Deceive Inc. deploys you into the world of high-stakes subterfuge, working for a private corporation with complete monopoly over the international espionage market.

Welcome to Deceive Inc., a private corporation with complete monopoly over the international espionage market. You can disguise yourself as anyone you meet in an instant, have access to state-of-the-art gadgets the rest of the world can only dream of and possess skills that would make Hollywood super spies jealous.

But your are not alone. Rival spies are after the same objective and every single one of them is as skilled, cunning and well-equipped as you are.

Blend in, grab the objective and break out. In the end, only one spy can complete the mission and get the paycheck. Company policy.

DeveloperSweet Bandits Studios and publisher Tripwire Presents, announced a closed alpha for Deceive Inc., which will run from Nov. 11 at 2 p.m. EST to Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. EST and will be available on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Players can sign up today for upcoming alpha playtests.

The new new developer diary introduces the team at Sweet Bandits Studios and how they helped shape Deceive Inc. into a vibrant multiplayer sneak ‘em up filled with unique characters and locales. Sweet Bandits Studios started out small, with just the two studio heads working out of a home office, but soon expanded as more core members joined the team. Each member is given ownership over what they work on at the studio and the lively atmosphere has fostered a genuine sense of fun that’s been distilled into their work. The studio’s driving principles have culminated into its first title, Deceive Inc., which brings together charismatic super spies and tense, exciting first-person stealth gameplay to make a truly unique multiplayer experience.

Create your loadouts from a plethora of highly versatile gadgets. With agent's favorites like the Inflatable mat, holo-mimic and bullet proof umbrella, our world-class R&D department got you covered. Literally.

Every Deceive Inc. agent is outfitted with a high-tech holographic watch allowing you to disguise yourself as guests, staff members or even security guards to gain access to restricted areas without arousing suspicion. Guaranteed to keep you hidden as long as you don’t shoot… or get shot.

Infiltrate sprawling locations filled with people to suspect, electronics to hack, restricted areas to trespass in and windows to jump from. How you get inside the vault and steal the objective is entirely up to you… and all the rival spies who will stop at nothing to beat you to it. No pressure.

Deceive Inc. is scheduled to launch in early 2023 on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
