The best part of this Overwatch event is the first ever PvE co-op brawl, Junkensteins Revenge! Straight from Blizzard’s website,

“Team up with three other players and face off against a host of eerie enemies, including Dr. Junkenstein himself, Junkenstein’s Monster, the Reaper, a mysterious witch, and host of shambling zomnics. Players will choose from the Alchemist (Ana), the Archer (Hanzo), the Gunslinger (McCree), or the Soldier (Soldier: 76) and defend Adlersbrunn castle’s doors against Dr. Junkenstein’s onslaught! Heroes will need to work together and develop strategies to withstand not only the advances of his macabre entourage, but also wave after wave of zomnic attacks.”

First you choose the difficulty at easy, medium, or hard. Next you choose from our four heroes, but only one of each so choose quickly! Once you start, the “Zomnics” start coming in waves. They don’t attack you, because their goal is to blow up the gate you are protecting, so shoot fast brothers and sisters!

If you haven’t yet, start checking out this Halloween event on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. This event doesn’t affect normal gameplay, in case you were wondering. If you want to check out the trailer, check it out below. Happy haunting!
