Death Note Killer Within, a 10-player “online social deduction game” based on the Death Note series, has been announced with a November 5 release date and an announcement trailer. It will be out on PS5, PS4, and Steam.
Here’s how PlayStation Blog describes it:
Players will be split into two teams with different objectives. To win the game, players will need to figure out each other’s identities and either eliminate L who threatens Kira’s power or seize the Death Note. Enjoy a battle of wits as Kira and his followers, or as L and the investigators in the world of Death Note. As equally matched opponents, the two teams clash to control the game while hiding their true identities from each other. The Death Note is hidden among the players, leading to a thrilling game of cat and mouse until one team overpowers the other. Each role has its own characteristics, allowing you to master a deep sense of strategy and tactical play. Depending on your assigned role, a wide range of strategies can be formulated, and each randomized scenario develops into a high-stakes game of tactics.
Death Note Killer Within will also be part of PlayStation Plus’ next monthly offering of games, which includes Ghostwire: Tokyo and Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 – Turbocharged. The game’s Steam store page lists Grounding Inc. as the developer.
