Underworld is the general name used to refer to alternate play areas present in certain Halloween maps. They were introduced in the Very Scary Halloween Special update with the map Eyeaduct.

Although Underworlds differ from each other depending on their map, they feature many common characteristics.

  • They are scary, supernatural locations set in different realities, often referred to as damnation places.
  • Access to them is open for short periods, either through portals that only appear every so often or at the very end of the round.
  • Play time on them is limited, either by a health drain that increases over time or by the place exploding after a while.
  • Lethal hazards that instantaneously kill players surround the place, severely limiting the playable area.
    • Together with the aforementioned limited play time, it makes them much more linear than the regular part of their maps.
  • Rewards such as Rare Magic Spells and buffs when exiting (like invincibility and guaranteed crits) encourage players to use these areas to try and gain a tactical advantage in the main map.
  • Engineers can't place buildings in them.
  • Players are encouraged to try these locations out through Achievements, Achievement items, and Halloween Contract Objectives.

The following table lists all Underworlds and special Underworld locations in alphabetical order of the map's name, together with entry methods and buffs, what players will find in them (hazards and rewards), and exit methods and buffs.
