Murder Mystery 2 Wiki

Updated 33 minutes ago

Every round, one player gets the knife, one gets the gun, and everyone else hopes it isn't them. The Murderer slashes or throws their knife to take out all twelve players before time runs out. The Sheriff has the only gun in the room and needs to shoot the Murderer without accidentally hitting an Innocent, because a missed call drops their gun for anyone to grab. Innocents dodge, collect coins scattered around the map, and watch for the tell-tale clink of a blade being drawn nearby.

Between rounds, those coins go toward Boxes in the Shop, each one opens to a random knife or gun somewhere on the rarity ladder from Common to Chroma. Duplicates feed the Salvage system, turning into Shards and Metals you can craft into higher-tier weapons. There's also a full player trading economy, three game modes (Standard, Disguises, and Assassin), and a Prestige reset waiting at the end of the XP track.

Powers:

Powers are special abilities available only to the Murderer in Murder Mystery 2. You buy them from the in-game Shop using Coins or Diamonds, equip one before a round starts, and it stays active for the whole match. Some powers are passive, like Haste, which permanently boosts your speed while your knife is drawn, while others are active abilities with a cooldown, like X-Ray, which lets you see every player through walls for a few seconds. Choosing the right power for your playstyle is one of the main ways to sharpen your Murderer game.

All 10 Powers in Murder Mystery 2

Guns:

Guns are the Sheriff's weapon in Murder Mystery 2, with one shot to take down the Murderer, and if the Sheriff falls, any Innocent can grab the dropped gun and become the Hero. Outside of gameplay, guns are a major part of MM2's trading economy, sorted into rarity tiers from Common box drops up to rare Chroma pieces with animated color effects. Most guns from past seasonal events are now trading-only, and their values are tracked by the community as a guide for fair deals.

Pets:

Pets are cosmetic companions that trail behind your character during rounds in Murder Mystery 2. They look great but have no effect on gameplay. The Season 1 Pet Egg, bought from the Shop for 1,000 Coins or 100 Diamonds, is the only active way to get new pets, and it can hatch anything from a Common base animal up to an extremely rare Chroma Fire variant. Pets from old events, the removed Classic Pet Box, and expired item packs can only be picked up through trading. Rarity ranges from Common to Chroma, and a handful of pets are permanently untradable due to in-game naming glitches.

All 83 Pets in Murder Mystery 2

Knives:

Knives are the Murderer's weapon in Murder Mystery 2, used each round to eliminate other players before the Sheriff can stop you. Outside of gameplay, knives are the core of MM2's trading economy, sorted into nine rarity tiers from Common box drops up to rare Chroma pieces with animated color effects and Ancient knives from retired holiday events. Most knives from past events are now only available through player trading, and the community tracks their values as a guide for fair deals.

Murder Mystery 2 Gameplay Tips

  • Silence the clink before you need to. As the Murderer, your knife makes an audible sound nearby players can hear without seeing you. The Ninja Power cuts that cue entirely, worth buying early if you play Murderer often.
  • Holster the Sheriff's gun. The moment you draw your weapon as Sheriff, you become the Murderer's next target. Blend in, collect coins with everyone else, and only act when you've watched the same player behave suspiciously twice.
  • Collect coins every round, win or lose. Coins spawn on the map each round and you get a daily login bonus too. Steady play gets you to the 1,000 coins a Box costs far faster than hunting for wins.
  • Run the crafting math before you trade. Common through Legendary duplicates often break down into more useful Shards and Metals than they'd fetch in a trade. Check what a Godly crafts for before you give items away.
