First off, if you don’t have auto-update enabled for Classic, make sure you update the game!
For the next four weeks the EHR is celebrating its annual Fiesta! That’s 3 mission packs (Easy, Medium and Hard), the long competition that runs for the whole 4 weeks, and a multi-species competition each week with tiers.
Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! This event is going to work a bit differently, so read on for the skinny.
While we’re considering this an event, it isn’t going to function like one. There are no special point$ to collect, no fancy banner and calendar. Activate your missions from the mission page and your comps from the competition page as you normally would.
All three mission packs will be available for the duration but they do have dependencies, so you can’t start with the hard pack and work backwards. You have plenty of time, but don’t waste it. And remember, it’s called a hard pack for a reason. It’s supposed to be hard, that’s its purpose. You wouldn’t take its purpose away, would you? That would just be mean.
The Mega Saver comp runs for 4 weeks. You have 20 attempts BUT we’re doing things a little differently this year. You will need to hunt all the animals ethical for the .243 Rifle (any version is fine). All animals will be available from the start of the competition. Remember to deactivate the comp in between sessions so you don’t waste attempts. Highest combined CSS wins. To be eligible, you need at least one harvested animal of each species.
Duration: 28 days
Start: 23 July 2025 (Wednesday)
End: 20 August 2025 (Wednesday)
As explained, but you probably skipped it, all three mission packs will be available for the duration but the harder ones unlock as you complete the easier ones. No skipping ahead. You can play them in Multiplayer if you choose.
Remember that the Fiesta is our event for the hardcore players. Anyone should be able to complete the imaginatively named Easy Mission Pack. The other two will require a little more effort. Unlike last year, the mission packs are not split up. You must complete the entire pack to get the prizes. Let this be a lesson not to game the system.
Easy Mission Pack:
A total of 3000 gm$, 100 em$, a trophy, a Deployable Hunting Tower and a 1 Month Unlimited Ammo Pass.
Medium Mission Pack:
A total of 6000 gm$, 200 em$, a trophy, a Tree Stand and a Trapper Tent.
Hard Mission Pack:
A total of 10000 gm$, 400 em$, a trophy and 4 Inventory Loadouts.
COMPETITIONS
The event comes with 4 competitions (each with with 7 tiers) and the Mega Saver that lasts the duration. Each of the 4 comps lasts a week.
There’s been a slight change to the Mega Saver competition this year; instead of adding animals gradually over the course of the event, you’ll be able to hunt them all from the start. There are more animals required, but you can hunt many of them on the same reserves. The weapon of choice for this competition is the .243 Rifle (you can use any version of it). You will need to hunt one of each animal species that the rifle is ethical for.
You have 20 attempts, so remember to deactivate the competition when you are not hunting for it. We cannot return wasted attempts.
What would a game be without rules?
We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners’ hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.
In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.
If you use hacks, we will ban you. Permanently. Refer to the End User Licence Agreement on the website/Launcher. I can’t believe I have to explain this here, we don’t allow hacks. Not in normal gameplay, not in competitions, and certainly not in events. It only takes once. If you’re going to challenge the decision, you’ll need to have better evidence proving you didn’t cheat than we do proving you did.
Make hay while the sun shines, in this case it’s a Grand Sale! You know how we get with this, most of the store lands up on sale 🙂

This is a small release to take care of the updated Privacy Policy and EULA. We’ve mentioned it before, not much has changed other than names since Expansive Worlds and Avalanche merged. They’re the same agreements beyond that (although it is always best practice to read this sort of thing). Your data is still handled the same (EU privacy laws) and by the same people and systems.
Anyway, you’re going to get a transition screen the first time you open the game after the update. You will need to consent to play the game. Make sure you check both boxes to Continue. You will be automatically logged in.
That’s all for now, more soon. It’s nearly Fiesta time 😉
Happy Hunting!

That’s all for now, let us know if there are any bugs with the bovines.
Happy Hunting!
