Updated July 17, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 260K playing now

The Aliens Revenge has wrapped up in 99 Nights in the Forest. The limited event ran from June 27 to July 11, 2026, adding a stretch of new content to Grandma’s Favourite Games’ survival hit before making way for the next drop on the schedule. If you logged in during those two weeks, this is what it covered; if you missed it, here’s the recap.

The event landed on one of Roblox’s busiest games. 99 Nights in the Forest holds over a quarter of a million players at once and has drawn more than 28 billion visits since launch, with over 8.6 million players marking it a favorite. The Aliens Revenge itself pulled a large audience, with more than 1.4 million players flagging interest before it went live.

A returning alien-themed event in the survival game 99 Nights in the Forest, with further details on its content still to be revealed.

What the event included

The developer kept the details deliberately thin, teasing only that “the Aliens are back” and promising more information once the event opened. Beyond that brief tease and the “Revenge” in its name, Grandma’s Favourite Games didn’t spell out what shape the content would take, layered on top of the game’s usual forest survival loop. It was tagged as a new-content event rather than a full release, which fit its scope: a timed addition to keep regulars busy, not a relaunch of the game.

When it ran

The Aliens Revenge opened on June 27, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET and closed on July 11, 2026 at 7:45 AM ET — a run of just about two weeks. The card above lists that window across the major world time zones, so you can see exactly where the start and end fell for your region. As a mid-length limited event, it gave players plenty of runway to work through whatever it added without the crunch of a weekend-only drop.

How it fit the game’s rhythm

99 Nights in the Forest runs a near-continuous chain of timed events, and The Aliens Revenge slotted neatly into it. It followed The Forest Wakes Up, which had run in mid-June, and it handed off directly to The Dino Kid Update — that one went live the same day The Aliens Revenge ended, on July 11, and continued through late July. The Bee MINI Biome is set to follow at the end of the month, running July 25 to August 1. The takeaway for players: this game rarely goes quiet, with a fresh event landing roughly every couple of weeks, so a missed one is usually followed quickly by the next.
