Deceit 2

As our loyal fans we wanted you to be the first to know: next week we’ll be announcing Deceit 2 during Twitchcon EU 2022 in Amsterdam!

Deceit 2 is the next generation of Deceit, built from the ground up from everything we’ve learned since 2017, and will be launching on PC and consoles late this year. The Masquerade Event will be the bridge between the two games, with legendary outfits earnt during this event carrying over to Deceit 2.

We’ll be revealing more next week, alongside our teaser trailer, so keep your eyes peeled. In the meantime, take a look out at our FAQs and why not register for the beta on our website?

Make sure you pre-order your own Game Master. If you don’t, you’ll be left alone with the Terrors once the campaign is finished!



TwitchCon EU in Amsterdam

Next week the team will be headed to Amsterdam in the Netherlands, to attend TwitchCon EU.
We’re really excited to be going and talking to everyone about what’s coming with Deceit 2, and treat them to a photo opportunity with the Game Master.
If you’re attending TwitchCon EU, come and say hello to us in the Expo Hall!
Follow us on social media to see what we get up to.

Ranked

In May we released a post detailing our future plans for a rework of the Ranked game queue.

With Deceit 2 coming later this year, we will be holding off making any major changes to the mode for now. You can continue to give your feedback by commenting on the post - you can use the questions at the end as a jumping off point.

We hope you enjoy The Masquerade and we’ll see you in-game!
