Velan Studios has announced that Midnight Murder Club is coming to PS5 and PC as an Early Access title on March 13. Game director Eric Feurstein took to the PlayStation Blog to reveal details on the PS5 launch of the game, including a new game mode.
Joining Free for All, Thief in the Night, Team Deathmatch and Headhunters is the new Wildcards mode. The mode revolves around breaking established rules of the game to cause more chaos. Players get to pick cards in the Wildcards mode, each of which can have different effects on the game, from all players getting super speed to player deaths causing explosive flames.
Midnight Murder Club is also getting a Guest Pass Edition, which allows friends of players who already own the game to join in on the fun without having to buy a separate copy. Each person that buys a copy of Midnight Murder Club gets five Guest Pass Editions that they can give to their friends. The Guest Pass Edition features all current game modes and zero time limits.
Midnight Murder Club is a six-player shooter set in a pitch-black mansion. Players don’t have much in the way of light sources, and will have to figure out the positions of their opponents using unconventional means, like keeping an eye out for their muzzle flashes. Players will also have flashlights that have the unfortunate side-effect of giving their own positions away as well.
The PS5 release of Midnight Murder Club was originally announced all the way back in December 2024. The studio will also be taking feedback from its players as development on the game continues.
“As a member of the Midnight Murder Club, your opinion on the direction the club should go matters,” wrote Feurstein in the announcement. “We’re determined to evolve this game with the community as we continue developing through Early Access. We want your opinions and ideas, which will help shape our roadmap (which we’ll be sharing before launch!).”
Midnight Murder Club will be priced at $19.99.
