Crouch in front of the lantern for 6 seconds while the ghost is active is a special Halloween Wrath of the Bride challenge called Lit lantern in Monitor 2.
For completing the Lantern Lit challenge in Overwatch 2, you will receive 1,000 XP for the current Battle Pass. Not as exciting as a cosmetic, but it will help unlock heroes and other rewards.
There are a lot of lanterns in the Wrath of the Bride mode in Overwatch 2, and it’s not clear who the ghost is, so we explained how to complete the Lantern Lit challenge below.
For help with other Halloween challenges, check out our guides to Ominous Portent, Witch’s Brew, and Photozomb.
How to Complete the Overwatch 2 Lantern Lit Challenge
If you haven’t already, you must first unlock Arcade Mode in order to access the Halloween Event Challenges in Overwatch 2. This requires you to play fifteen matches in Quickplay first.
When you unlock Arcade, select Bride’s Wrath and choose your difficulty. We strongly recommend that you just play the “story” mode if you only want to play small challenges like Lantern Lit.
Play through the story and objectives of Wrath of the Bride until you reach the barricaded castle. Once you defeat the castle guards outside, Ashe will need to burn down the castle gate with her Dynamite ability. You’ll have to do this yourself if you’re playing Ashe.
We also have an Overwatch 2 tier list to help you decide who to play in each role once you’ve unlocked all the heroes, a competitive mode and MIT explanations, and all the Season 1 Battle Pass skins you can. unlock.
The next objective is to “find the lord of the castle”, but before locating him, the unstoppable ghost will appear at the top of some stairs. It’s the ghost that must be active to complete the Lantern Lit challenge, and living up to its name, it can’t be killed.
The lantern you need to crouch on for 6 seconds to complete the Lantern Lit challenge is to the left of where the unstoppable ghost spawns. Run past him and crouch in front of the lantern, and when you’ve crouched long enough, you’ll get the message “Lantern Lit challenge complete” in the lower left corner of the screen.
If you get downed while crouched in the lantern, it won’t count – but if you’re playing story mode and a teammate doesn’t revive you soon, you’ll get up anyway and can try again.
Progress through the rest of the level and defeat the boss to complete it, but be sure to strike a pose with the bride during her introduction to complete the Photozomb challenge as well!
I hope you are having fun this Halloween in Overwatch 2!
