Dear visitors,
Welcome to Identity V!
Identity V will undergo maintenance on April 30, 2024, at 08:00 (UTC+8), and will take approximately 240 minutes to complete. During this time, players will be unable to log in to servers. We ask for your understanding and patience during maintenance.
- The server opening time will be postponed if maintenance is not completed within the estimated time. We thank you for your understanding.
April 30 Update Overview
[Season Essence]
- Season 31 Essence 3 is now available. New costumes include the [S-rarity Costume] - Spirit Fox, [A-rarity Costume] Coordinator - Skeleton Key, and [A-rarity Costume] Clerk - Strikethrough. At 80/130/180 draws, players will receive [Portrait] Clerk - Strikethrough, [Portrait] Coordinator - Skeleton Key, and [Portrait] Fire Investigator - Spirit Fox, respectively.
[New Character]
Survivor
Name: Florian Brand
Identity: Fire Investigator
[External Trait] Inflatable Airbag
Florian carries 2 asbestos airbags and a utility box filled with chemical solutions.
Inflation
Florian injects chemical solutions into his airbag, triggering a chemical reaction that rapidly inflates the airbag to match its surroundings. The inflated airbag repels all characters within range.
Repulsion
Florian's airbags are highly elastic. When inflated to a certain degree and then squeezed by a Survivor, they can propel the survivor up to 9.6 meters.
Deflation
Florian has designed an easy-to-operate exhaust method for his airbags. Survivors can deflate the inflated airbags, causing them to rapidly shrink and lose their size. The deflated airbags will remain in place, and only Florian, who is familiar with their structure, can pick them up again to replenish his airbag count.
Destruction
By virtue of the special materials used in their creation, Florian's airbags have excellent resilience and can only be destroyed when struck with 1 charged Hunter attack. Their formidable repulsive properties will also cause the Hunter to recover more slowly after attacking. However, destroyed airbags cannot be recovered.
Expertise
Florian's expertise allows him an airbag repulsion cooldown of 10 seconds.
Ordinary Survivors have a cooldown of 15 seconds when using airbags for repulsion.
[External Trait] Temporary Threshold Shift
Florian's hearing has been impaired due to prolonged exposure to high-decibel noises, which makes it difficult for him to concentrate while decoding. His ability to focus is only restored when he is in environments without disruptive noise sources.
Florian's Decoding Speed is reduced by 10%. When restraining Hunters, Florian's Decoding Speed gradually increases by up to 15%.
[External Trait] Firefighting Training
Florian's dedication goes beyond post-incident investigations, as he has intentionally honed his skills to execute rescues during life-threatening fires.
Florian's Interaction Speed increases by 10%. After using repulsion, Florian gains a 50% Speed Boost that lasts for 2 seconds.
Fire Investigator's Deduction Quest is now available. Complete the Deduction Quest to obtain the Fire Investigator's Worn Clothes as a reward.
