Day of the Dead

Description

During the Day of the Dead, people gather in graveyards to celebrate with and cherish the spirits of those they have lost.

One can find the festivities in the cemeteries of any major city, where celebrants cook, dance, don costumes, and more.

More info

The Day of the Dead is a small festival honoring the memory of passed companions. Gravesites are decorated with flowers and offerings welcoming their spirits during this short holiday. This holiday is a nearly identical in-game version of the Mexican Day of the Dead.

On this holiday, players can dance with Catrina to become transformed into a skeleton, earning them the holiday's only achievement, Dead Man's Party. Players will also be tasked with bringing a serving of Bread of the Dead to the grave of a returned ghostly spirit, whom can be brought into this world with a gift of Orange Marigold.

In 2013, Macabre Marionette is now a permanent battle pet, instead of lasting for the duration of the holiday.

In 2014, you can purchase Contender Costumes and battle other players for a special achievement!
