Halloween has arrived in Damned 2! This major update introduces the new Relic Hunt mode, flashlight cosmetics, banners, and dozens of new tasks, along with haunted decorations across every map.

New Game Mode: Relic Hunt

A brand-new way to escape!
Search the maps for hidden relics, deliver them to the elevator, and escape once you’ve gathered enough Tribute.

Each relic has a physical presence and may carry a curse, making the journey harder.
Work together — multiple survivors can carry the same relic, but heavy objects will slow you down.
Customize the challenge with new Relic Hunt Difficulty Options to adjust how demanding each match feels.

New Cosmetics: Flashlights & Banners

Flashlights now join the cosmetic lineup!
Eight new designs are available to unlock through the Halloween tasks:

• Oldy Rusty

• Orange Can

• Space Toy

• Sugar Moon

• Gold

• Royal Decay

• Catlight

• Devil’s Torch

Also unlock three special animated banners:

• Marked by the Flame — Exclusive to players who join the Halloween 2025 Event.
  

• Host of the Relics — New banner celebrating the Relic Hunt mode.
  

• Blood God (Remade) — Reworked with new art and visual effects.
  

Gameplay & Map Updates
