Shift At Midnight

Shift At Midnight is developed by Bun Muen and published by Kwalee. It released on July 22, 2026, for Windows via Steam, alongside Xbox Series X|S and Xbox Game Pass. Set behind the counter of a 1990s gas station, the game tasks up to three players with running the night shift while quietly working out which customers are still human.

À propos du jeu

Running the store comes first: players stock shelves, take deliveries, and keep the place clean to meet each night’s quota. However, every customer needs a second look, since some are doppelgangers wearing a human face. Checking ID, cross-referencing details on the computer, and watching for odd behavior all become part of the job, and missing a fake customer means they come back later in the shift to attack.

Once a doppelganger slips through, the tone shifts fast. Players barricade doors, lay traps, and hide as the creature returns in monstrous form, turning a calm retail simulation into a tense survival scramble. Thirteen randomly generated story shifts keep every playthrough different, and proximity chat means teammates hear tension build in real time rather than just seeing it on screen. A free Endless Mode update, planned for Q4 2026, will add new customers, weapons, traps, and monsters on top of the base campaign.

Caractéristiques principales

Randomly Generated Shifts: Thirteen story shifts pull from randomized customers and events, so no single night at the station plays out the same way twice.
Doppelganger Detection: Interrogate every customer using ID checks, computer records, and behavioral cues before letting them leave the store.
Barricade and Trap Defense: A missed doppelganger returns as a monster, forcing players to board up windows, set traps, and hide to survive.
3-Player Online Co-op: Proximity chat lets teammates communicate naturally, adding tension as the group reacts to threats together in real time.
