Red vs. Blue, a fan-favorite mode known for its fast-paced, team-based gameplay, will host its holiday celebration on December 25 at 3 p.m. EST. This map pits players against each other in intense team deathmatches, with customizable arenas and various weapon loadouts.
This holiday season, this game mode has slapped Christmas decorations like trees and snowmen all over a red-and-blue arena. Once the big timer hits zero, brace yourself for Christmas Wrath.
I’m guessing they’ll unvault every single Christmas weapon at once, and let the chaotic, jolly mayhem take over the place.
