Event F.A.Q.
Q: Do I have to complete the challenges on consecutive days?
While challenges don't have to be completed on consecutive days, only one challenge can be completed per day.
Only the Xbox Live challenges can be completed *any* day before the end of the event!
This means that you will need to play at least five different days to complete all of the challenges.
Q: When is the last day I can complete the daily challenges?
The Upside Down Event concludes January 23rd.
Q: Do I get to keep all of the event unlocks?
All you need to do is log into your Xbox Live account before the end of the event to keep all of the profile icons and mods you unlock; it's as easy as that!
Q: What do I do if I accidentally unsubscribe from a special mod?
No problem! All you need to do is click your Profile Icon on the main menu, select Event Mods (under Collection), and then check the unlocked event mod you want to enable!
Q: How do I change my profile icon?
You can update your profile icon in your profile: On the main menu, click the Profile Icon next to your name. You should now be in the Profile Icons tab under Collections. Select your favorite icon, then click the Select Icon button to lock in your choice. You're done!
