The Night of Mystery

Geheimnisnacht is the most ill-omened night of the year and with both Mannslieb and Morrslieb full in the sky only the strong and brave dare venture into the dark. During Geheimnisnacht it's said that the veil between the living and the dead is thinner, and it is the perfect time to visit the Gardens of Morr to pay homage to the ancestors.

Geheimnisnacht will be live between October 29 until November 5. Update 2.0.14 also brings, besides Geheimnisnacht, some fixes and tweaks for PC. You can find the full notes below.

Night Mode

Once again during the seasonal event of Geheimnisnacht, all of the outdoor adventure levels will be bathed in darkness, with only the light cast by Mannslieb and Morrslieb to guide your steps. Players on both PC and Console will be able to experience the Geheimnisnacht night mode.

Geheimnisnacht on PC

  • Geheimnisnacht Keep Theme

    Lohner has once more been inspired by the Cult of Morr and decorated the entire keep with hundreds of candles. Or he has something untold with a ghost or two.

  • A Fanged Infection

    Last year during Geheimnisnacht a mysterious Vampire portrait frame appeared and spread between the players. Rumors circling that the same infection lives up once more during Geheimnisnacht. Display your fangs proudly.

  • Thematic Challenges

    Only those brave enough venture out into the night during Geheimnisnacht. If you are successful you will be rewarded accordingly with a new portrait frame and painting. During Geheimnisnacht you never know what is out there.

Geheimnisnacht on Console

In addition to Gehimnisnacht Night Mode, there will be a limited-time event quest, and you can earn a new portrait frame.

Currently, we are working hard with bringing Winds of Magic to console in December, and due to this, we decided to host a smaller event during Geheimnisnacht. Dedicating our resources towards Winds of Magic is a higher priority and we are grateful for your patience.

Patch Notes
