What is Shift At Midnight?

Shift At Midnight is an online co-op detective horror game for up to 3 players, developed by Bun Muen and published by Kwalee. Players take on the role of a night-shift gas station clerk working through randomly generated shifts, investigating every customer who walks in to figure out who is human and who is a doppelganger pretending to be one.

Online Co-op

Run the night shift with 1-2 friends using proximity voice chat and shared counter duties.

Doppelganger Detective

Read IDs, cross-check the computer, and watch behaviour to catch the impostors.

13 Random Shifts

Each Story Mode night is randomly generated, so every shift feels fresh.

Endless Mode (Q4 2026)

A free major update adds new customers, weapons, traps and monsters.

Across 13 Story Mode shifts, players stock shelves, take deliveries, interrogate customers by examining IDs, cross-checking details on the computer, and watching behaviour, then choose whether to execute a suspected doppelganger or let them leave. Get it wrong and you will need to board up, set traps, and hide when the monsters come back. A free Endless Mode major update is planned for Q4 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Shift At Midnight co-op?+

Yes — the game supports up to 3 players online co-op. You can also play solo on every Story Mode shift and Endless Mode.

How do I spot a doppelganger?+

Cross-check the customer's photo, name, and details against the computer system. Watch for hesitation, refusals, and contradictions when you re-ask the same question. Body language and reactions to questions are key tells.

How long is Story Mode?+

Story Mode contains 13 randomly generated shifts. Difficulty rises from tutorial-level shifts 1-3 through the finale in shifts 11-13, which feature multiple doppelgangers, full monster hunts, and the closing story arc.

When does Endless Mode release?+

Endless Mode is a free major update planned for Q4 2026. It adds new customer types, weapons, traps, and monsters for endless nightly shifts.

How do I fix multiplayer bugs?+

Right-click the game in your Steam library > Properties > Betas > enter code 'networkissues' to opt into the multiplayer bug-fix beta branch.

How much does Shift At Midnight cost?+

Shift At Midnight is a one-time purchase with no microtransactions, no battle pass, and no subscription. You can also try the free Multiplayer Demo first on Steam.

What do I do in my first shift?+

Arrive at the gas station, stock shelves from deliveries, and greet customers at the counter. Ask to see their ID, cross-check the details on the computer, and decide whether to let them leave or execute a suspected doppelganger.

How hard is Shift At Midnight?+

Early shifts are slow and tutorial-friendly. By shifts 7-10 you will face multiple doppelgangers per night, and shifts 11-13 are full monster hunts with key decisions that determine the ending.

Ready to Run the Night Shift?

Stock the shelves, check the IDs, and decide who leaves the station alive. Your shift starts now.
