Overview

  • After five months in Early Access that peaked at around 178 concurrent Steam players, Velan Studios rolled out Midnight Murder Club 1.0 on August 14.
  • The release brings formal crossplay between PlayStation 5 and PC plus cross-progression to unify player inventories across platforms.
  • The new Graveyard Shift mode offers single-player and two-player PvE missions where teams cleanse cursed relics while dodging demonic threats.
  • A Wildcards mechanic equips hosts with dozens of rule-bending cards spanning Game Modes, Toys, Blessings, Curses and environmental hazards to create unpredictable match variations.
  • The Guest Pass system allows friends to join sessions for free whenever at least one participant owns the game, aiming to lower entry barriers.
