Killer Inn Free Trial Launches Alongside NieR:Automata Collaboration

Square Enix has launched a free trial for Killer Inn, giving players a chance to try the asymmetrical team action shooter at no cost. The trial has no playtime limit, though free players will face some restrictions around match eligibility and playable characters.

Players who buy the full game after trying the free trial will have their progress carry over. The paid version is also 75% off until June 4, 2026.

NieR:Automata Collaboration Begins

The free trial arrives alongside a limited-time NieR:Automata collaboration. The crossover adds new themed skins, banners, emotes, titles, and a limited-time Battle Pass.

Collaboration items include Cosplayer 2B and Martial Artist 9S skins, eight NieR:Automata banners, eight pixel-art emotes, and eight themed titles.

Patch 0.9.3 Adds Gameplay Updates

Square Enix also released Patch 0.9.3, which updates custom matches, character balance, weapon balance, matchmaking for beginner players, and bug fixes.

Showdown mode now begins when six players remain, rather than three, with the threshold adjusting for smaller matches. Defenses against instant kills have also been simplified and adjusted.

Killer Inn is available now.
