Capacity Update - North America Region

As we work with our provider to immensely scale up our North America region, we will redirect part of our traffic to Europe overnight.

You can always use the Region NPC in the hub to switch to a specific region.

We expect to have this fully resolved before the weekend.

It's time for a Murdery Mystery game update!

AFK Prevention

To prevent players farming XP by being AFK, you will now be removed from the game if you don't participate.

Innocent Detector

To help Murderers find hiding Innocents, the Innocent Detector will help them find remaining Innocents in the last minute of the game.

Enjoy!

Seasonal Games and Custom Servers

With the removal of Ghost Invasion today, we've received a number of questions about the availability of seasonal games in Custom Servers.

We aim to keep Custom Servers for Season Games available for about 2 weeks after the removal of the game from the hub. These games will receive no updates during this time, and as with any custom server, you can't gain XP in them.

Maintenance - November 2nd

We will be performing extensive backend maintenance today, November 2nd.

This only concerns boring, non-visible technical aspects of The Hive - no public facing changes or features will be introduced.

We currently do not have an estimated time of completion.
