What is confirmed
1v4. Official copy: one player is Michael Myers, four players are civilians. NPC residents fill the streets. A match is not 1v1 and not four players versus a bot killer.
Loop. Civilians warn neighbors, scavenge household items, contact police, then escape or help detain Myers. Myers stalks Special Targets for extra reward and tries to empty the town. He cannot be killed; detain is the stop.
Story. Steam and reviews describe a standalone single-player campaign played as Myers: about two hours, six chapters, from Smith’s Grove through the 1978 night. Reviews also treat it as the on-ramp for his multiplayer kit.
Offline bots are in official copy: solo versus bots, online 1v4, or story.
Friends and roles. Official copy confirms crossplay across PS5, Xbox, Steam, and Epic. Queue killer, civilian, or no preference. Killer Tokens and the Myers queue live on the play-as-Myers page. Private matches assign roles with friends.
Starting an escape is loud. Items shuffle. Those rules live on the escape page. How to stop Myers lives on the arrest page.
What is not confirmed
Exact XP for leaving a match early. Whether every platform pair is filling one pool on a given night. How many NPC residents spawn per map. Steam threads still report friend-join failures; treat those as live bugs, not a missing feature flag.
