Current and upcoming events

Spooky: the Halloween update (live now)

Spooky is the game’s seasonal content drop, tied to version 3.20.2. The headline change reworks the Trick or Treat heist to end in a boss fight, and it adds a set of new Halloween-themed cosmetics alongside the usual round of bug fixes and tuning. It went live on October 11 at 12:00 PM ET (9:00 AM PT, 4:00 PM UTC) and stays up through November 1.

The update has been running over a week in, with roughly over a week left left before it closes. It is the most-wanted item on the board, with over about 14,000 players interested — a shade ahead of the challenge event waiting behind it.

Shady Contracts weekly challenges

Shady Contracts are short, time-boxed challenge events built around what the crew treats as anomalous jobs: contracts of unknown origin that promise worthwhile cosmetic payouts but only stay open for a few days before expiring, with no guarantee of when the next one appears. In practice the developer has been running them on a steady weekly beat — Week 3 opened October 9, Week 4 on October 16, and Week 5 on October 23 — each set live from Friday afternoon into the early hours of Monday.

Week 5 opens October 23 at 12:00 PM ET (9:00 AM PT, 4:00 PM UTC) and runs through the early morning of October 26, with over about 14,000 players already interested. If you want the rewards, it is worth jumping in early in the window, since these sets close quickly once they start.
