How the new mode works is that it replaces the heads of different characters with that of Jack-O-Lanterns, because festive. Players are tasked with completing 13 matches in the new Pumpkin Ball playlist in order to unlock the Frankenstein Imago skin.
It’s also worth noting that it’s not too late to earn the Dave Bautista skin in Gears 5, you can get that swanky piece of cosmetic goodness simply by playing the game before October 28th. So between Bautista, murderous pumpkins, and an ode to Frankenstein, now more than ever is the perfect time to jump into Gears 5.
