Hive-o-ween content will be leaving on Wednesday, November 6th.
If you haven't yet found all of the potion ingredients in the hub, reached the maximum level in Ghost Invasion, or collected 100 souls in Murder Mystery, now is your last chance to do so!
Once they're gone, all of this year's Hive-o-ween unlocks will never be available again!
Unleash your inner ram-page! The Ram costume can now be purchased from the Quest Store!
We have removed skill-based (ELO) matchmaking from The Bridge: Solos. This game now uses (local region) platform-based matchmaking.
Whilst The Bridge gets more than enough players for regular matchmaking, SBMM was causing excessively long matchmaking times outside of peak hours in the respective regions. Outside of these hours, the gap in skill (ELO) was so high that it was practically the same as our regular matchmaking.
For clarity, we are not vaulting The Bridge, and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
It's The Hive's 6th anniversary! Join The Hive today to receive your exclusive party hat and hub title!
The unlocks will automatically be granted when you join The Hive, and will only be available until October 17th, at 12pm (noon) UTC.
Cross-Region Matchmaking, part of our ongoing Region Agnostic update, is now enabled for BlockDrop and Ground Wars on the Europe and Asia regions.
Cross-Region Matchmaking activates based on the amount of player queuing for a specific game type. When this number is below a threshold, the system will try to find a lobby on a different region.
You can learn more about Cross-Region Matchmaking on our support website.
We'll update the linked support article based on frequently asked questions and feedback.
A huge cauldron has appeared in the hub... We're not quite sure how it got here or who put it there, but our builders reportedly heard cackling while they were putting up decorations...
Perhaps you could search for some ingredients and create your own concoction—who knows what you could brew?!
There have been reports of some peculiar items appearing around the hub and microhubs, be sure to check them out on your hunt for ingredients!
It seems history has repeated itself! While trying to access the high-security vault where our Hive-o-ween maps are stored, our builders somehow managed to release a Reaper into Murder Mystery once again.
It’s up to you to collect the souls of fallen players and send him back to where he belongs. Who knows, your efforts might just be rewarded with something mysterious and valuable...

As is tradition, everyone's favorite fruit-colored ghosts are back! Ghost Invasion has returned once again, and with it comes an all-new collection of cosmetics for you to unlock!
Ghost Invasion is an infection-style game where the ghosts must infect the humans. Once all humans are infected, or the ghosts have run out of respawns (100), the game is over.
A mini update has been released for Murder Mystery. This update includes new unlocks, sound changes, and a brand new map: Nectar Lake!
Pack your bags, it's time to go camping down by Nectar Lake! Be sure to keep your wits about you though—not everything is as it seems...
Be sure to check out our blog post about the map here.
When a player is murdered, the sound now plays from the direction where the murder took place. The volume of the sound will also indicate how far away you were from the murder.
This feature works best when wearing headphones.
You can now unlock various swords by leveling up:
By default, murderers now wield a wooden sword. The previous default (the iron sword) can now be unlocked at level 10.
