Wurgen & the Werewolf
Our second map, Wurgen, is now available to explore in game. Along with this, our first DLC, the Werewolf Pack is available to purchase and with it you’ll get:- Our second Terror, the Wyrtorn
- Our second Curse, The Chemist
- Exclusive item: Ball & Chain
The Wyrtorn
Resurrected from the brink of extinction through a groundbreaking scientific discovery in Germany, the Wyrtorn are unyielding in their pursuit of blood. Sparing no one, their three unique abilities give a new twist to playing as the Terror. The Wyrtorn has three unique abilities: Maim, Howl and Hunt. Sprint at incredible speeds, and if you time it right, jump further to tackle your prey. This jump attack will help you whittle down Innocents’ Sanity with every bite, and you can disorient them with your Howl to make it harder for them to get away in the first place.Curse: The Chemist
Our new Curse, The Chemist, joins the Mimic in the array of ways you can cause chaos and change up the game. As the Chemist, you’ll be spreading your poison among the group without them knowing who is responsible. Your goal is to poison all of the Innocents and Infected, and you’ll have to make sure everyone is poisoned to win!New Map: Project Wurgen*
Explore the dark secrets of the macabre facility that carelessly resurrected the Wyrtorn Werewolf in the name of science—Project Wurgen. With a new map comes new tasks to complete to release those all-important souls. We wanted to give you some idea of the kinds of tasks you can find and complete to escape from this macabre facility. There’s an old-fashioned (or back in fashion?) vinyl player and a wine cabinet that hint at the luxury of the project’s founders. You’ll find bunsen burners and a decontamination room that you’d expect in a laboratory. But you’ll also find cages and cloning tanks that speak to the true cruelty that was inflicted in the name of science. With a whole new array of tasks to get familiar with, which will be your new favourite? *This map is free for all players.
We’re so excited to see your reaction and feedback to our newest Curse, our Werewolf Terror and Wurgen Map - send us your gameplay clips on Discord and social media.
We’ve got so much more coming to Deceit 2: you can read about Titles below in our section about Accolades but that’s not all!
This pre-season test period on Steam will be the quiet before the storm: Seasons are coming to Deceit 2! Each season will last 2 months and be themed with exclusive cosmetic rewards. Keep an eye out for more information on our first Season - Humble Beginnings - coming soon.
We’ve started work on The Crypt - sounds creepy, right? The Crypt is an exciting new minigame coming with the console release where you’ll be able to unlock rewards. Currently in game - new players will find themselves taken to the Crypt after levelling as human to unlock an item, or a mutation when levelling as infected. In the future, when the Crypt is ready to open its doors to everyone, you’ll find cosmetics for your characters and items in there, and you’ll unlock them using key fragments, which you’ll earn in Deceit 2’s Seasons. For existing players, to make sure you don’t go without for all your work and hard-earned hours in Deceit 2 so far, we’ll be exchanging the Favour you’ve already earned for key fragments at the upcoming console release. So get ready to spend, spend, spend!
We’ll also be continuing to work on your feedback, the UI, custom options, and game performance and optimisations. There will be even more to explore as we keep updating Deceit 2.
Along with the Free to Play launch on Steam we’ve also made significant changes to the game’s meta systems. Read on for more details!
Menu & UI update
Our menu and UI rework continues: we’ve got a new menu scene and loading screens, and the UI in the game has changed too. We’ve continued our pacing work to make the game move faster when going from the Inbetween back to Reality: executions can be seen across the map with outlines of the poor player who got sacrificed. We have also reworked Second Sight (default Q) to enable you to vote on other players during the Reality phase: with enough votes, a player will be eliminated. No more rushing to the other side of the map to get that crucial final vote in: now you can make your decision remotely. We’ve also added a blocking feature inside player menus - click on someone’s profile in the End of Game scene or in the lobby and click ‘Block player’. We want our players to be safe and enjoy their time in the game, so if there is someone you don’t like playing with, this will stop you being matchmade with them.New skins!
We’ve got two new skins in Deceit 2! You can go on a sweet, sweet rampage as the Chocolate Bunny Experiment Terror, and bounce around the Ritual in a skin for Jak created by Ohmwrecker! You can purchase these skins for 600 shillings in game. And that Golden Dragon Egg you worked so hard for during the Lunar New Year Event - it’s hatched! Roar with excitement as you find it in your Werewolf skins.
