Bandai Namco's new game, Death Note: Killer Within, is an Among Us-style social deduction game launching November 5th. Get ready for a thrilling game of cat and mouse where you'll either play as Kira, wielding the infamous Death Note, or as an investigator trying to stop him.
November 5th Launch and PlayStation Plus Availability:
This online-only game, developed by Grounding, Inc., will be available on PC (Steam) and PlayStation consoles (PS4, PS5). PlayStation Plus subscribers get early access as part of November's free games lineup, alongside Ghostwire: Tokyo and Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged. Cross-play is enabled for a wider player base. The price for non-subscribers remains unannounced, raising concerns about potential pricing issues similar to Fall Guys' initial launch.
Gameplay: Action and Deception:
The game features two phases mirroring Among Us: an Action Phase where players gather clues and perform tasks, and a Meeting Phase for discussion and voting. Kira secretly eliminates targets (NPCs or players), while investigators uncover clues and identify suspects. Kira players have followers who aid them via private communication and ID theft. L, the renowned detective, possesses special investigation abilities, including surveillance camera placement and strategic discussion guidance.
Customization options include seven types of accessories and special effects. Voice chat is highly recommended for effective teamwork (or dramatic accusations!).
Potential for Success:
The Death Note IP's popularity could help the game stand out in the crowded party game market. However, its success hinges on a competitive price point and engaging gameplay that captures both fans and newcomers. The potential for exciting streamer highlights and social media drama is significant.
