Get ready to hunt down some spooky spectres! Midnight Ghost Hunt, a new 4v4 multiplayer game that puts you in the shoes of a ghost or a hunter, heads into Steam Early Access today. The game is being published by Coffee Stain and is being developed by Vaulted Sky Games. It was first introduced at E3’s PC Gaming Show back in June 2019, where it showed its first full trailer and announced its partnership with Coffee Stain after a few work-in-progress clips racked up millions of views on Reddit in November 2018 and March 2019.

The game itself looks set to be the ultimate in haunted hide and seek. Players can play as either ghosts or hunters, with the main premise being one of finding the ghosts before the witching hour begins, which is when they can turn and hunt the hunters. Ghosts can possess hide inside inconspicuous furniture and hurl themselves at invading hunters. In turn, the hunters must find and destroy all of the ghosts before the clock strikes midnight. This is when all dead ghosts return as vengeful spirits, and the hunters must try to survive the ghost onslaught until evac can arrive.

We can’t believe the day has finally come. As we played Midnight Ghost Hunt with testers throughout the closed betas, they’ve continually remarked on how much the game manages to improve on itself every time. Though we’re very happy with what we have, launching into Early Access gives us the chance to keep listening to everyone’s feedback as the game is opened to a huge new audience. I look forward to seeing you on the hunt!
