Barony Scarony

Summer is over, the leaves have started to change, and even Baron Herx is in a festive mood. You know what that means: Halloween returns to Barony! Starting on October 1st and continuing through the end of the month, the realms of Barony receive a Halloween makeover filled with festive changes to celebrate everyone's favorite spooky season. Note, while disguised items might look different (and may bear a different name too!), the gameplay is 100% intact.

A Very Scary Avatar Frame!

To celebrate the return of Barony Scarony, we've added a brand new animated frame for your Steam Avatar! The new frame features some of our favorite macabre dungeon icons of Halloween including a mimic, a ghoulish arm, and what is that peaking from behind a tree? Could it be...the creature?! This is available now on the Barony Points Shop!

Terrifying Costumes

Much of the game's equipment has transformed into wacky, goofy, or spooky costume pieces to celebrate in style. You'll find halos, butterfly wings, disguise masks, and other things to accessorize with as you descend further into the dungeon.

Frightening Environments

If the dungeon wasn't foreboding enough already, there's fresh layer of terror in the dungeons during Halloween season. Jack 'O Lanterns line the walls of the Mines, Hell has taken on an eerie green hue, and the water in the Swamps runs red...with blood!

Monsters in Costume

Adventurers aren't the only ones in the Halloween spirit in October. Many monster NPCs have gotten a makeover too! Ghouls don their best funeral suits? Succubi masquerading as alluring nurses? Trolls as Frankenstein's creature?! Is there no end to this horror?

Ghastly Weapons

Even Barony's weapons celebrate in style. For the season you'll wield cleavers, devils' pitchforks, monkey's claws, and even an axe shaped like a bat! A pointy mix of prop weapons you might bring trick-or-treating. Check the tooltips if you need a reminder of what weapon skill they use!

Candy, Candy, Candy!

What would Halloween be without some sweet sweet candy? Barony has you covered. All of the food items in the game have been magically converted into several different pieces of sugary delight. Ever fought a lich while under the effects of a sugar rush?

Macabre Music

Barony's candy bucket is stuffed full of visceral visual goodies, and you get to enjoy it all while hearing some fun new sound effects and listening to a completely remastered soundtrack by Nicolas Gasparini (Myuu). Myuu graciously provides his music to various indie projects, and he has offered his work on Barony under the CC3.0 License. His work is stellar, but we make no claims that his art is an endorsement of the game.

Keep Your Secrets

There's one final sweet treat for all of Barony's fans. We are thrilled to announce that our next update Keep Your Secrets will be launching soon! So stay tuned, this update will have you screaming in excitement there's so many new features and content to explore.
