Halloween Selfie Winners!

During our Halloween event, we hosted a Selfie Competition. We had a Selfie Spot to the right of spawn, where you needed to take a selfie and spice it up. We had just under 100 submissions, which is crazy, thanks to everyone who submitted an entry. We announced our winners here, and you can see 1st place below!

Halloween Event

It couldn't have been October without our awesome Halloween event. It's sadly over now, but it was packed with spooky surprises. A Circus Hub with a Candyfloss hunt, new and returning maps, a new Zombie Bundle, and weekly spooky wardrobe drops, plus much more. If you missed it, you can view it here, and don't worry; most will return in 2027.
