DEATH NOTE Killer Within is an online social deduction game with cross-play support, where up to 10 players face a choice between life and death. Split into two teams, players must uncover each other’s identities to eliminate L or seize the Death Note from Kira. Kira and L are equally matched, each hiding their true identity while battling for control over the game. Engage in a game of wits either as Kira and his follower, or L and the investigators, as both sides vie for the hidden Death Note, leading to a thrilling showdown of truth and deception until one team prevails.
 
In DEATH NOTE Killer Within, players can assume one of four roles – Kira, Kira Follower, L, or Investigator – each offering unique gameplay characteristics. With each assigned role, players can develop a wide range of strategies, as randomised scenarios evolve into high-stakes games. Additionally, players can customise their nameplates, in-game avatars with up to seven types of accessories, and special effects displayed during key gameplay moments.
 
DEATH NOTE Killer Within will be launched on 5th November 2024 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC in Standard and Special Editions. The Special Edition includes the base game, Premium Customisation Track Vol. 1 and Accessory Pack.
