We're also happy to announce with this upcoming update (currently planned for June 1st), we've completed all of our roadmap bullet points for May! We are also hard at work for everything in the June and July+ sections. See below:

We expect that the max price of the game once it is out of Early Access and everything is said and done to be $9.99. This won't likely happen until much later in 2026, if not early 2027.

The intent for sharing these plans early is always to be transparent and honest with you folks, as you're the only reason we can do any of this to begin with. Thank you.

Now, on to the news for the SPECTRAL SHADOWS Update...

New Role: Spectre

Joining the Untainted is the Spectre! The Spectre's kit revolves around trusting others to support them. Even if it costs their life... This new role bring 2 new Ability Cards and one new Sigil.

Steam post image Sacrifice

(Ability Card, Redirect)

Anything targeting your target this turn is redirected to you instead.

Steam post image Spectral Blessing

(Ability Card, Randomized)

Choose a player to give 2 random cards to.

Steam post image New Sigil: Sigil of Shadows

The Spectre possesses the Sigil of Shadows, its original power belonging to [REDACTED]. When used, the Sigil allows you to pick 2 players and have every card used on them this turn fail.

New Item Cards

First we launched some cards considered... Whimsical. We think now is a good time for some useful cards, especially for helping with teamwork without being discovered.

Letter

(Epic, Information)

Another card we planned months ahead of launch. Letter does what you'd expect it to. You select a player and get to write down a short message to send to them privately. You can also sign as "Anonymous" if you don't want the recipient to know who it came from.

Finders Keepers

(Legendary, Randomized)

Finders Keepers is a simple Self-Use card. It allows you to collect 2 random cards that were used by anyone in the same turn. Maybe you'll get lucky and pull a DEATHMARK out of it...

Last Will

(Legendary, Convert)

Last Will can only be drawn once per player per game. Once you've got it, that's it. When used, whoever you choose will receive all of your cards when you die.

This update contains major changes to the charge rate of all Sigils to make them faster to earn, as well as a replacement for one of the Killer's ability cards. Keep an eye out for full patch notes, dropping Sunday May 31st.

The Spectre, along with the new Item Cards are launching on June 1st at 9:30 AM PST.

The shadows await you...
