The highly anticipated Halloween event, known as ‘Monster Smash 2’, has been launched by NFL Rivals, the officially licensed NFL video game. This exciting event introduces the legendary NFL player and former MVP Adrian Peterson, who takes on the role of a running back and provides players with dynamic challenges and performances. Over the next four weeks, players will have the opportunity to “rewrite history” by reliving some of Peterson’s most iconic career moments.
Adrian Peterson is the standout figure of this event and is featured in several game editions throughout the program’s four-week duration. Players can unlock these editions through various means, including as a free giveaway, a Battle Pass reward, or by earning top rewards in the program’s store. The Legendary and Mythical Player Editions are particularly sought after, but players can only purchase one of these desired versions using the in-game currency called ‘Candy’.
The “Monster Smash 2” event offers players the chance to complete up to 40 milestones, each of which unlocks valuable rewards such as coins, gems, training resources, and exclusive player cards. By participating in currency-collecting events during the week and player-specific ‘Main Events’ on the weekend, players can earn ‘Candy’ to spend on rare and legendary players available in the promo store.
One of the highlights of the event is the inclusion of ten special running challenges that allow players to relive Adrian Peterson’s career-defining moments, including his record-breaking 296-yard game in 2007. By successfully completing these challenges, players can unlock Peterson’s “Rare NAT” and “Epic LE” editions, with the ultimate reward being his rare card, which provides advantages in future gameplay.
To enhance the Halloween atmosphere, the “Monster Smash 2” program introduces a spooky stadium, eerie card effects, and special camera shakes whenever any version of Adrian Peterson is used. With 40 milestones to reach and a wide range of rewards available, players are in for a thrilling and competitive gaming experience that will last until mid-November.
