    Give Me The Brief:
    Deceive Inc is a single life game of social deduction, espionage and spies, where the action gets more intense as the game progresses.

    Agents are tasked with:
    • Insertion into a villain's lair
      • Take on the identity of any person you see, from standard guests of our villains facility, to staff, guards and more as you search for “intelligence” to hack into closed doors and crack open safes
    • Infiltration
      • Get into the vault by finding and disabling the vault security terminals hidden throughout the lair
      • Race inside, and steal their most prized item, while trying not to stand out to your fellow spies... or do you use this chance to pair down the competition
    • Extraction
      • Now it is time to get out
      • Just watch out, every agent left is now gunning for you while you make your way to the extraction location of your choice and call in your ride

    The only problem, the other 11 agents fielded by Deceive Inc, are probably not your friends.

    In Solo: Only one spy brings home the pay
    In Teams: A team of 3 agents can work together, and members of your team can be revived once

    How many agents are there to watch out for?
    There will be 8 agents at launch with more planned to join their ranks post launch, with 10 spies entering a match either by themselves or in 4 teams of 3 agents each in teams.

    How many missions will there be at launch?
    There will be 4 missions available at launch, with their own unique location and villain. More missions and villains will be added post launch.

    When and where will we be deployed (Launch Date + Platforms)
    Deceive Inc hopes to deploy agents officially on March 21st 2023 on PC (Steam and Epic Game Store), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S and X. The launch time is 11 AM EST globally on all platforms.

    How much does it cost to join the ranks of Deceive Inc?
    $19.99 for the base edition and $29.99 for the Black Tie Edition

    Is the game Cross Platform?
    Yes, agents will be matched with rivals from other platforms if they so choose. They can even team up with them in teams with cross platform parties. However, there is no cross progression/save system.

    Will There Be Private Lobbies?
    Not on launch day, but it is something we know there is a demand for and the team hopes to be able to provide this in a future update.

    What changes are coming?
    Be sure to check the announcements for the latest Intel Briefs!

    Catalog Brief

    With the introduction of the all-new catalog system, we wanted to give a quick run-down of how to interact with it and how its rewards work.

    When playing any matches, all exp gains will also go toward unlocking catalog tokens. You can hold up to 10 catalog tokens at a time, so don’t forget to go spend them in the season section of the main menu!

    Every page of the catalog has 5 unlockable slots. Every slot costs 1 token to complete. Free users will only unlock the reward for free slots, but they can still spend a token on a premium slot to gain catalog progression. After unlocking 3 slots, you will gain access to the next page.

    Every premium item unlocked without the premium catalog will be granted retro-actively if you decide to buy the premium catalog later on.

    Unlocking all 50 slots in the catalog will give you access to the completion rewards listed on the final page.

    The premium catalog will NEVER expire. You will be able to buy Misery Empire anytime in the future to complete it and earn its rewards.


    Catalog tokens will be the same for ALL catalogs. You can already hoard 10 tokens for the next catalog if you wish to do so!
