Hey guys,

Hope the holidays are treating everyone right with plenty of good food and fun! I just wanted to remind everyone that Snow Brawl is entering its last weekend on the CriimeCraft events menu, so if you want to bust heads with snowballs, this might be your last chance!

This Christmas we’re turning Sunrise City into a winter wonderland with a special new event named Snow Brawl! In this game, you trade in your guns for a new weapon, a snowball packed tightly around a core of high explosives! The snowball kills an enemy on a direct hit! For all Snow Brawl matches, weapons, abilities, boosts and knives are disabled and players will only have 60 hit points. Snow Brawl kicks off Dec. 19 and the map and mode will change each day of the event.

Check out the Snow Brawl trailer here!

All users will be able to unlock four winter achievements by accumulating score in Snow Brawl. The Snow Ballin' achievements are duplicated on Steam. The new achievements will appear in the Seasonal achievement category for CrimeCraft.

All players who log in between Dec. 19-Jan. 2 will also receive the special Holiday Gift Pack, including a 4-slot assault rifle with a red and white striped candy cane appearance and Eggnog, a boost that heals the character. The Holiday Gift Pack will be delivered to your Bonus tab in the ATM. The items will also be visible in the item shops which are opened by clicking on the corresponding slot on your paper doll.
