In a twist no one saw coming, Square Enix has announced Killer Inn, a bizarre but intriguing-looking impostor game in the vein of Among Us. Like any impostor game, the goal is to uncover who the real murderers are, but the twist here is that two teams will be competing against — and shooting at — each other. Killer Inn seems pretty complicated, but Inverse had the chance to see a short digital briefing that unpacked how it works.
Killer Inn is published by Square Enix and developed by Tactic Studios, the team behind multiplayer strategy title Immortal Empire and first-person puzzle game Claire de Lune. Killer Inn is something new for the studio, and pretty different from other impostor games too, with the studio describing it as a “murder-mystery” game.
