The window
The October 10, 2026 update puts a Blood Moon over every server for 10 minutes every 2 hours. It rises over Hatch Wars. Event luck is tripled. Huge and Titanic odds are doubled. Titanic Count Wolf only appears under that light.
Between moons, break objects for Candy and Spooky Wands, grow the Giant Pumpkin, walk houses as far as you can, and do Season Pass quests. Spend the 10 minutes on the route that needs the multiplier.
Pick a route before the moon
| If you want | Do this | Moon required? |
|---|---|---|
| Gargantuan Mothman | Count's Hatch Battle. League place 1 is the other listed copy. | Battle odds double under the moon |
| Titanic Count Wolf | Open a filled Giant Pumpkin | Yes |
| Huge Stitched Dog | Open a full Giant Pumpkin | No |
| Titanic Snoligoster | Last house on the Count's street | The house is the route; the moon doubles loot |
| Huge Count Penguin | Trick or treat during the moon | Yes |
| Titanic Headless Dominus, Huge Wendigo | Count's Hatch Battle | Battle odds are better under the moon |
| Titanic Grinning Goat | Place on the league or the leaderboard | Leaderboard hatches must be under the moon |
| Huge Bigfoot | Lower league and leaderboard bands | Same contests |
| Huge Hippokin | Finish that week's Season Pass | No |
| Eight spooky pets and the Count pets | Hatch the new zone eggs with Candy | Rare Bigfoot and Headless Dominus are much easier under the moon |
The summary post does not name the new zones or print egg percents. Use the hatch odds planner with the percent the egg itself shows.
Trick or treat
Walk the Count's street and knock. Each house is better than the last, up to a Titanic. Under the moon, loot is doubled and Huge Count Penguin can appear. A lucky knock spawns a Giant Candy Chest for the whole street. Everyone who helps break it gets loot and Candy. The player who knocked gets the best prize. Those chests appear 3× as often under the moon and pay double loot. A chest from the Season Pass, set by a door, also doubles loot.
Pumpkin
Fill the Giant Pumpkin, open it, then use Pumpkin Rebirth for better Huge and Titanic odds. Opening under the moon is the Count Wolf roll. Opening at any time is the Huge Stitched Dog roll. The post tells you to choose: open now, or wait for the moon.
Upgrades and bursts
The upgrades machine adds Hatch Speed, Shiny Hunter, Coin Hunter, Moon Luck, and Afterglow. Afterglow keeps the moon's luck going after the moon sets. Pay with Spooky Wands from breaking.
Tier III Lucky Candles, Soul Lanterns, and Lucky Spells are the strongest bursts in Hatch Wars. The post says to pop one at moonrise. Blood Moon Gifts, from knocks and the Season Pass, can contain bursts, wands, and enchants. The luckiest gifts have a Tier III burst.
Contests
The league lasts 6 days and scores Giant Candy Chest breaks, including other players' chests and the Horseman's. Place 1 is Gargantuan Mothman. Places 2 through 251 step down through rainbow, golden, and shiny Titanic Grinning Goats to the base Titanic. Places 252 through 9,751 step down through rainbow, golden, and base Huge Bigfoot.
The leaderboard scores rare hatches under the moon. Scoring starts at 1 in 1,000, and rarer hatches score more. Places 1 through 3 are Rainbow Shiny Titanic Grinning Goat. The Titanic bands run through place 1,000. Places 1,001 through 10,000 are Huge Bigfoot.
Horseman and the Count
At moonrise, a headless rider passes and leaves loot. The post does not itemize that drop. The Count is the new final boss in Count's Manor. Out-hatch him for Huge, Titanic, and Gargantuan prizes. His rarest named pets are the Wendigo and the Headless Dominus.
Shop packs named in the post
The Forever Pack includes Huge Grinning Goat, Titanic Scaredy Ghost, and Gargantuan M-2 PROTOTYPE, plus Lucky Candles, Soul Lanterns, and Lucky Spells. The Wendigo Pack includes Tier III versions of those bursts, Exclusive Lost Hero Eggs, and 2 Mega Chests. Both are labeled limited. No diamond or Robux price is printed in the post, so none is added here. The Count Booth and Hoverboard are Season Pass exclusives for that week only.
