Characters

In Identity V , there are two distinct roles to play and multiple characters in each role to choose from.

Hunters and Survivors have their own strengths, weaknesses and unique abilities. Every Character has their own play style and customization options. Most characters have their own deduction tasks, with the exception of Lucky Guy and new survivors that have not gotten deductions yet.

Two to three new Characters are added every season and can be obtained by purchase from the Illusion Hall or getting their Limited S-Tier Costume from the respective season's essence.
