Death Note: Killer Within is an online social deduction game that will transport you into L and Kira’s cat and mouse chase. 

Coming November 5 to the Playstation and PC, fans of the hit Anime series Death Note will get to experience first hand what it's like to either hunt down the mysterious Kira or become the god of the new world in Death Note: Killer Within.

Featuring a PVP system with 10 players, Death Note: Killer Within will place you in the team of either Kira and his followers, or L and his dedicated Kira task force. Now in a battle of wits and strategy, you must find out your fellow players’ identities to find the hidden Death Note.

Its concept is similar to Among Us, but takes the idea of social deduction to a different level with the stakes involved. Will Kira prevail, or will L save the world? 

The game features a top-down visual style, employing controllable figurines stylised to mimic Near’s figurine toys in the show, and will take on roles that have unique characteristics. Each role will allow players to experience different kinds of gameplay to formulate various strategies, giving way to an atmospheric experience similar to the Anime. 

Death Note: The Killer Within will include a cross-play support and voice chat feature, making it so that every game play is immersive and guaranteed to be a fun time for everyone involved. Game avatars are also customisable, with up to seven types of unlockable items to use. Special animations can also be selected to be displayed during dramatic moments in the game.
