Updated on Nov. 1, 2026 in Gaming
Storage Hunters: Open World released its Pumpkin Boss Update on October 31, 2026, at 8:00 PM UTC. The update is the final Halloween update in the game and introduces a Pumpkin boss that spawns after a player wins a set number of garages at auctions.
Why it matters
The update closes out the game's seasonal Halloween content while adding new mutators, materials, and accessories for players to collect. Its boss mechanics tie seasonal rewards to regular auction play.
The Pumpkin Boss Update adds 11 new materials to Build Mode and increases mythical commonness by 25% in the Farmyard Barn Garage. Every seventh Halloween garage won brings three Pumpkin Minions into the bidding, and every 28th garage the Pumpkin Boss bids himself.
The players
Storage Hunters: Open World
A open-world auction and garage-collecting game that features seasonal updates and player-versus-boss content.
The details
Players trigger the Pumpkin boss by winning 27 garages, after which it appears on the map automatically when they bid on the 28th garage and attempts to outbid them during the auction. Defeating the boss awards the Pumpkin Boss Chest and Pumpkin Trophy, and the first defeat grants the Pumpkin King title. New limited drops from boss garages include the Flying Dark Dragon and the Pumpkin Boss Hat.
