Halloween Ingame Events 2024

Abiotic Factor - “The Cult of Canaan“ Halloween Update

The retro survival shooter mix is incredibly popular with the community and has been given a pretty big Halloween update on October 10, in which you can go through a new portal to the spooky shores of Canaan ... and the best thing is, the content of the update is permanent and not just limited to the spooky season.

This new overworld region seems to be even nastier than the facility itself. There seems to be a sinister secret beneath the already unpleasant-looking surface. This means a lot of exploring, fighting monsters and having odd conversations with the local inhabitants. And of course there are also a few pumpkins for the perfect Halloween mood.

Quick facts about the update:

• “Canaan” as a new (spooky) region
• New weapons and enemies
• More lore and extended story
• New options for fishing
• Terrifying secrets to discover
• New Halloween recipes
• New placeable objects
• And more …

You can also find all information about the update in detail on the game's Steam page.
