Powerverse Studio Announces Psychological Horror ADV Midnight Class for PC
Midnight Class applies the anomaly-detection structure popularized by games like Exit 8 to a narrative-driven horror setting, where environmental changes double as story clues.
Reporting from 1 source: 4Gamer.net.
Powerverse Studio announced Midnight Class, a first-person psychological horror adventure set in a Chinese school. Players explore from 19:20 until 6:00, with lights going out at midnight and the school gradually transforming. Anomalies serve as clues to a story about a forgotten girl. Release is set for Q3 2026.
The announcement trailer, titled "Don't Look at me," is now public. The game draws on the Chinese practice of evening self-study, common in boarding middle and high schools, and has players navigate a school building from the start of evening study at 19:20 until 6:00 the next morning.
At midnight, all lights go out, but the night continues. Over time, the school itself shifts into another place: familiar classrooms and corridors lose objects, rearrange themselves, and gain things that should not exist. Players observe these changes to decide which way to go. Choosing correctly advances the game, while a wrong choice sends the player back to the starting point.
The anomalies are not random scares. They are clues that piece together a fragmented story about a girl and forgotten memories. Midnight Class is planned for release in the third quarter of 2026, with no Japanese language support at this time.
