Vector Hosts Brawlhalla’s 11th Anniversary Gala, and His New Look Is the Grand Prize

Vector is hosting the party, but you’ll have to fight for his outfit. Brawlhalla’s 11th Anniversary Event is live, with Formal Deco Vector as the grand prize for collecting the other Gala rewards in the Event Center. The celebration also brings back Gala Colors, gives players a way to earn Esports v.4 Colors through matchmaking, and adds a new podium and birthday emote to Mallhalla.

There are two deadlines to keep in mind. 25 November 2026 is the last day to earn Event Center Tickets and Chests. Players then have one more week, until 2 December, to redeem the Tickets they’ve already collected or use Mammoth Coins for any remaining Event Center items. After that, leftover Tickets convert to Gold.

How to unlock Formal Deco Vector

Formal Deco Vector is the reward for collecting the Gala’s other Ticket items. The skin comes with two matching weapon designs: Ornamental Arches for the Bow and Stainless Appeal for the Rocket Lance. Players looking for the new Vector skin should start with the Event Center. The anniversary shop bundles cover a separate selection of cosmetics.

The items along the way include the Prim & Proper Sidekick and the VIP Guest title, plus the Maître d’ Mask and Peacock’s Plumage avatars. There are two emoji skins as well: Ivaldi’s Finest Rage and Formal Deco 1 More. If you want the grand prize, the route is to work through that selection rather than save Tickets for a direct purchase of the skin.

Event missions are the main way to earn Tickets. The anniversary also offers Event Center Chests, with a chance at the Blacklight Color Scheme. That’s a separate reward from the Gala Colors returning to the shop. It’s worth checking the Event Center before the earning period ends on 25 November: the final week gives you more time to spend what you’ve earned, but no more time to earn Tickets through play.

Esports v.4 Colors give you a reason to switch Legends

Win a matchmade game with a Legend during the event to unlock Esports v.4 Colors for that Legend. Get a qualifying win with 45 different Legends, and the colour scheme unlocks for all current and future Legends. The milestone counts how many different Legends you’ve earned the colours for, so winning repeatedly with one main won’t get you there.

You can check your progress on the right side of the Event Center. If you already earned some Esports v.4 Colors by watching esports events, those unlocks count towards the milestone. Players who only want the scheme for their favourites can focus on those Legends; anyone aiming for the account-wide unlock has a reason to play deeper into the roster.

Mallhalla brings back nine anniversary skins

The new shop additions are the Sleepless Metropolis podium and the 11th Cake-Aversary emote. Nine anniversary skins return, including Gothic Chic Nix, Gentleman Kor and Ritzy Bödvar. Mallhalla also has Gala Colors for every Legend, three Sidekicks, The Brilliant Bearson avatar and nine emoji skins. Look for the top-hat icons in the shop to find the anniversary selection.

The 11th Anniversary Mega Bundle combines the previous anniversary skins with the new podium and cake emote at a discount. The High Fashion Bundle and Gentlemen Bundle group smaller selections around different looks. If you came for a particular returning skin, check the anniversary shop before committing to a bundle; if you’re after Formal Deco Vector, the Event Center is where that progress is tracked.

A login reward and a championship weekend round out November

Patch 11.00 also introduced Ascended Teros, with animated Axe and Hammer skins, custom attack and movement effects, and the Decimation KO effect. The patch notes list Berserker as a free login title alongside that showcase. It’s separate from VIP Guest, the title earned through the anniversary’s Event Center.

The Gala overlaps with the Brawlhalla World Championship Expo, which runs from 13 to 15 November and has its own Twitch Drops. That gives players two different ways to spend the weekend: watch the championship for broadcast rewards, or queue up to work on their Gala items and Esports v.4 wins. If Formal Deco Vector is your goal, 25 November is the date to plan around. The extra redemption week is there to spend your Tickets, not to finish earning them.
