About the Game

TWO OF YOU DO NOT BELONG

Blend into the crowd, act natural, and hunt down the other player in Neon Knives, an award-winning same-screen couch multiplayer game where you’re both the hunter and the hunted.

BATTLEGROUNDS BUILT FOR STEALTH AND TRICKERY

Every level offers unique ways to outwit your rival. Sneak unseen between trees, turn tumbleweeds into a distraction, or vanish behind a massive snail just going about its day.

CHOOSE YOUR PLAY STYLE

Sneak through the crowd, bait your mark, attack anything that moves, or take a peek at your buddy’s controls. Each style has its own way to leave chaos and suspicion in your wake.

TWO PLAYERS, ONE CONTROLLER

Team up to take each other out, as you and your buddy share a single controller or keyboard. Also supports two separate controllers.
