The Meteor Shower Event has officially landed in 99 Nights in the Forest, and it’s bringing chaos from the skies. If you’ve experienced the Alien and Frog events, you know what to expect — but this time, things feel even more unpredictable. From mysterious meteors to corrupted enemies, this is shaping up to be one of the game’s most atmospheric and lore-heavy updates yet.
Here’s a full breakdown of everything added in the Meteor Shower update, what’s confirmed, and what’s being discovered in real time by players.
99 Nights in the Forest Meteor Shower Update
The Meteor Shower update is a limited-time in-game event that adds falling meteors, mysterious new enemies, and possibly new weapons, armor sets, and badges. It functions similarly to previous events like the Alien Invasion or Frog Kingdom, where the event randomly triggers in-game after a certain point — but brings new twists we haven’t seen before.
How the Event Works
Starts on Day 3: Like past events, the meteor shower seems to activate around Day 3.
Meteor Strike Announcement: A message will appear letting you know the meteor shower is beginning.
Meteors Fall Across the Map: Players can explore crash sites and interact with fallen meteors.
Early signs point to multiple outcomes when meteors land:
You may be able to collect meteorite fragments or star ore.
Nearby enemies (wolves, cultists, etc.) might become corrupted or mutated by the impact.
New Mechanics & Features
1. Meteor Interactions
According to the in-game description:
“Meteors are falling from the sky. Perhaps they can be interacted with.”
That’s your hint — these aren’t just visual effects. Meteors that hit the ground can be approached and might drop:
- Meteorite or star fragments
- Temporary buffs or speed boosts when standing near the impact zone
- Opportunities to craft or upgrade weapons/armor (workshop interaction is suspected)
2. New Enemy Types (Unconfirmed but Highly Likely)
Just like with the Frog and Alien events, we can expect:
- A main meteor-based enemy (possibly a parasitic alien or fallen star beast)
- Tiered variants (like the Alien Brute or Frog King)
- Potential for corrupted versions of existing mobs (e.g., Meteor Wolves, Meteor Cultists)
Developers have hinted at creatures emerging from meteor sites, meaning players should approach with caution.
3. Possible New Weapons and Armor
If the event mirrors previous ones, here’s what to expect:
- Meteor-based sword or weapon (possibly a “Meteor Blade” or “Infernal Meteor Cleaver”)
- Meteor Armor Set with fire or cosmic themes
- Crafting could involve anvil or forge stations using meteorite fragments
There’s also speculation that meteor fragments may be used to upgrade existing gear — a long-requested feature by players.
Event Badges (Likely Additions)
Every event in 99 Nights in the Forest brings its own badge set. Based on past patterns, we may see:
- “Star Collector” — collect a certain number of meteor fragments
- “Fallen Fury” — defeat a boss-like meteor creature
- “Impact Survivor” — survive the full duration of the meteor event
- “Crash Chaser” — interact with a set number of meteor crash sites
Keep an eye on the badge menu after completing event milestones.
Ruby Chest Update
It’s been noted that ruby chest spawns feel rarer in recent patches. In this update, however, early reports suggest they’re still present — just slightly less predictable. Players are still finding them in common areas like swingsets or near camps, but the spawn rate seems tied to early-game RNG. If you’re a long-run survivalist, it might be worth resetting if you don’t find one early.
Admin Abuse Events
While not confirmed officially in patch notes, Admin Abuse sessions are rumored to be scheduled around 12 PM in-game time (real-world timing varies). These sessions often involve developers spawning in chaos, freebies, or bosses — and they’ve now added a code redeem system to support players who miss them due to bugs or crashes.
So far, no active codes have been confirmed for this update, but expect some drops in the Discord or community channels if issues arise.
Dev Feedback & Community Polls
One of the most appreciated things about this update is how directly it responds to community feedback. The developers recently ran a Discord poll asking what kind of content players wanted next — biome, feature, or event. The overwhelming majority picked “event,” and that’s exactly what we got.
Even more impressive, the devs added the long-requested code redemption system despite previously resisting the idea. That level of community care deserves recognition.
The Meteor Shower update is already proving to be one of the most visually interesting and mechanically promising events in 99 Nights in the Forest. With dynamic meteor landings, potential for corrupted mobs, and plenty of secrets to discover, there’s no better time to jump in and see what crashes from the sky.
Whether you’re hunting for meteorite, chasing badges, or hoping to craft a flaming sword from space, this event brings the excitement — and it’s only just begun.
