DEVOUR Halloween Event 2026 — Pumpkin Robe & 1.5x XP
The DEVOUR Halloween 2026 event runs until November 3: find 70 pumpkins across all 7 maps to unlock the Pumpkin Robe, plus a 1.5x XP boost.
The annual DEVOUR Halloween event is live now and runs until November 3rd, 02:00 PT. This page covers the two rewards, the v6.0.33/v6.0.34 bug you should know about, and the fastest way to sweep the 70 pumpkins.

Rewards
Pumpkin Robe
Find the 70 Halloween pumpkins hidden across all 7 maps to unlock the Pumpkin Robe. Once unlocked, you keep the robe permanently — it stays wearable after the event ends.
Already unlocked it in a previous year? You now keep the robe without re-collecting pumpkins on newer maps. You can still hunt pumpkins for fun, but it is not required.
1.5x XP boost
A 1.5x EXP boost is active for the entire event. If you have been putting off grinding perks or cult ranks, this is the window — the boost ends with the event on November 3rd.
Bug fix: robe not unlocking (v6.0.33 → v6.0.34)
The initial event build (v6.0.33) sometimes failed to grant the robe and achievement. If you collected pumpkins in that version and got stuck:
- Launch the game with the launch option
--clear-collectables-halloween(this resets your Halloween collectibles). - Close the game, remove the launch option, then relaunch normally.
- Re-collect the pumpkins — the robe and achievement will now grant correctly.
Sweep strategy for the 70 pumpkins
- Start with the small maps. The Asylum and The Farmhouse are compact, multi-floor interiors — pumpkins are dense and quick to route. Save The Carnival, the largest map, for last.
- Play on Easy while sweeping. Azazel moves ~30% slower and fewer minions spawn, so you can search in peace — you lose 50% XP, but the 1.5x event boost mostly cancels that out.
- Hidden collectibles persist. Like the 25-map hidden-item sets (roses, cloth, horseshoes…), anything you pick up stays collected — you do not need all 70 in one run, or even one session.
- Bring a friend. Pumpkins are shared progress with your co-op group; splitting floors cuts sweep time roughly in half.
When it ends
The event closes November 3rd at 02:00 PT. The XP boost stops then, but the Pumpkin Robe — once unlocked — is yours forever.
