Titanfall 2 Gets Halloween-Themed Tricks And Treats Update

Tonight is all about Halloween, and fans either getting their tricks or treats on. But if you're a player of EA's Titanfall 2, you'll be able to earn plenty of both, thanks to a new update for the game that's now live.

With it, you'll be able to score some new weapon skins that provide some special squad leader bonuses. However, you'll need to act quickly, as the Elite Weapon Skins will be removed come November 26th – for good.

Here's the breakdown, straight from the developers at Respawn Entertainment:

NEW ELITE WEAPON SKINS

With the Tricks and Treats patch comes a new set of Elite Weapon skins including 3 Limited edition spooky skins to celebrate Halloween. The Halloween Skins and Bundle will be available for a LIMITED TIME ONLY and will be removed from the store on 11/28 so get them while you can!

Each of these skins comes with a Squad Leader Bonus which gives:

• 10% chance per owner Elite Weapon [up to 30%] to earn a double xp token at the end of a match.
• Grants 1 extra merit to you and your teammates as the end of a match. A player can only receive this bonus once per match.

In addition, the following updates have been applied:

• We have new Featured Modes to introduce that will be added to the existing rotation.
• We've taken another look at Pistols and heard your feedback. Expect to see some changes for Mozambique and Wingman Elite.
• You will also see some adjustments made to Attrition, Frontier Defense, and Reapers.

Another update is expected before year's end, but Respawn Entertainment hasn't quite let on what we can expect from it. Maybe it'll be Christmas oriented, just like this one is Halloween, right? We can only hope we get some candy cane guns.

Another question…where are the Halloween themed Titan skins? What we wouldn't give to stomp around in a gigantic Titan dressed like a Jack-O-Lantern, or, better yet, a ghost. You'd think they would be able to get some Halloween action as well.

Titanfall 2 is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Origin PC.
