Subjects,

This update brings Halloween to Deceit 2, a new Daily Challenges system,  improves Custom mode with smarter bots, and adds a range of gameplay fixes and presentation improvements.


FEATURED

HALLOWEEN EVENT

Halloween has arrived, with an updated shop, loading screen, menu music, and themed cosmetics. Look out for a new Yandere Nina skin and a Bang O’Lantern Cowboy skin, along with some tasty new item cosmetics for the Bear Trap, Decoy and Earmuffs!


DAILY CHALLENGE

There’s a new reason to return to the ritual each day. The Challenges menu brings together Daily, Weekly, and Lifetime challenges, with cards that show your progress and the rewards you can earn.

Complete objectives as you play, then return to the menu to collect your rewards. You can preview what’s available, follow your weekly progress, and look back through your challenge history.


CUSTOM MODE IMPROVEMENT

It’s now easier to start a standalone game from the menu. We’ve made it clearer when you’re entering Practice mode and improved the game-found, loading, role-selection, and end-of-game flows.

Bots are also better at completing tasks, repairing sabotages, escaping, inspecting players, using Terror abilities, recovering as survivors, and making deductions and voting decisions.

We hope you enjoy the Halloween update. See you in the next match.
