'Crossout' (ALL) Rolls Out Halloween Content Update

by Rainier on Oct. 16, 2018 @ 8:40 a.m. PDT

Set in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by an alien invasion and human genetic testing gone awry, Crossout is a new team based multiplayer vehicle combat game.

Crossout tests players’ creativity in building, upgrading and customizing deadly armored vehicles to destroy enemies in open player vs player combat.

No two vehicles in Crossout are the same, as players can create any kind of combat vehicle from the speediest buggy to the heaviest of off-road vehicles to reflect their warrior sense of gameplay. Offering complete customization, Crossout gives players thousands of possibilities to design their vehicle, including shape, armor, weapons, support systems and, cosmetic enhancements. Visit your own garage to build new advanced mechanisms and sell them via the in-game auction system. 

Players also have multiple options when it comes to mass destruction - combat vehicles can be equipped with an explosive range of weapons from chainsaws, power drills and machine guns, to rocket launchers, flying drones and stealth generators. Featuring an advanced damage model, destroy any part of an enemy machine and it will affect that vehicle's performance.

Targem Games and Gaijin Entertainment are celebrating Halloween in the post-apocalyptic online action game Crossout. From October 16th until November 1st, players can craft unique decorative items for their Crossout vehicles by collecting “Tricky treats” through in-game tasks. Items like a crazy exhaust and the hearse horn will not only instill fear in the enemy's hearts, but also increase the amount of experience a player earns while using his vehicle in battle.

The first mission that offers “Tricky treats” as a reward is the “Witch Hunt” brawl, where players scramble to take possession of a garland of creepy balloons. Once attached to their vehicle, they become the “Witch” the other players are after, and need to remain in control of the garland for as long as possible. With everyone sporting the same, specifically designed vehicle without weapons, capturing the garland is done through driving skills alone, by ramming the current owner. The map where the event takes place offers plenty of room for ambushes from every possible angle, and only the best will manage to keep the garland long enough to achieve victory. 

Those that rather prefer to solve problems with the help of a trusty gun or cannon head for the PvP mission “Trick or Treat!”, where it’s all about converting cars to scrap metal. Those survivors that can trash the most enemies will receive the most “Tricky treats” as a reward after the match. 

And no one can ever have enough “Tricky treats”! There are 23 decorative items, unique colors and stickers for vehicles available for the sought after dangerous treats in the Halloween shop. Players can proudly mount their hard-earned Halloween items on their vehicle and show them off in battle, or grab some serious coin by selling them to other players on the in-game market.

Key Features:

  • Unique vehicles, crafted by the players using a wide range of available parts: from nimble buggies to heavily tracked off-road vehicles or combat platforms on antigrav fields.
  • Complete freedom of creativity and thousands of possible combinations. Create vehicles of any shape using dozens of parts, wide variety of armour and weapons as well as support systems.
  • Advanced damage model: destroy any part of an enemy machine and it will affect the vehicle's performance immediately.
  • Huge arsenal of weapons. From chain saws, power-drills over machine guns to rocket launchers, flying drones and stealth generators.
  • Your own workshop: create new, advanced parts and auction them at the in-game marketplace.
  • Trading options between players: every piece that you have gethered in the battle can be sold to other players
  • Choose your own battle strategy! The only thing matters is the Survival and Victory!

Crossout is now available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
