Halloween is back in Dying Light 2: Stay Human. Patch 1.30 kicks off the new Halloween Showdown 2026, bringing a spooky atmosphere to Villedor, a three-week community event, new rewards and more reasons for both new and returning players to face the fear of the night.
Running from October 26 until November 16, Halloween Showdown 2026 is a three-week community event built around monster rivalries and player choice. For starters, Villedor has transformed for Halloween, with Día de los Muertos-inspired decorations across the open world and a more traditional Halloween atmosphere in Tower Raid. Halloween-themed enemies also return, making the seasonal takeover more than just a visual change.
But the main draw is that each week, two Halloween creatures face off in a new matchup. Players hunt special enemies, collect Showdown Candies across Villedor and donate them at Baka’s Shop outside the Bazaar to support their chosen side.
By contributing to weekly goals, players can earn a collection of new Psychic weapons, while the monster that receives the most support determines the exclusive Charm available at the end of that week. Reaching both weapon goals allows players to unlock the two main rewards.
To top it off, Dying Light 2: Stay Human will also be featured in major platform promotions and special offers during the Halloween period, with discounts of up to 80%.
Dying Light 2 is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
