as part of Steam Scream Fest 2024 between October 28th and November 4th.
