Independent studio World Makers has unveiled a bold first person horror action game with sandbox elements and multiplayer called Deceit 2. A trailer opened the reveal, offering a glimpse of a tense, atmospheric experience that blends social deception with fast paced action.
The game centers on nine strangers who find themselves trapped together. Two of them carry a terrifying secret that the others must uncover before it seals their fate.
Deceit 2 positions itself as a social psychological horror title for six to nine players. Two participants are infected from the start. The rest must cooperate to survive a looming ritual and uncover the conspirators among them. Trust is scarce, and suspicion travels quickly as players try to deduce who is purely human and who is manipulating events from the shadows.
To achieve their objective, players will need to master manipulation, misdirection, and strategic deception. Infected players can activate mysterious altars that bend reality and transport the group into a parallel world. Within this altered realm, the ordinary heroes are more vulnerable, yet they gain the chance to overturn the balance if they can push the infected back and outsmart them in this new environment.
The exact release date for Deceit 2 has not been disclosed. The game is being developed for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, with Steam already listing a page for the project. The concept emphasizes a tense, communal struggle where trust is as valuable as any weapon, and every choice can change the course of the game world.
Deceit 2 continues the studio’s exploration of claustrophobic experiences where social dynamics drive the action as much as the mechanics themselves. Players should expect rapid rounds, evolving situations, and a constant negotiation of loyalties as the group attempts to discern friend from foe under pressure.
Note: game details and platform availability are subject to change as development progresses. The project aims to deliver a robust multiplayer horror that challenges players to read each other, adapt quickly, and survive the escalating chaos that follows when the veil between realities briefly thins.
