ROADMAP


About This Game

Immerse yourself in NightSpawn, a heart-pounding multiplayer horror experience playable in first-person or third-person perspective. Join the enigmatic Hollowgate Society—a group of investigators dedicated to uncovering the truth behind the paranormal—and gather your courage to face unimaginable terrors. Collaborate with up to three friends in this escape room-style adventure, or dive into thrilling PvP gameplay that will test your wits and survival instincts.

As investigators, you and your team find yourselves trapped in a nightmarish location. To survive, you'll need to scavenge for essential tools, solve intricate puzzles, and cleverly use your resources—all while relentlessly pursued by monstrous entities.

Choose your approach wisely. The items you discover can have multiple uses, you must decide how best to use them. Keep on the lookout for ways to open up (or close off) locations around you. A fuse box could restore power and unlock a keypad -  or could be disabled to bypass hazardous electrical traps. Your decisions directly shape your chances of survival.

  • Escape the Nightmare (PvE): Work together with three other players to evade deadly AI-driven monstrosities and escape each haunting location.

  • Competitive Versus Mode (2v2 PvP): Face off against rival investigators in a tense, competitive environment that demands strategic cooperation and cunning.

  • Play as the Monster (Upcoming): Step into the shoes of terrifying creatures, turning the tables on investigators in this spine-chilling future mode.

Can you survive the horrors of NightSpawn, or will you become another victim to the darkness?

  • Build Your Character: Choose your character wisely! Each investigator specialises in a unique piece of equipment that can turn the tide in your bid for escape. 

  • Perks: Customise your characters to your playstyle with perks. As your favourite investigators get more experienced, they’ll unlock dozens of perks and hundreds of potential builds which give them an extra edge.

  • Relentless NightSpawn Monsters: The monsters of NightSpawn are merciless. Each location the Hollowgate Society investigators discover is host to its own nightmare creature. Inspired by legend, pop culture and horror classics - every creature is unyielding in its hunt for you.

  • Lock In: Your speed and skills will contribute to your overall score at the end of each game. Take on the leaderboards and forge a way to the top.

  • Tailored Thrills & Custom Challenges: Take on the horror at escalating levels of difficulty. Alternatively, make your game bespoke with customisable difficulty settings. Keep an eye out for converted Tarot cards, which can be played in subsequent matches, enabling bonus challenges and offering extra rewards.

Prepare yourself—NightSpawn awaits. Will you unravel the truth or succumb to eternal darkness?
