Right on time for Halloween and Twitch's Stream-o-Ween, the campaign runs from October 26 to November 9, at 15:00 UTC on both ends.

Dates and structure

  • Start: October 26, 2026, 15:00 UTC

  • Structure: two weeks, with two reward windows in week one and three in week two.

How to get the Drops

For the Drops to arrive, you need to link your Hunt account to Twitch. The steps and an FAQ are on the Twitch Drops page of the official Hunt website. After that, just watch streams in the Hunt: Showdown 1896 category. Claim earned Drops in your Twitch inventory, and they show up in game on your next login.

If you want to support Partner streamers specifically, the list is on the blog as well. Meanwhile, Blood Testament Chapter 2 is still running in game with Inferno and the All Hallows' Cleave event.
