Free Realms ~ Halloween Update

Halloween is right around the corner and Free Realms has a lot of great stuff planned between now and the 31st. The residents of Free Realms are excited for some tricks and treats and their excitement is showing. Cobwebs and spooky cauldrons line the streets of Pixiewood making it clear this is one of the big holidays of the year!


If there is one thing everyone in Free Realms agrees on, it’s costumes! Creepy and funny outfits make Halloween special and the first costumes of the season are on the Station Cash marketplace. There is also a special limited edition costume!

You can pick up a Ghost, Ghostly Diver, Grim Reaper, Goth Rag Doll and the Candy Corn costumes and more right now from the Station Cash marketplace. If you want something really special, check out the Limited Edition Wolfman costume. Don’t delay because once the Wolfman costume sells out, it’s gone for good!
We’ve got more costumes, gear, decorations and quests coming throughout the month, so keep an eye out for new creepy stuff!
To make a purchase, click on the Marketplace, Claim and Membership icon on the game tool bar.
From here you can browse any available items and purchase them using Station Cash.

Free Realms ~ Spooktacular!!

Free Realms Spooktacular update is coming soon. Here is a post by the Free Realms Creative Director Laralyn McWilliams on her blog.

I can’t believe it October already! Time flies when you’re having fun!

October 28th will officially be six months after the launch of Free Realms, and we’re working hard on new features and fun additions for the game. There’s a major, mostly unannounced new minigame coming that I’ll be talking about soon… but right now we’re all excited about our favorite October event: Halloween and the next Free Realms game update, SUPER SPOOKTACULAR!

The Free Realms team loves Halloween, and you can tell just by looking at the game. What other virtual world lets you dress up in fun costumes for so many different jobs? From all-pink ninjas to pixie bananas to the limited edition Fourth of July Uncle Sam suit, you can tell the Free Realms team loves costumes!



We love Halloween so much that team members hand-crafted their own Free Realms themed costumes based on the panda pet costume and robgoblin npcs before the game ever launched!



So, we’re going all out for Halloween, as our first major live event. I don’t want to spoil too many surprises, but the costumes are awesome. Our artists have pulled out all the stops to create some of the most fun Halloween costumes I’ve ever seen in an online game. Here are two of my favorites: the vampire and the witch!

For traditionalists, we also include actual Halloween costumes—the kind you wear when you go trick-or-treating, including masks!



Costumes are just the beginning, though. You’ll find Halloween decorations all across Sacred Grove, along with special quests and even a new themed match three minigame!



Please join us throughout October to celebrate Halloween and the six month anniversary of Free Realms. Thanks for help making our virtual world a great place to call home!
