Death Note Killer Within Patch V1.0.1 Details

The new stage, Toy Town, includes various new interactive elements and is based on the motif of Near’s toys, with toy trains running around the stage and buildings made up of dice.

Eagle-eyed fans can also see some elements from Death Note, such as Light Yagami’s watch and potato chips, hidden in various places. 

Check out some of the key areas in the Death Note Killer Within new level:

Train

Trains run between the North and South Stations at regular intervals. By taking the train, you can move quickly between the two stations. The train introduces some unique gameplay tactics – for example, you can use it as a convenient shortcut when moving around or to disrupt investigations and create alibis. 

Misa’s Room 

When players enter Misa’s room, surroundings become pitch black and your field of vision narrows. The player in Misa’s room is displayed as a black silhouette with a question mark (?) as their name, so it is impossible to identify who is in the room with you.

Kira can use this opportunity and area to carry out judgments without being seen by those around him, while L and investigators may be able to identify Kira if they keep a close eye on the players who frequently enter and leave Misa’s room. 

Special Criminal 

Kira can use a special method to judge criminals in Toy Town. He can judge players as a “blockade accident”, and this will in turn, block some of the paths in the stage. Use it at the right time to restrict the player’s actions and get an advantage! 

Binoculars 

You can use Binoculars on the North and South bridges to look out over the stage. It is a very powerful tool for spotting Kira and Kira Follower when they are using the Death Note or passing IDs. But please be careful while using it, you’ll be vulnerable during the process and can get your ID stolen by Kira or Kira Follower.

Additionally, Death Note Killer Within players will be receiving away a Cap (Black) in-game item for free to all players who install the update.

Death Note Killer Within is now available on PS4, PS5, and PC.
