When will the Haunted Harvest Event launch? Throne and Liberty has been gearing up to celebrate the Halloween festivities with its Haunted Harvest Event, but unfortunately it’s been delayed due to a “critical stability issue in the 1.4.0 Update”
The Halloween-themed update was due to go live yesterday, Wednesday, 23rd October, but the servers will be taken offline later today. The 1.4.0 Patch and Haunted Harvest will go live tomorrow, October 25th, two days after the original plan.
“Unfortunately during testing we discovered a critical stability issue in the 1.4.0 Update.” reads the message in a Steam announcement post. “Our team has worked with NCSOFT to resolve the issue and will release Haunted Harvest following the downtime on October 24 10:30PM PT (5:30AM UTC).
What's the Release Time for the Throne and Liberty Haunted Harvest Halloween Event and when does it end?
The Haunted Harvest Event will begin sometime between the 24th and 25th of October, depending on your timezone, and will be launched with Patch 1.4.0. The Halloween Event will end on the 13th November.
- Haunted Harvest Start Date: 25th October
- Haunted Harvest End Date: 13th October
“We always regret when delays happen but it’s important for us to ensure we deliver the best possible experience.” continued the Steam post. “As a result of our delay, all players will be granted an additional 500 Ornate Coins. Thank you for your patience and understanding.”
Players can explore an event-only dungeon brimming with rewards, wander through villages adorned with eerie decorations, and don-themed cosmetics to transform into the Wicked Enchanter or Grin Reaper. Don’t miss out on the Haunted Harvester’s weapon cosmetics, adding a stylish and spooky touch to your Halloween outfits.
“In pursuit of a giant jack-o’-lantern, you’ve unknowingly entered a perilous trap with seasonal surprises lurking around every corner.” says the Steam announcement post when talking about this Halloween Dungeon. “Navigate thrilling obstacles, defeat fiendish pumpkins, and devour a Candy Corn for the chance to receive rewards like cosmetics, food buffs, ornate coins, and more.”
Just a short delay for the Haunted Harvest Event and Throne and Liberty’s Patch 1.4.0 Update. NCSoft has done a good job communicating with its player base on the delay, and we’re sure 500 Ornate Coins will be a welcome apology for its Steam community of over 178,000 concurrent players.
