Dear Visitors,
Welcome to Identity V
To ensure smooth operation, Identity V will issue a hotfix on Thursday at 08:00 (UTC+8).
This week's maintenance will be replaced by a hotfix. The hotfix will begin on December 4, 2025, at 08:00 (UTC+8), during which most of the game modes will remain available, including Quick Match, Custom Mode, Events, and Logic Path. (Note: The entrance to Ranked Match will be closed during the hotfix. However, Ranked Matches already in progress will not be affected.)
After 10:30 (UTC+8), players will have to exit the game to receive the latest patch. All game modes will be back online once the latest patch is installed (may be postponed should there be any issues).
After 11:00 (UTC+8), players who haven't installed the latest patch will be forced out of the server, and they will be able to play again after restarting the game client (may be postponed should there be any issues).

Casual Mode
Final Blowout
[Final Blowout] is now available for a limited time.
This update expands the range of Common Cards and introduces a new set of character-exclusive cards, each tailored to the unique mechanics of specific characters. Together, they provide greater variety and flexibility in deck-building.
You can access this mode through the event page in the main menu. Playing it will earn you event tokens—"Records," which can be exchanged for rewards in the Event Shop.
Features:
This mode introduces a card-drawing phase, featuring Turning Point Cards, to standard 1v4 matches. Turning Point Cards can enhance character abilities, provide additional items, or introduce powerful special mechanics. Turning Points occur during the preparation phase before the match begins and at critical moments in the match, such as when a Survivor is placed on Rocket Chair, eliminated, or when the Exit Gate is about to be opened. If none of these events occur within a specified timeframe, a 60-second countdown will begin to guarantee a card draw.
Some Turning Point Cards, when combined with Character Traits and Talents, can produce surprising effects. Players can adapt their choices based on the situation on the field.
Maps available: Arms Factory, Red Church, Sacred Heart Hospital, Lakeside Village, Moon River Park, Leo's Memory, Eversleeping Town, Chinatown, and Darkwoods.
This game mode includes specific adjustments for certain characters. For instance, the Toy Merchant's Toy Container mechanism is partially restricted; Survivors will not start with a Toy Container, but there is no limit on how many Toy Containers can be picked up. For more details, click the icon in the top right corner of the matchmaking interface.
Final Blowout supports daily and weekend battle statistic tasks.
Final Blowout also supports Custom Keybinds.
Availability: December 4, 2025 (after maintenance) - December 17, 2025, 23:59

Penalties for Violations
It has recently come to our attention that a small number of players have violated our Code of Conduct through delaying tactics, match-fixing, maliciously taunting the Hunter, intentionally losing, idling, playing negatively, using cheats, cheating in Blackjack mode, obstructing matchmaking in top-ranked matches, cheating in Copycat mode, displaying aggressive attitudes, using extreme language, and creating maps in Scribbled Ideas that violate our Creator Agreement—all of which significantly affect the experience of other players. We have begun issuing penalties for these violations in order to provide a healthy gaming environment for everyone. We also encourage you to use the in-game reporting system when encountering any of the behaviors above. Let us work together to maintain order and integrity in the Manor.
