Halloween has arrived in several live service games, and players can jump into themed events right now without waiting for the holiday itself. From haunted maps to limited time rewards, here is a look at nine titles currently running Halloween 2026 celebrations.

Fortnite brings back its familiar mix of spooky cosmetics and map changes, with new challenges that reward players for exploring altered locations. Overwatch 2 continues its seasonal tradition with a fresh set of skins and a cooperative mode that pits teams against waves of unsettling enemies. Apex Legends offers a darkened battle royale experience with legend skins and a limited time mode that leans into the eerie atmosphere.

Destiny 2 welcomes guardians back to the haunted forest style activity, where candy collecting and mask wearing remain central to the grind. Call of Duty delivers its annual Halloween event with themed playlists and operator bundles, while Dead by Daylight celebrates the season with in game events and cosmetic unlocks tied to its horror roots.

Rocket League adds Halloween themed items and a special arena variant, and Fall Guys rounds things out with costumed obstacles and festive rounds. Each event runs for a limited window, so players hoping to earn the seasonal rewards should check the in game timers before the celebrations wrap up.
