"Overwatch's" Halloween event, Halloween Terrors, is back for the holidays. The event started on Oct. 10, but players still have Nov. 1 to earn new skins and participate in the in-game events.

Players will not only be in for some spooky new game modes but will also be treated an assortment of Halloween skins fit for the spooky holiday. Some of the brand-new game events that "Overwatch" has to offer are Junkenstein's Revenge, Endless Night, Spooky Eichenwalde and Spooky Hollywood.

Junkenstein's Revenge has players teaming up in groups of four to face off against Junkenstein's monster and the madman himself. Aside from the dastardly duo, other foes will also be available during the event, including The Reaper, The Summoner and the Witch of the Wilds. Teamwork and skill will be tested as the players pull together to aid one another throughout these brand-new battles.

Junkenstein's Revenge: Endless Night puts a twist on the previous boss fight. Instead of facing against select foes in this version of the game, players will have to survive wave after wave of enemies.

Players will be able to play as either Genji, Torbjörn, Widowmaker and Zenyatta. They will be inside the castle as enemies and occasional bosses pour inside. What follows is a competition to see who can survive the endless onslaught for the longest amount of time. The winner will earn a spot on the leaderboard.

Meanwhile, Spooky Eichenwalde and Spooky Hollywood, as the names imply, will allow players to explore haunted versions of the said maps for an atmospheric treat.

Game modes aside, some of the brand-new skins available in the event are Dracula, Jiangshi, Vampire, Demon, Dragon and Witch. Those are only a handful of the skins players can get their hands on; there's a whole lot more available in-game.

"Overwatch" is currently available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows PC.
