Identity V

What Identity V Is

Identity V is a role-playing horror game from NetEase Games built around uneven team matches. One player takes the role of a Hunter, while four Survivors work together to complete objectives and escape. It suits players who enjoy short competitive rounds, character-based abilities, and horror presented through a stylized setting rather than realistic violence.

How Matches Work

Survivors must cooperate while decoding cipher machines, avoiding the Hunter, and reaching the exit gate. The Hunter has a different goal: track the team, use their abilities, and stop the escape. The two sides play differently, so each match asks for separate tactics, whether you are coordinating with teammates or reading their movements as the opposing player.

Setting and Characters

The game frames its matches through a detective story involving a mysterious letter, an abandoned manor, and a missing girl. Its visual direction draws on gothic and Victorian influences. You can choose from multiple characters, with distinct roles and powers that support different approaches to pursuit, evasion, and teamwork. Maps also receive randomized adjustments between games, making familiar locations less predictable.
