Just ahead of the launch of Death Note Killer Within we get to see how the deduction game will play and expand the story of Death Note
With the release of Death Note Killer Within happening on November 5th for the PS4, PS5, and PC, it might be a solid time for us all to actually learn how to play the game. Even if it is just another social deduction game, Grounding Inc has tried to add in a few things to help the title stand out from all of the other Bandai Namco manga/anime titles out there. Especially with the fanbase for Death Note in general and wanting something truly unique for the IP. That is where the latest look at the game is going to come in, as we get a solid breakdown of just how we are going to be expected to play the game out there. Let us dig into it all now.
As many might have guessed by now, Death Note Killer Within will play a lot like the other titles like it with players taking up the roles of Kira and a Kira follower in the game. The rest are going to be comprised of L and the various investigators at his disposal. Kira’s side will need to head out and learn what they can and then eliminate the investigators while L and the crew try to figure out who the actual killers are and destroy the Death Note. All by watching and sharing information in the game and trying to figure out who is being honest and lying. An interesting take to allow for all of this and with a few other twists added in. Twists you can get a better idea of in the following video that we have for the game. Have a look and get your brains fired up.
Death Note Killer Within — How To Play
Death Note Killer Within is an online social deduction game for up to 10 players. Players will be split into two teams with different objectives. To win the game, players will need to figure out each other’s identities and either eliminate L who threatens Kira’s power, or seize the Death Note.
- Enjoy a battle of wits as Kira and his followers or as L and the investigators in the world of Death Note. As equally matched opponents, the two teams clash to control the game while hiding their true identities from each other. The Death Note is hidden among the players, leading to a thrilling game of cat and mouse until one team overpowers the other.
- Each role has its own characteristics, allowing you to master a deep sense of strategy and tactical play. Depending on your assigned role, a wide range of strategies can be formulated, and each randomized scenario develops into a high-stakes game of tactics.
- Supports cross-play for large groups of players.
- Customize your game avatar with up to seven types of unlockable items, pick a custom nameplate, and select a special animation to be displayed during dramatic moments of gameplay.
Are you planning on picking up this part of the Death Note saga when it launches tomorrow or will you be holding off for now? How easy is it going to be to lie about things in the game and will there be easy ways to figure all of that out? Will the customization options play a role in things or will we all just accept having a cute Ryuk on our shoulders does not mean we are Kira from the start? Rush on down to the comments to discuss all of this and get ready for the fun of tomorrow. There is more on the way for Death Note Killer Within, I am sure, and we will share all that we can for the game. Keep an eye out for those updates and many, many more as we wrap up this year in style.
