Psytec Games is bringing Halloween to Titan Isles with the launch of update v1.0.42, live now on Meta Quest and SteamVR. The new update introduces the Hollowlight Festival: a limited-time, Halloween-themed celebration including special events, eerie visuals, and new gameplay challenges.
Titan Isles Hollowlight Festival
Launched today, 23rd October, 2025, the Hollowlight Festival transforms Titan Isles into a haunted playground. This seasonal event offers a haunting new aesthetic, complete with chilling decorations and atmospheric touches across Clouds Edge. Players can expect glowing pumpkins, spectral lighting, and a festive energy that sets the tone for Halloween in VR.
The festival also introduces two limited-time events — The Haunted Run and Pumpkin Panic — designed to challenge players’ agility, precision, and speed.
- The Haunted Run is the centerpiece of the Hollowlight Festival. This brand-new collection race pushes players to race through the skies, collecting every Halloween pumpkin scattered across the course. It’s a blend of Titan Isles’ trademark aerial traversal and competitive gameplay infused with a spooky seasonal twist. Expect ghostly obstacles, glowing collectibles, and an extra layer of intensity as players compete for bragging rights.
- Pumpkin Panic delivers a quick but intense VR challenge. This short time trial dares players to destroy every pumpkin target within Clouds Edge in just 60 seconds. It’s fast and frantic, and a perfect test of your flying and aiming skills. Those who conquer Pumpkin Panic before the festival ends will earn an exclusive in-game trophy that remains permanently in Clouds Edge, even after the Halloween event disappears. It’s a limited-time achievement that will serve as a lasting badge of honor for those daring enough to complete the challenge.
