Residence Massacre April Fools 2026 — Multiversal Returns

Joke modifier week from April 1–19, 2026: old collab nights, a 3,000 Coin tripmine, then the hangover patch.

Last updated:

April Fools 2026 Event

Tea Studio ran April Fools 2026 as a limited Multiversal replay, not a new mainline night. The window opened April 1, 2026 and closed with the Post-April Fools patch on April 19, 2026. If you queued Place 14437001043 that week and saw Jerry, Winterhorn, fridge Noodles, or a Subspace Tripmine that suddenly cost 3,000 Coins, this page is the ledger. The embedded video is a real April 1, 2026 pub run — collab modifiers stacked on the Night 1 house, not a factory blizzard.

Residence Massacre remains online co-op. PvP stayed removed (January 9, 2026). Currency was already Coins in April; the TIX rename came later in August 2026. There were no promo codes. Treat this event as joke difficulty, the same policy as Anomalies FAQ: April Fools enemies are not Night 4 lore.

What went live on April 1

Community and wiki notes match the official Updates dump:

  • Multiversal modifier returned for a limited time (the same April Fools stack used in 2025).
  • Old limited badges came back for the window — including routes tied to Weird Strict Residence (Jerry / weird strict dad collab) and Night Before The Massacre / Night Before the Blizzard (Winterhorn when you stack Multiversal + Blizzard).
  • Subspace Tripmine dropped from the joke 999,999 Coins tag to 3,000 Coins for the duration.

The house still used Night 1 systems after the later Night 1 Rework is a different year. In April 2026 you were on the pre-rework residence: windows, generator, cameras — plus collab gimmicks. Modifiers still documents Multiversal / Jerry as April Fools only so you do not confuse it with live Thunderstorm or House Chaos.

Collab kit (what the video is doing)

PieceRole
JerrySleeping roommate / strict-dad joke threat on Multiversal Night 1
WinterhornMutant stand-in when Multiversal and Blizzard are on — Ski Resort / Night Before the Blizzard collab
NoodlesFridge item: cook on the stove (~8s), eat to refill hunger on the joke meter
Mysterious ManMidnight cutscene figure behind a tree, then leaves

Do not farm these as Mutation percent. Limited April Fools badges sit on a seasonal row of the Badge Tracker and Badges. Raver is a 75% milestone after Outfit Changes, not this event.

April 19 hangover patch

When the joke week ended:

  • April Fools event closed.
  • Subspace Tripmine price jumped back to 999,999 Coins (still the live Coins Shop joke row).
  • Emergency lights were added in The Bunker — a real QoL leftover, not a prank. If you last ran Miner before April 19, expect extra lighting in outage halls.

That Bunker light pass is why veterans still search “April Fools 2026” months later: they want the date the memory got less pitch-black, not Jerry clips.

How it fits the 2026 calendar

Night 4 did not ship in April. Anniversary 2026 is a Party TV sneak peek in August, unrelated to Multiversal.

How to play it if it returns

Tea Studio has brought Multiversal back more than once. If Discord lights it up again:

  1. Read Modifiers Multiversal notes before stacking Blizzard.
  2. Assign a stove cook for Noodles if hunger is on.
  3. Treat Winterhorn like The Mutant with worse audio tells.
  4. Buy the cheap tripmine only during the sale — 999,999 is not a farm goal.
  5. Ignore Trello “April Fools codes.” Trello does not exist; Active Codes stays empty.

April Fools 2026 was a rerun with a shop sale and a Bunker light pass. Keep the dates; throw away the fan wikis that still describe Night 2 as a snow house.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Residence Massacre survivors.

When was Residence Massacre April Fools 2026?

The Multiversal event ran April 1, 2026 and ended with a post-event patch on April 19, 2026 that restored the 999,999 Coin tripmine price and added Bunker emergency lights.

What is Multiversal in Residence Massacre?

A limited April Fools modifier on Night 1 that pulls collab jokes (Jerry, Winterhorn with Blizzard, Noodles). It is not part of the live modifier list after the event.

Why is Subspace Tripmine 999,999 Coins?

That is the joke price outside April Fools. During April 1–19, 2026 it cost 3,000 Coins, then jumped back.

Did April Fools 2026 add Night 4?

No. Night 4 is still unreleased. The event only returned joke modifiers and old limited badges.

Are Jerry and Winterhorn still in the game?

Only if Tea Studio re-enables Multiversal. After April 19, 2026 they were event-locked again.
