Champions Online is holding a Halloween costume contest this Friday, October 30th, and this time heroes enter as a group. Developers will judge the entries live on stream, and everyone who takes part goes home with a new title.
How the contest works
The contest takes place at the Powerhouse Theater. Judging starts at 3:30pm PT and the contest gets underway at 4pm PT. Players who don’t want to take part can watch the whole thing on the Cryptic Studios Twitch channel.
This month’s theme is Trick-or-Treat Group. Teams of up to five players are asked to put together matching Halloween-themed looks. Cryptic suggests classic trick-or-treat costumes or monstrous creatures as starting points, but anything that fits the spooky season is fair game. It’s a good excuse to raid the costume options with a few friends or supergroup mates before Friday.
Prizes and the after party
Cryptic will pick three winners and ten honorable mentions. Two reward bundles are on the list:
- Five Contest Coins, a Contest Heroic Voucher, a Contest Special Voucher, a Contest Voucher and the unique title “Night Terror”
- Five Contest Coins and two Contest Vouchers
Taking part is enough to earn something: every participant receives the title “Trick-or-Treater”, whether or not their group places.
Once the judging is done, there’s an after party where players can pick up more Contest Coins, plus one Contest Premium Coin. Contest Coins and Contest Vouchers are spent at the Dev Vendor in the Recognition building in Millennium City.
The contest runs alongside the Blood Moon event, which is in its third week with Takofanes the Undying in Millennium City and lasts until Tuesday, November 10th. That makes Friday a busy night for Halloween in Champions Online.
