Event Overview
An Apocalypse Rising 2 event can mean a limited challenge, a seasonal update, or a random event that appears during play. This matters because events can combine survival objectives, unusual locations, infected encounters, loot, and cosmetic rewards.
The Apocalypse Rising Wiki groups related pages under its Event category. Its listed topics include Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, The Drying, Medal Quest, Takeover Event, seasonal zombies, and the Roblox 20th Anniversary Event.
The Hunt: Roblox 20 challenge was one event that sent players into Apocalypse Rising 2 to complete survival-based objectives. Players needed to explore, collect equipment, fight zombies, and stay alive long enough to finish the requirements.

A YouTube source covering an anniversary update says Dual Point Interactive brought back a classic Apocalypse Rising 1 map, reimagined, in celebration of Roblox’s 20th anniversary.

The Hunt: Roblox 20 Objectives
The Hunt challenge in Apocalypse Rising 2 had three main quests: Find the Loot, Zombie Hunter, and Explore and Survive. Completing them was necessary for the related badge and UGC claim process.
Find the Loot required three equipment types. There was no required weapon model or backpack; any suitable items counted. The source identifies melee weapons as the most difficult of the three categories to find.
| Quest | Requirement | Source details |
|---|---|---|
| Find the Loot | Backpack | Search and loot buildings |
| Find the Loot | Primary weapon | Any suitable primary weapon counted |
| Find the Loot | Melee weapon | Junkyard and the destroyer shipwreck on the starter island could have melee weapons |
| Zombie Hunter | Kill five zombies | Villages and checkpoints were suggested places to find zombies |
| Explore and Survive | Walk 5,000 steps | Keep moving around the map |
| Explore and Survive | Witness a sunrise or sunset | Remain alive through a day-to-night or night-to-day transition |
The Zombie Hunter quest required five zombie kills. Zombies could be found around villages and checkpoints. The guide states that a pistol headshot can deal 100 damage, allowing a zombie to be defeated in one shot.
Explore and Survive combined movement with survival. The first part was reaching 5,000 steps. The second was seeing a sunrise or sunset, which completed automatically when the player remained alive through the relevant transition.
A separate video source describes the same quest structure and emphasizes that the three collected supplies were one primary weapon, one backpack, and one melee weapon. It says primary weapons and backpacks could be found in buildings, military bases, or larger areas of the map.
Completing the Hunt Challenge
The central risk during this Apocalypse Rising 2 event was losing progress by dying. The Sportskeeda guide warns that death can reset progress, especially when fighting several zombies at once. The video source similarly says the collection objective had to be completed in one run and that death by a zombie or another player required starting over.
A cautious route can help keep the requirements manageable:
- Loot buildings for a backpack and primary weapon early.
- Search the junkyard or destroyer shipwreck on the starter island if a melee weapon is still missing.
- Look around villages and checkpoints for zombies.
- Avoid letting several zombies surround you.
- Travel through open areas while building steps, so nearby zombies or players are easier to notice.
- Stay alive until the game changes from day to night or night to day.
The objective order is flexible in practice because exploring for equipment also adds movement. The important limitation from the sources is survival: losing the run can undo the work already completed.
| Challenge step | What to do | Important caution |
|---|---|---|
| Gather equipment | Obtain a backpack, primary weapon, and melee weapon | A melee weapon may take longer to locate |
| Hunt zombies | Defeat five zombies | Avoid being surrounded |
| Explore | Accumulate 5,000 steps | Open areas can improve visibility |
| Survive a transition | Stay alive for sunrise or sunset | The requirement completes automatically |
| Finish the event path | Complete the Hunt hub requirement too | Both parts were needed for the reward claim |
After the three Apocalypse Rising 2 quests, players also needed to complete the 2013 Challenge Hub quest in The Hunt: Roblox 20. Completing both parts awarded the Biting BLOXikin Badge.
To claim the Biting BLOXikin UGC item, the guide instructs players to return to the 2013 Challenge area in The Hunt: Roblox 20, find the platform behind the NPC, and interact with it. The source specifically says to make sure both the hub quest and Apocalypse Rising 2 objectives are finished before attempting the claim.
Random and Seasonal Events
Random Events are occurrences in Apocalypse Rising 2 where locations that are not permanently on the map may generate. According to the Apocalypse Rising Wiki, most contain Infected, weaponry of many varieties, and other loot.
The wiki notes that many SPECIAL weapons may only be obtained from random event infected. It gives the “Sweeper” Desert Eagle as an example. Military events can be tracked using the military field radio.
The same source cautions that none of the event names on its list are official. That is useful context when players compare terms used by community guides, maps, or other players.
