Square Enix has announced that Killer Inn, the thrilling multiplayer murder mystery action game, will launch into Early Access on February 12, 2026, on PC via Steam.
 
As Killer Inn enters the Early Access stage of its development, the development team will actively seek player input to further refine the game ahead of its official release. The game will be available to purchase at the special Early Access price of $9.99. The game’s price will increase upon its official release, so players are encouraged to take advantage of this special early-bird pricing. Optional in-game cosmetic purchases will also be available.

Killer Inn is a murder-mystery action game set in a world where the minority team of wolves fights the majority team of lambs. Set in a mysterious old castle, 24 players engage in a life-or-death battle of deception. Wolves must disguise themselves amongst the lambs, taking them down one by one. The lambs collect clues (hair, fingerprints, clothing, etc.) left behind at the murder scenes to narrow down the wolves and eliminate them. Enjoy a battle between detectives and murderers as if you have wandered into the world of a mystery drama.
 
Killer Inn is a collaborative project between TBS GAMES, the game business brand of TBS Television, and Square Enix. Combining the entertainment field know-how of both companies, they plan to bring a new experience to customers inside and outside Japan with this brand-new IP.
