Wanted Events Schedule: Halloween Update Countdown and What’s Next

Updated October 30, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 7,600 playing now

Wanted is a cops-and-robbers sandbox from DevvGames set in Oasis City, where you can carve out a career as a daring bank robber or take the other side and bring criminals to justice. It has pulled in more than about 150,000,000 visits and about 620,000 favorites, and it typically holds around about 7,600 players in a session at once — enough to keep it among Roblox’s busier crime experiences.

The headline event as of November 13 is the Halloween Update, a seasonal overhaul that went live on October 17, 2026 and is scheduled to run into the early hours of November 7, with DevvGames’ next update set to begin that same day. It sends players into the badlands to fight zombies, adds two new vehicles and a new quest, and swaps in a fall map with a hidden secret. The exact start and end times are listed in the schedule below, and we keep this page current as Wanted’s schedule changes.

Current and upcoming events

The Halloween Update, live through November 7

The Halloween Update is the centerpiece event right now. It began October 17, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET (12:00 PM CT, 10:00 AM PT, 6:00 PM BST) and is scheduled to close in the early hours of November 7, leaving about a week and a half on the clock. The seasonal build sends players into the badlands to battle waves of zombies for bones, adds the new Reaper and Rattler vehicles, introduces a Ghost Bag quest, and brings in a fall-themed map that DevvGames says hides a big secret. Interest has been strong, with about 45,000 players marking themselves as going.

Up next: a new update on November 7

Wanted’s next update is already on the calendar, scheduled to begin November 7, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET (12:00 PM CT, 10:00 AM PT, 6:00 PM GMT) — picking up the same day the Halloween event bows out that morning. DevvGames has set it as the game’s next drop with the full feature list still unannounced, though it has teased a new car and a set of bag skins as part of the update. It is scheduled to run through November 15, 2026, and the exact start time is in the schedule above.

The Money Laundering Update, now ended

Before the Halloween event took over, DevvGames ran the Money Laundering Update from October 4 through October 9, 2026. It opened a new Laundromat and added a money-laundering feature for passive income, brought in the Trackstar vehicle, raised the carrying bag’s capacity, and made sweeping changes to the map. It drew more than 40,000 interested players across its five-day window before wrapping up.

How Wanted plays

Away from the timed events, the core loop stays the same: earn cash and complete missions to unlock faster cars, stronger weapons, and a bigger base. Every crime you pull off raises your wanted level and puts a bounty on your head, which is where the cops-and-robbers tension comes from — and there are secrets scattered around Oasis City for players who go looking.
