1 Million Favorites Update
Miner's Haven reached 1 Million favorites on November 1st, 2019. OutOfOrderFoxy has a celebratory event planned that will run alongside the Halloween Event. Festivities include:
 * An exotic found in Mystery Boxes.

Trivia

 * The event will be the first update with submission curator OutOfOrderFoxy at the head of development. Game creator and long-time developer Andrew Bereza left the game after the Pizza Party event to focus on his new Roblox RPG title, Vesteria.
 * The update's release will signal the end to the seven-month update drought as the first update being released since the Pizza Party event. This means that this is the longest update drought in Miner's Haven's history.
 * With a total of 52 new available items added, Part I of the 2019 Halloween Event is the biggest update ever in Miner’s Haven.
 * However, if other unobtainable items that were added with Part I were considered, that would make the overall total item count rise to 61.
