Bloody Harvest Event Coming to Borderlands 3

During the first episode of the Borderlands Show, we got our first look at the upcoming Bloody Harvest event that's coming to Borderlands 3. This free seasonal event will be running from October 24 to December 5. If you played the previous Borderlands games than you know that the Bloody Harvest is a Halloween inspired event. During the event you will be able to obtain new gear and cosmetic items.

Seasonal Themed

During the Bloody Harvest event, the Borderlands 3 Galaxy will be Halloween-themed. When you have reached the point where you can travel to Sanctuary III, you can encounter haunted enemies throughout the game. These Haunted enemies are your key to accessing a new event-specific map. You will need to collect their Hecktoplasm to earn your way into the new location called Heck. A new NPC called Maurice who is aboard Sanctuary III will help you with that. He is a surprisingly friendly Saurian who can speak to you via a device of Tannis’ own invention. Maurice will have a repeatable quest for you to gain access to Heck. However, beware of those Haunted enemies as they will do their best to scare you to death. When you kill one of them a Ghost will rise from their dead body and coming in contact with these ghosts will debuff you.

New Debuff Mechanic

Throughout the Bloody Harvest event, enemies can debuff you with a new status effect called ‘Terror’. If you are affected by this ‘terror’ your weapon handling will decrease and you will experience more sway with your weapons. While this might sound annoying at first, there is anointed gear that ties into this status effect and turns this into a beneficial boost of power.

The cosmetic items won’t drop in Heck but are part of the event. To unlock these items, you’ll need to complete a new set of challenges that are exclusive to Bloody Harvest. Progress towards completing these Challenges is tracked automatically, and each cosmetic item is unlocked via completing a certain number of these Challenges.
