What? A party game mixed with a first-person shooter, in the dark.
When? March 13 for early access.

How? 20 dollars US, but if one person buys the game, five others can play with them for free!


What is this game?

It's a party game. Each player starts with a revolver and a flashlight in a dark mansion. The goal is to find and kill the other players. Every use of the flashlight is an opportunity to see what's happening, and it helps you get around, but it also makes you a target for other players. Proximity chat adds another dimension of fun, as you can hear everything from threats, to laughter, to muffled screaming coming from the room next to you. If you say it, and your friends are close enough, they'll hear you.


I know about the game from the beta. What has changed since then?

In addition to announcing the guest pass price structure, the developers have also added a wild cards system to change the gameplay in all sorts of random ways. You can read about the changes and additions in this PlayStation blog post: https://blog.playstation.com/2025/0...dated-wildcards-mode-and-guest-pass-detailed/


I don't like playing with random players. Is there bot support?

Yes, but it's limited at release. Improved bots are one of the first things the developers plan to add.


Is there PVE content, or is everything competitive PVP?

No PVE content at launch, but the developers plan to add it later.


What else is going to be added to this game?

This being early access, the developers have provided a roadmap of their intentions.

Funny how you can take out “murder” and it suddenly becomes about cars.
