The forthcoming RPG life simulation game Mirthwood will be available for PC this September as players immerse themselves in this medieval fantasy world setting. As players can explore different paths from the ways of an adventurer or settle in a quaint village and build a family, what lies beyond may send shivers down their spines or induce fear over time.

The game's developer has detailed in the first official roadmap that seasonal content will be added in a future game update, so can we anticipate a seasonal event themed on Halloween? Using the information provided in the roadmap, we answer this spooky question of whether a Halloween-themed event is coming soon to Mirthwood.

Will There Be A Halloween Seasonal Event For Mirthwood In 2024?

Developer Bad Ridge Games have released their first Development Roadmap for their "enchanting RPG life sim" game, Mirthwood, providing players with a glance at future game updates, content additions, new features and mechanics, and plenty more over the coming months. The forthcoming content additions include seasonal events, which players can happily anticipate engaging with throughout the year.

As we can look forward to some stellar seasonal events, likely based on real-world celebrations, festivities, and special occurrences, one future real-world special occurrence in October brings all things spooky and terrifying: Halloween. While it may not be as widely celebrated as the Holiday season or Christmas, it's one globally recognized event that often appears in video games, so can we expect a Halloween-themed event in Mirthwood?

Currently as of writing, we cannot confirm whether there will be a  Halloween-themed event in Mirthwood, as seasonal events are expected to arrive in the game's December 2024 update. "The Feast and Festivities" update is confirmed to be adding Christmas-themed content, and while the developer has revealed what to expect in November 2024, it's not stated that seasonal content will be added to this specific update.

Speaking of the game's November 2024 update, thematically, it's aptly titled "Death and Taxes," and most of the new content is centered around these themes. This includes funeral events for deceased NPCs, which could add some haunting experiences that will bring chills and terrifying scares, likely with the addition of attending funerals and various related practices.

Along with the arrival of funeral events to Mirthwood, the "Death and Taxes" update also includes ailments, likely increasing the possibility of characters getting ill or sick in-game. Nevertheless, while the game releases on 11th September 2024, there are plenty of details on the game's post-launch roadmap that haven't been revealed or announced, and as such, we'll update this page once more information becomes available.
