Minecraft
The OG Minecraft game, or, in other words, Minecraft! The world’s most popular game, an open world creative sandbox of epic proportions, is quite the household name nowadays, and the Minecraft brand is celebrating Halloween in a number of ways.
Minecraft Dungeons
Taking things down half a notch,Minecraft Dungeonsis celebrating the spooky season with their Spooky Fall Event, which will begin October 26 and last until the end of November 3, 2020. During the event, Seasonal Trials will offer unique challenges for players to overcome, in exchange for exclusive, limited-time rewards. There will also be a new Night Mode, further adding to the challenge by turning all the lights off. Be sure to put in the time to secure the rare gear before the event ends.
Minecraft Earth
Finally, we haveMinecraft Earth, the often forgotten mobile AR sibling of Minecraft. Minecraft Earth is entering the most spooky of times with the new Boo! Spooky! Season, featuring new challenges and rewards. Three new mobs are also coming to the game, between the witch, viler witch, and climbing zombie, adding to the already very expansive list of mob variants that Minecraft Earth can boast.

Minecraft Dungeons is the next saga in Minecraft’s story, and Mojang Studios have knocked another one out of the park. Awesome co-op combat paired with powerful loot, all at a crazy affordable price? There’s not much more you could ask for in an epic dungeon crawling ARPG.
