MultiVersus Halloween event gives out candy and costumes, requires 800 matches to unlock everything
It’s that time of year again — the time when video games start celebrating the spooky season of Halloween. Fortnite has Fortnitemares, Roblox has new Halloween halo answers, and MultiVersus is getting into the spirit with its own event.
As detailed in the latest patch notes, that event is all about candy. Playing against other people or bots in matches earns you varying amounts of candy based on whether you win or lose and how many fighters are present. You’ll also earn bonus candy by playing as Gizmo in his Halloween costume or any of the other new Halloween outfits. There are seven Halloween costumes altogether, and they look very good — just check out vampire Tom and Jerry at the top of this article or the Black Lantern versions of Batman and Wonder Woman below.
However, there’s a big caveat for anyone looking to unlock these cool costumes. Only two of them — Mummy Reindog and Calico Cake (for Adventure Time‘s Jake) — can be purchased using earned candy.

You’re most likely going to have to open your wallet if you want a particular outfit, much less the whole set.
