After almost a year of fun and tons of updates, Valve’s MOBA shooter Deadlock has already become a favorite among fans despite being in early development. With the year ending soon, the developer announced a new Christmas visual update for Deadlock to celebrate the Holiday spirit. Although the official changelog does not explicitly mention this, players have been surprised with the first official skins in Deadlock. So, in this guide, learn how to get all the holiday skins in Deadlock.
Deadlock Holiday Cheer Skin System
The holiday skins in Deadlock are part of a cheer system. Once you play a hero in the game and complete a certain quest, the announcer will shout a cheer for you. The cheer will show a message to everyone on the team saying an enemy or ally has achieved holiday cheer. The announcer will also shout the hero’s name and the skin they are wearing.
As soon as the challenge is complete, you will see the holiday skins on the Deadlock hero right away. After the game ends, you will see a Santa hat with a red background on your hero screen. Here is an image preview for better understanding:
How to Unlock Deadlock Holiday Skins
There are no official quest lines mentioned in the game, which can help you with unlocking these holiday skins. Do not worry, though, as we and the community have discovered most of these for your convenience.
Here, we have listed all the Deadlock holiday skin challenges that will help you unlock them. While most of these quests are confirmed, some are still not explored. We will update this section once we have confirmed all the quests.
Are Deadlock Holiday Skins Permanent?
Unfortunately, the developers have not clarified if the skins will stay until the end of the holidays like the Halloween update or they will stay in our inventory as a piece of exclusive equipment.
The game already has an equipment section for every hero. This could mean the Holiday skins in Deadlock are a collectible item. We will update this section when we have more information from the game’s development team.
