In the realm of atmospheric, dark-gothic storylines and nail-biting suspense, Identity V offers a unique asymmetrical survival horror experience crafted by NetEase. Available on PC, iOS, and Android, the game follows the narrative of detective Orpheus as he investigates the disappearance of a girl within a mysterious manor. This game sets itself apart with various game modes and an ever-expanding roster of characters, each with distinct abilities and roles.
Identity V presents numerous characters to its players, although only a handful are accessible initially. Players can unlock new characters by acquiring ‘Clues’, which are obtainable through gameplay and quest completion. Each day, the game offers one or two characters for free trial use. Additionally, every season introduces two to three new characters to the roster, available either through their S-Tier limited costume from seasonal essence or purchase from the illusion hall. Players can choose between two roles: Hunters and Survivors, each endowed with unique skills and play styles, providing a complex layer to the game's strategic depth.

- Minor Arcana (Tarot): An eight-player mode where participants form two teams, each consisting of three Survivors and one Hunter. Teams must protect their King from the enemy's Knight while devising escape strategies.
- Ranked: Players strive to ascend Tier Divisions based on performance. Winning matches earns Character points for the chosen characters.
Game patches occasionally alter the 'meta', with changes that can buff or nerf specific characters. Each character's unique playstyle ensures a varied experience, making it imperative for players to find one that resonates with their own style of play
