 |
This article is about Dead Harvest, a seasonal event run by the Foxhole developers around Halloween. Check this article for information about the event, and check the latest foxhole official announcements[1] to see if the Dead Harvest event will be occurring soon. |
Dead Harvest is an event which takes place around Halloween every year. When the event is running, Mechanized Utility Vehicles and Cursed Zombies are added to the game. Each Faction has figured out how to weaponize the Cursed, and use them to augment their armies against the enemy. Creating Cursed, Avartachs, and Balor Spawn with different types of Soulstone, each having a different attack and damage system. Players fight against each other as usual, but may change into a zombie to fight in that form.
History[ | ]
Dead Harvest was initially run in 2018, where it was more cooperative than it is now. Taking place on an early version of Tempest Island, the first version of Dead Harvest made both teams work together against a zombie horde. When a player died, they joined the zombie horde. Zombies who lived longer and got more kills would evolve, gaining more health, speed, and damage with each kill. The second version, run in 2019, saw the Cursed trying to take over the mainland by creating an Endless Night by taking over and cursing Forts around the map.
