Halloween: The Game hotfix 1.021

As one might expect after a massive update, developer Illfonic has released Halloween: The Game hotfix 1.021 on all platforms, and this applies various fixes.

Note that today’s hotfix doesn’t fix every issue, but it does address the more pressing ones such as the progression issue for the new Scythe weapon and more.

Read on for what’s new in today’s title update for Halloween: The Game. Don’t expect new content, as the Tower Farm update was released just yesterday.

Halloween: The Game Hotfix for October 28 Resolves Scythe Issue

Here’s what got fixed per Illfonic:

  • Fixed an issue that prevented players from accessing the new Scythe Progressive Challenge
  • Fixed an issue where DLSS-G caused frame rate drops in certain scenarios
  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to navigate to the graphics performance settings on PC while using a controller

Some of the current known issues lingering include:

Known Issues After the Tower Farm Update

Issue Details Status
Progressive Challenge Requirements Not Updating Some players reported that challenge requirements continued to display their old values after the update. One player later reported that the display updated. Player-reported; potentially intermittent
Lootable Drawers Players reported that fewer drawers could be opened for loot, including on Town Center. Player-reported; unconfirmed
Passive Challenges Not Tracking Consistently Players raised concerns about Passive Challenges failing to count progress and taking too long to complete. Player-reported; current status unconfirmed
Crashes and Performance Problems Earlier developer reports identified crashes involving Loomis reinforcements entering a match, the end of certain single-player chapters, and Xbox Series X|S. The latest update includes additional crash fixes, but it is unclear whether all previous crash scenarios have been resolved. Previously acknowledged; post-update status unconfirmed

Once another update is released, we’ll let our readers know.
