[Fallen Earth News]

Beginning October 23, the wastelands of Fallen Earth will be home to throngs of unwelcome Infected for more than a week in the zombie-killing spree referred to as “Days of the Dead.” To help combat these Infected, the development team of Fallen Earth is releasing thousands of trial keys through media partners MMORPG.com, TenTonHammer.com, Massively.com and EscapistMagazine.com -- check out these sites for more information.



"The trial keys give gamers fifteen free days to explore Fallen Earth during an exciting event,” said Jessica Orr, Marketing Manager for Fallen Earth. “When players upgrade their account to live service, all of the items gained during the trial will be available."

During the Halloween extravaganza, players begin by visiting mission hubs to take reward-based repeatable missions from NPCs to destroy zombies (coordinates for these NPCs are listed in FAQ). The Bankers, a neutral faction in Fallen Earth, are also offering a special zombie-fighting weapon for killing 100 of the Infected. Players get their choice of a signature shotgun, a sawed-off shotgun or a cricket bat.

Players can also make scarecrows, made from pumpkins that are gathered from Cooking Merchants or in nearby pumpkin patches. Be on the lookout for the rare drop of the "Pumpkin of Extraordinary Merit," which grants a five percent boost on many stats and a ten percent boost on health regeneration for an hour.
