Welcome to the Midnight Murder Club
Midnight Murder Club is a heart-pounding multiplayer FPS where six masked players are tossed into the darkness of Wormwood Manor — armed with nothing but a flashlight, a revolver, and their wits. It’s a game of hide, seek, and shoot where visibility is scarce and paranoia runs high.
The only way to see is to turn on your flashlight — but doing so also gives away your position. That balance between seeing and being seen defines the pulse-pounding gameplay that’s made this indie horror-FPS a standout among asymmetrical multiplayer experiences.
What Makes It Special
⚫ Hide, Seek, and Shoot in the Dark
In the twisted corridors of Wormwood Manor, light is your friend and enemy. Each player must carefully decide when to flick on their flashlight and risk detection, or when to stumble blindly and hope their instincts (or ears) guide them.
🧠 Wildcards: Unpredictable Power-Ups
Every match becomes even more unpredictable with Wildcards. These rule-breaking cards allow players to:
- Shoot through walls
- Explode into flames upon death
- Hijack vending machines
- Add hilarious or horrifying twists mid-match
Wildcards don’t just spice things up — they redefine how you play.
🧨 Toys of Terror
Hidden across the manor are “Toys” — powerful tools and weapons that shift the balance of the match:
- Night vision pills for full visibility
- Bear traps for immobilizing foes
- Molotov cocktails for fiery chaos
- Bulletproof vests for an edge in duels
Each tool brings new strategies and unexpected moments — and when paired with Wildcards, no two rounds are alike.
Game Modes: Five Ways to Die Laughing
Midnight Murder Club offers five chaotic modes that emphasize both strategy and absurdity:
- Free-for-All
It’s every masked maniac for themselves in this classic deathmatch. Rely on your aim and ears — most kills wins. - Team Deathmatch
Coordinate flashlight flashes and ambushes as teams of three battle to outlast and outshoot the other. - Thief in the Night
Three teams of two must hunt for glowing skulls and bank them in vaults. It’s part heist, part horror, and full-on mayhem. - Head Hunters
Two players take on the role of “hunters,” hunting four “hunted” players who are trying to locate and destroy demonic totems. Trust no one. - Wildcard Mode
Everyone enters with their own unique Wildcards — giving buffs, chaos, and unpredictable conditions each round.
Open House Weekend – What You Need to Know
From Friday, May 2nd at 10am ET through Monday, May 5th at 10am ET, anyone can play the full game for free via the Guest Pass Edition.
You can:
- Play every game mode
- Matchmake online with randoms or friends
- Host or join public and private games
- Experience Wildcards and Toys in full
- Collect new Wildcards during matches
And here’s the kicker: you don’t need a paid host to join a match. Anyone with the Guest Pass Edition can fully participate — this is not a watered-down demo.
Future Content Roadmap
The game is currently in Early Access, and the developers have ambitious plans ahead:
Spring
- PvE Mode: Take on the mansion itself in a co-op experience against AI.
- New Wildcards: More madness to stack your deck with.
Summer
- New Toys: Additional gadgets and tools to change the game.
- Custom Games: Design your ideal match rules and settings.
Midnight Murder Club is steadily expanding — and this weekend gives you a full preview of what’s here now and what’s coming soon.
Why You Should Try It
If you’re a fan of games like Among Us, Propnight, or Phasmophobia, this one’s going to feel familiar but far more intense. The tension of complete darkness combined with the thrill of real gunfights, creative Wildcards, and the chaos of multiplayer proximity chat make for an experience that swings between terrifying and hilarious.
It’s the kind of game where:
- You laugh hysterically after accidentally shooting your friend
- You feel real dread hearing someone reload behind a door
- You shout “RUN!” and mean it
Midnight Murder Club isn’t just another multiplayer shooter. It’s a social horror sandbox where the line between comedy and catastrophe is as thin as a flashlight beam.
The Open House Weekend is the perfect opportunity to see what the Club is all about — without spending a dime. Grab your friends, download the Guest Pass Edition, and prepare for a weekend of dark halls, bad aim, and betrayal.
🔫 Play from May 2–5, and find out if you have what it takes to survive the night — or if you’ll become the next shriek in the darkness.
