Offering players the chance to take on the role of a killer android disguised as the passenger of a space cruiser, sci-fi social deduction game First Class Trouble made its way to PC in early access back in April. The game quickly amassed strong reviews on Steam and it seems it's now eyeing up a couple of new platforms, with developer Invisible Walls and publisher Versus Evil confirming the game will be heading to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
The reveal came via a chaotic trailer and a post on the PlayStation Blog, with the latter confirming some new features will make their way to the game alongside its as of yet unannounced release date. Versus Evil Community Team Lead David Hulegaard discussed these fresh additions in the post, noting that players will be able to enjoy First Class Trouble with in-game proximity chat and haptic feedback on PS5.
Hulegaard even goes into detail regarding both features, noting that players will be able to feel resistance while squeezing the triggers of guns and hear the smash of bottles through their controller thanks to the haptic feedback. Meanwhile, proximity chat will allegedly make for a much more immersive experience, with the community team lead noting that it will "help you strategize and conspire with other players." It sounds like a fun port of the game that's sure to bring aboard some new players.
For those who've never tried First Class Trouble before, the premise is simple. Six players arrive on a luxury space cruiser with the objective of shutting down an evil AI located at the core of the ship. Four of these players will be normal residents, completing objectives and trying their best to put a stop to the evil robotic menace lurking aboard the vessel. The other two are AI impersonators known as Personoids, who must deceive their fellow players and slowly pick them off to save the AI.
They'll have plenty of zany opportunities to complete their mission, whether that's ejecting players from airlocks, pushing them into giant venus fly traps, drowning them in swimming pools, or locking them in freezers. The trailer does a great job of summarizing the chaotic, physics-based fun of the game, which allows imposters to murder their targets in outlandish fashion and interact with tons of in-game objects. With social deduction video games amassing a huge audience recently through the success of titles like Among Us, First Class Trouble is definitely one to watch for fans of the popular asymmetric multiplayer genre.
First Class Trouble is out now on PC. PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions are currently in the works.
