Voices LieNow available in Early Access.

Meet six new characters and explore six optional roles in VOICES LIE.

New characters

Helen Pryce · Xu Zhou · Ines Duarte · Victor Serra · Mara Voss · Julian Shaw

New roles

Notary · Ticket Clerk · Night Guard · Auditor · Forger · Fixer

Add these optional roles in custom room settings. Existing preset lineups are unchanged.

Clearer skill results

Some skill results appear immediately, while others are revealed at dawn. A three-second pause gives players time to read each newly shown result. Private results remain visible only to their intended recipients.

• Fixed cases where a brief freeze could cause an unnecessary disconnection
• Added a recovery notice when the host is not responding. New match actions pause during recovery while the current match stays on screen
• Outdated voice audio is now discarded after a freeze to reduce delayed speech

• The top bar now groups the current phase, countdown, cycle progress and player status.
• The central paper shows the next speaker when one is scheduled and keeps up to three recent public results, labelled by Day or Night.
• Added visual marks for vote eliminations, peaceful Nights and Nights with eliminations.
• Microphone warnings now appear beside your avatar, with a shortcut to Voice settings.
• Fixed an issue where some ability results from later Days were labelled Day 1.

This update adds room management controls and makes it easier to return to an ongoing match after a synchronization failure.

• Custom-room hosts can now remove other players while waiting. Removed players can join again after 5 seconds.
• Added removal notices for the affected player and the remaining room members, plus a clear message when a rejoin is attempted too soon.
• Added Return to Match to the main menu after a synchronization failure ends your room connection. It lets you rejoin the original room and resume your seat while that match is still in progress.
• Improved Steam room connection startup.
• Long notices now wrap and expand to show their full text.
• Updated the hover and pressed states of the microphone, speaker and remove controls on room player cards.

This small patch fixes voice chat and makes Match voice status messages clearer.

• Fixed voice chat during Free Discussion and voice-state handling in silent phases.
• Eliminated players now see “Only living players can talk” during Free Discussion instead of the current-speaker-only message.
• Voice and microphone messages now fit the Match status bar in all 14 supported languages, in both open-mic and push-to-talk modes.
• Changed the self-mute button to a microphone icon.

The update is now available on Windows and macOS.

• Added Chen Dai, Maeve Finch and Ellis Ward.
• Added optional Field Medic and Press Photographer roles for custom Rooms.
• Redesigned Character Profiles with category filters, pagination and an expanded portrait-and-dossier view.
• Added clear rescue results and private investigation notes.
• Updated localized role instructions, Room rules and mute-button feedback.

An updated Windows and macOS build is now available for the VOICES LIE demo. This update focuses on matchmaking recovery, multiplayer synchronization, and fixes to chat, audio and the interface.

Quick Match and Rooms

• Fixed an issue where some players kept searching after nobody confirmed a Quick Match.
• Fixed Quick Match getting stuck during preparation after a loading failure, and improved failure feedback.
• Improved LAN room discovery, joining and recovery, including room-source labels and host controls.

Gameplay and Communication

• Reduced processing overhead when synchronizing votes in twelve-player matches.
• Fixed inconsistencies between the current-speaker indicator and voice and text speaking permissions.
• Improved recovery when rejoining Night private chat, keeping messages and state from previous sessions out of the new session.
• Improved host controls when timers are disabled, so absent players cannot stall speech turns, the Hunter's Final Retaliation or Chair Token handling.

Interface and Audio

• Improved button layouts for long translations while preserving readable labels and full click areas.
• Fixed private sound cues persisting into a new Night or after the viewed player changes.
• Adjusted Room sound timing and volume to reduce unnecessary interruptions.

Thank you for playing the demo and sharing your feedback.
