– GO MODER! –

Halloween has an aesthetic that allows for a wide variety of presentation options. New Halloween themes are introduced each year, influenced by new horror shows or films alongside older cultural mainstays for the holiday. Video games follow these trends, old and new, creating one of the best parts of Halloween: the awesome multiplayer video game maps that come with the season.

RELATED: Best Enemy Designs in Horror Games

Some games choose to redesign their maps, while other games create maps that are completely unique and made specifically for the holidays. This list of multiplayer video game maps will look at many types of maps. Some of the maps were also created by the gaming community to give them the spooky notoriety they deserve.

10/10 Horror Escape Room – Fortnite Creative Mode (1454-5487-5258)

Horror Escape Room Map is a fun Fortnite creative mode map that requires players to look through different rooms and find a combination of normal and jumping puzzles. It’s a map that players and their friends can compete to complete.

Players must search the area high and low to unlock stages that let players move to a different location. If players go in the wrong direction, they die and must start at the beginning of the stage.

9/10 Halloween Patchoff – Call Of Duty: Mobile

The Halloween Standoff map in Call of Duty: Mobile was probably one of the coolest Halloween maps out there for mobile gaming. It felt like it did everything it could for its player base and gave them something of value. Call of Duty repurposed the standoff map and redesigned it to look more Halloween themed and the way they did it was great.

Every inch of the map has been completely transformed to look like a quaint town getting ready to celebrate Halloween. It’s not terrifying in a scream-and-run-away kind of way, but in an eerily cute way that exudes The Nightmare Before Christmas vibes.

8/10 Adlersbrunn – Watch

Aldersbrunn in Overwatch is basically a reskin of the bridge and castle gates of the Eichenwalde map. The biggest difference is that it’s at night, and instead of the map having two areas on the bridge for players to fall off, that area is replaced with pools of water instead.

The background of the map also appears much more menacing than the Eichenwalde version of the map, and the moonlight adds a nice illumination to the experience. It’s also interesting that it was a Horde mode based map.

7/10 The Tailhole – Borderlands 3

Borderlands 3 has some of the best content centered around a Halloween event. Players travel to a location called The Heck Hole. The Heck Hole Map is really short and sweet. The little attention to detail that went into it was a nice addition to the game. Players fight against haunted hordes of ghost enemies. There is also a nice pumpkin puzzle in the chapel.

It’s fun to explore the entire map and leads to a nice little boss fight where the mechanic is shown to the player rather than told.

6/10 Monster Bash – Team Fortress 2

The Monster Bash map is actually a Halloween map created by the Team Fortress 2 community, featuring knight statues, rain outside, spooky library sections, and a reanimation machine in the center of the map. It came out for the 2018 Scream Fortress event. On top of that, the location is in a Bavarian Gothic castle. The map also has a unique objective as players must collect buckets to fill the animator.

RELATED: Games that deserve a sequel

The map has a strong Frankenstein Castle vibe with the reanimation machine carrying the corpse of a monster that players attempt to reassemble using each other’s body parts.

5/10 Night in King’s Canyon – Apex Legends

The Night At King’s Canyon map in Apex Legends is by far one of the best looking renditions of the King’s Canyon map for the Halloween event the game had in 2019. She added a feel to the game that many people never knew it could have. One aspect that is truly eerie is the well-decorated, candlelit areas. The light fog is also a nice touch for the nighttime version of the map, adding a bit more cover for players.

The map has many nice features, e.g. B. When players opened chests in certain areas, zombies would jump out of them to add a little scare factor.

4/10 Haunted Sectors – Destiny 2

The Haunted Sectors were areas in Destiny 2’s Festival of the Lost 2021 that look like they’ve been overrun by spooky specters. Rooms are filled with various Halloween decorations, while jack-o’-lanterns and candles fill the halls. A strange spectral mist hangs in the air at each location, and trees fill the area that looks like it’s possessed by demons.

The maps also feature headless horseman enemies that drop candy when players pick them out. Each of the maps is small, but it’s a lot of fun to go through them with friends, collect candies and unlock more loot.

3/10 Stranger Things Upside Down Map – Rocket League

The Upside Down map in Rocket League is beautiful and feels like it’s straight out of Stranger Things. The map was created for the Haunted Hallows Halloween event. The sky is raining with ash, which also gives it the deeply unsettling vibe that the outside world of Silent Hill exudes as it transforms. The red lights around the square also give off a most ominous tone.

RELATED: Hardest RPGs of All Time, Ranked

By far the best thing about the course is being able to see the Mind Flayer from the show lurking in the distance, watching over the players.

2/10 Autumn Harvest Festival Base – Monster Hunter: World

Monster Hunter: World Base’s Fall Harvest Festival 2017 is one of the prettiest Halloween maps in gaming, as it features a wide variety of festive decorations that look like they belong in the Monster Hunter universe. Some pumpkins are carved to have the face and shape of a Palico cat. There are also areas with an abundance of decorations that are absolutely gorgeous, including festive fireworks.

The bad thing about this map is that despite its beauty, only part of the map is fully decked out with Halloween decorations. However, players will spend most of their time in this area and it serves as the perfect Halloween eye candy.

1/10 Haddonfield – Dead by Daylight

Haddonfield is a town that is the main setting of the Halloween film series and comes to life in Dead By Daylight. It’s the best Halloween-themed map on the list because it takes place on Halloween and is based on a movie about Halloween murders. The initial iteration of the map was a bit unbalanced, but it has since been updated, making it much more equal for both the survivor and the killer.

The map looks like an abandoned version of the town in the movies and manages to create a nice spooky atmosphere that feels great to play through.
