New map:

White Sand Street Asylum started out as a rundown house and gradually became a trusted medical facility in the area under Father Duke's management. People believe that patients are well cared for by medical professionals in a well-managed and salubrious place. Therefore, when the asylum was shut down, no one looked into the matter until now. White Sand Street Asylum has reopened. This time, people will have to face what actually happened here in the past.

Update Notice [Mar. 28 2019] [Identity V] will be updated on March 28, 2019 (UTC+8). The following content is for reference only, and the content of the actual maintenance notice shall prevail.

  • Some of Hell Ember's skills will be adjusted.
  • Some of Explorer's skills will be adjusted and redesigned.
Patch Notes - March 28, 2019
Maintenance content for this week:

Character Adjustments:

Hell Ember's Skills Adjustments:

  • Duration of Phantoms have been slightly extended;
  • Tap the skill button again while the skill is active to recall Phantoms. After recalling Phantoms, a percentage of Rage will be recovered according to the remaining time;
  • Slightly increased Hell Ember's vaulting speed;
  • Phantoms' attacks now will increase Hell Ember's Presence;
  • Optimized Phantoms' AI with improved hit probability and hit rate;
  • Optimized Hell Ember's normal attack logic with reduced attack recovery probability when elements are struck and improved hit range;
  • Adjusted Puppets' rage mechanism. Puppets' rage now dissipates when hit.

Explorer's Skills Adjustments:

  • Fantasy: Carries around the novel, Gulliver's Travels, and can turn into a tiny Lilliputian after reading it. This also activates Treasure Hunt at the same time. He is undetectable by the Hunter's "radar" after shrinking, but cannot perform most actions. The locations of the Treasure is recorded in the book, and the page with the password can be found when you unearth it at those locations. Unearthing the password page will alert the Hunter. The password can be used to quickly decode half of the Cipher Machine. The Explorer is allowed to carry a maximum of two passwords, and leaving the Manor will cause players to drop them on the ground. Other Survivors are able to pick up and use them. Maps generate up to three locations with hidden treasure. Due to his love for books, this skill is not depleted when used.
  • Explore: Possesses superior survival skills and knows how to hide trails. Trail duration is decreased by 1 second. Vaulting obstacles will not alert the hunter (unchanged);
  • Curiosity: Extremely curious and often acts on a whim when decoding. The chance of triggering a calibration is increased by 30%, and the scope of success is decreased by 30% (unchanged);
  • Energy Reserves: Stop moving for 10 seconds to increase your movement speed by 40% for 1 second. This effect can only be triggered once every 80 seconds.

Priestess' Skills Adjustments:

  • The Priestess will now leave a residual image when passing through passages created by other Priestesses;
  • The number of passages the Priestess can restore in a single game is limited (Normal Mode 10 times, Duo Hunters Mode 20 times). Once the number of restored passages is reached, passages can no longer be restored;

Battle Point Adjustments:

  • Battle scores for Perfumer, Seer, Magician, and Mechanic have been adjusted and refined.

Perfumer Score Adjustments:

  • Reduced Perfumer Persistence bonus points, "Forget";
  • Added Perfumer Persistence bonus points, "Forgotten Pain". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: If attacked by the Hunter while Euphoria is active and Recalling after, the Perfumer will be awarded bonus points according to the time interval between Euphoria and Recall. The shorter the interval, the higher the bonus points;
  • Added Perfumer Persistence bonus points, "A Building Away". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: If players can skillfully use Euphoria and the height difference between terrain to widen the distance to the Hunter when being chased, the Perfumer will be awarded bonus points;
  • Added Perfumer Persistence bonus points, "A Step Away". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: If players can skillfully use Euphoria to extend the distance to the Hunter when injured, the Perfumer will be awarded bonus points. The wider the distance, the higher the bonus points;
  • Added Perfumer Achievement bonus points, "Three Lives". The trigger conditions of the bonus points are hidden and triggering it is relatively difficult. However, it will be displayed to the entire team when triggered. We hope all Detectives will manage to find it in the game. Meanwhile, this bonus is not available in Duo Hunters mode.

Seer Score Adjustments:

  • Adjusted Seer Friendliness bonus points, "Wings of Protection". The bonus points will now be awarded based on the time interval between the starting of the Owl's protection until the time the Owl is hit by the Hunter. The shorter the interval, the higher the bonus points;
  • Added Seer Friendliness bonus points, "Owl Support". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: The Seer gets a bonus point when he protects a teammate with the Owl;
  • Added Seer Achievement bonus points, "Change the Future". The trigger conditions of the bonus points are hidden and triggering it is relatively difficult. However, it will be displayed to the entire team when triggered. We hope all Detectives will manage to find it in the game. Meanwhile, this bonus is not available in Duo Hunters mode.

