Brawl Stars’ Season 55, Brawl-O-Ween, starts on October 1, 2026. It brings Vince, a Mythic Damage Dealer, the Loony balloon on the home screen and a month-long event in several phases around Gus.
Update, October 26, 2026: Vince arrived in early access on October 19, with an event running until October 29. You need to open 14 Vince Boxes, two of them free in the shop, and two wins give one box. He will then join Brawler Blast. Sources: TheClick and ClaimCodes.
Vince: a barista who collects moths
Vince is a Mythic Damage Dealer who tends to his espresso machine and his bugs in his Creepy Cafe. Caterpillars spawn near him regularly: by hitting them with his coffee or walking over them, he turns them into moths for his collection. According to Supercell’s release notes, he loses half of his collection when he is defeated.
His attack, Espresso Shot, throws a cup of coffee. His Super, Barista Barrage, fires a projectile that applies a Caterpillar debuff, and his main attacks then deal bonus damage. His gadgets are Hot Coffee, an explosive cappuccino, and Metamothosis, which turns nearby caterpillars into moths. As for Star Powers, Come to Papa pulls caterpillars toward him and Bug Bandage heals him for 1,200 on each transformation.
In practice, Vince rewards whoever survives: losing half the collection weighs more than any damage bonus.
The Gus event: a month in several phases
According to Supercell, Brawl-O-Ween 2026 is a month-long event, experienced in several phases, following a story tied to Gus. You unlock it through the month with puzzles, community choices, a creator-led experience and a finale. Classic Brawl-O-Ween bosses return, and a new gacha coffin is added.
Loony, Gus’s balloon, stays on the home screen during the event. Each daily win feeds it, up to six per day, and the reward is claimed by pressing and holding it once all six wins are in. Rewards are Starr Drops or Chaos Drops, from zero to two Starr Drops per day.
Brawl Pass and shop
The Brawl Pass offers two collections of Epic skins, with the Paranormal Investigator player title:
- Mr. P: Fortune Teller P, Mr. Psychic and Mystic P (chroma variants).
- Shade: Cursed Shade, Creepy Shade and Jolly Ghost Shade (chroma variants).
The shop adds Dr. Bellenstein, Bellenstein’s Monster (Piper) and Flame Rider Chuck, Mythics at 199 gems, plus Terrornaut Damian, a Legendary at 299 gems.
Hide & Seek and Prop Hunt
The release notes also describe Hide & Seek, a mode where one seeker faces three hiders over four 45-second rounds. It is played with the Prop Hunt modifier: when you stop moving, you turn into a map element. That modifier can show up in other modes, such as Showdown, Gem Grab, Knockout and Bounty, and it is available in friendly rooms.
When does Vince become available?
Before his arrival, TimeSaver announced early access in October, then an entry into Brawler Blast, where a Mythic brawler costs 1,900 Credits. The exact date was not confirmed before the season launched.
