Roblox’s stylish dodgeball minigame, Blade Ball, is cutting into Thanksgiving 2024 with a brand-new Thanksgiving Event that adds holiday-themed activities for players to feast on.
The festive event arrived alongside a stuffed V6.4 update that originally made its way to players last weekend. Although the event itself kicked off a few days ago, there’s never been a better time to dive in and see what turkey-themed activities there are to enjoy.
Roblox Blade Ball players can access the Thanksgiving Event themselves by keeping an eye out for the turkey NPC in the lobby. Those who manage to spot a turkey in their games can be granted Turkey Coins and unlock unique rewards. It’s an event filled with distractions to keep competitors busy with additional quests, daily rewards, a shop, and more.
V6.4 also introduces a few other changes to keep players bouncing back. Crown Clash, for example, is a game mode that can be voted for every five rounds and sees players trying to survive while carrying a crown for as long as possible. Win Streaks are another addition that will allow users to show off their win streak with a counter above their heads. Of course, developer Wiggity also introduced a few bug fixes and balance adjustments, including nerfs for Dragon Spirit and Phantom.
The Blade Ball Thanksgiving Event started on November 23 and runs for two weeks. That means you’ve only got until December 7 to enjoy everything it has to offer. If you plan on using your Thanksgiving break to finally check out how the team at Wiggity celebrates the holidays, you can see our list of all active Blade Ball codes here to help set yourself up. You can also check out everything included in the Thanksgiving Event by reading the full V6.4 patch notes below.