Magician Score Adjustments:

  • Reduced Magician Persistence bonus points, "Magical Escape";
  • Added Magician Persistence bonus points, "Trivial". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: If the Decoy is hit by the Hunter within a short period of time after creating a Decoy with a magic wand, the Magician will be awarded points according to the time interval between the creation of the Decoy and the time the Decoy was hit by the Hunter. The shorter the interval, the higher the bonus points;
  • Added Magician Achievement bonus points, "Lethal Magic". The trigger condition of the bonus points is hidden and triggering it is relatively difficult. However, it will be displayed to the entire team when triggered. We hope all Detectives will manage to find it in the game. Meanwhile, this bonus is not available in Duo Hunters mode.

Mechanic Score Adjustments:

  • Added Mechanic Persistence bonus points, "Puppetry". The conditions to obtain the bonus are: If the Puppet is hit by the Hunter within a short period of time after the Puppet is created, the Mechanic will be awarded bonus points based on the time interval between the creation of the Puppet and the time the Puppet was hit by the Hunter. The shorter the interval, the higher the bonus points;
  • Added Mechanic Achievement bonus points, "Winning Strike". The trigger conditions of the bonus points are hidden and triggering it is relatively difficult. We hope all Detectives will manage to find it in the game. Meanwhile, this bonus is not available in Duo Hunters mode.

  • [External Trait - Guard]: When a Hunter gets near the Enchantress, the Guard is triggered and the effects are stacked over time against the Hunter, granting the Enchantress the power to curse. The closer the Hunter gets to the Cursed Emblem, the faster the Guard effect stacks. The speed at which the Enchantress accumulates the Guard effect is reduced by 7% for each Guard stack (max. 70%) regardless of whether they have been detonated or not. The Enchantress will immediately gain 1 Guard stack if the Hunter inflicts damage to the Enchantress. The Guard effect on the Hunter has a maximum of 5 stacks;
  • [External Trait - Blessing]: Survivors healing the Enchantress or getting healed by the Enchantress will gain Enchantress' blessings. Blessings from the Enchantress are not replaceable and do not stack. Therefore, the Enchantress and the blessed Survivor will not gain protection from other Cursed Emblems. When a Hunter inflicts damage on a Survivor that has the Enchantress' blessings, the Enchantress will also gain a stack of Guard effect;
  • [External Trait - Karma]: Continuously inflicts pain on the Enchantress, and healing time is increased by 20%.

  • [External Trait - Dovlin]: Carries a wine barrel around to mix Strong Dovlin. Strong Dovlin can be drank when the Barmaid or Teammates are injured, but they will become Tipsy and their Fear will be reduced. The Barmaid also carries a bottle of D.U.P.H.R.I.N. Drinking it will increase the drinker's Fear by half. However, the D.U.P.H.R.I.N's Hard Drinker effect will also increase the drinker's Movement Speed by 50% for 2 seconds, and causes the consumer to be Tipsy and reduces their Fear. D.U.P.H.R.I.N's stimulation is strong, so it can't be drank when the Barmaid is injured. Additionally, the D.U.P.H.R.I.N cannot be shared with Teammates. Increased Fear due to Mixing and Strong Dovlin is not considered an injury and therefore does not trigger Panic, Deteriorate, Hunter's Instinct and Cowardly effects. [As the Coordinator and The Mind's Eye are below the drinking age, they will not be able to drink the Barmaid's Strong Dovlin. Demi Bourbon never serves anyone under the drinking age]
  • [External Trait - Mixing]: Mixing drinks costs energy. After mixing, the cost energy will immediately increase the Barmaid's Fear by half. However, the Barmaid will also gain 1 bottle of Strong Dovlin and become Tipsy, thus decreasing Fear. The maximum number for stored Dovlin is 1 bottle. Due to limited ingredients, only 2 bottles can be mixed in a single game. The D.U.P.H.R.I.N cannot be mixed in the Manor. The Barmaid is unable to mix when injured.
  • [External Trait - Tipsy]: Mixing or drinking the alcohol will put Survivors in a Tipsy state, and after it ends, Survivor's Fear will be decreased by half immediately. Mixing will cause Survivors to be Tipsy for 8 seconds. Drinking Strong Dovlin will cause Survivors to be Tipsy for 21 seconds. Consuming D.U.P.H.R.I.N will cause the Barmaid to be Tipsy for 8 seconds. However, if Survivors are hit when Tipsy, the effects will be immediately removed.
  • [External Trait - Hangover]: Whenever the Barmaid or other Survivors become Tipsy, their decoding speed will be decreased by 8% and the effects can be stacked up to 2 times.
