CAMBRIDGE, U.K. — December. 16, 2021 — Who says you can’t get into the Christmas spirit while transforming into a monster and eating your friends’ faces? Wash down the eviscera with some tasty nog as long-running social horror game Deceit is amping up the festivities with a new limited-time holiday event!
The Christmas Event 2021 runs from December 16 to January 6, 2022 and comes packed with blood-soaked presents:
17 new Christmas cosmetics, including the Legendary Christmas Tree Rachel skin, Mrs Claus Lisa, Elf Nina, and other themed items including the Gift-Wrapped Pistol and Candy Cane weapons.
Christmas 2020 cosmetics added to the Vault, allowing players another chance to get event-limited cosmetics such as the Legendary Toy Soldier Alex and Nutcracker Chang skins.
25 Christmas-specific Challenges added to the Labyrinth.
Present Collection: Collect presents around each map during a match. Collection milestones will award Christmas cosmetics or tokens.
Unique Item Upgrades, such as the Snowball Shotgun and Snowman Lethal Injection, which turns targets into a helpless snowman (or woman!).
Additionally, the Christmas Mega Bundle* has been added to the in-game shop. It is available for $9.99 / £7.99 and contains the following content:
The Christmas Mega Bundle-exclusive Toy Knife weapon cosmetic
10x Christmas Tokens
1x of each Christmas Item Upgrade:
Snowman Lethal Injection
Snowball Shotgun
Red Nose Torch
North Star Camera
Freezing Trap
*The Christmas Mega Bundle is redeemable in-game
Christmas Tokens are temporarily replacing Normal Tokens in purchasable packs. Tokens can be redeemed at the Booth for random cosmetic rewards. Christmas Shards will be given out instead of the Normal Token Shards, collect 10 and combine them to make a Christmas Token.
A Bonus Ticket Weekend that boosts tickets earned by playing matches by an additional 50% will be live from December 31 to January 3. Tickets are used to progress through the Labyrinth and unlock new rewards.

About Deceit:
First released in early 2017 and downloaded by over 13 million players, Deceit continues to receive a steady flow of content updates and improvements from developer World Makers, including the recent introduction of the Labyrinth, an entirely new progression system.
Inspired by the party game Werewolf and a variety of classic horror films, the CRYENGINE-powered Deceit drops up to six players into a mysterious contest for survival wherein a third of the party is secretly infected. Using in-game voice chat, items and clues, the innocents must work together to escape alive while the infected work to sabotage the team, either by force or by seeding doubt and paranoia to turn players against each other. When the lights go out, the infected can transform into vicious terrors and hunt the survivors down.
