What is new to Murder v2?

We've been listening to lots of suggestions and compiled a list of all the new things we'll be adding to v2.
There's no doubt that there will be many more suggestions and we look forward to seeing them!

Brand new Murder, called Murder v2 (Version 2)
- Murder has been completely re-coded to provide major stability, reliability, performance and gameplay improvements

Improvements to Guns and Hitboxes

New Cosmetics

What do we have planned for the future of Murder?
We've been working on Murder v2 for a long while and we know people have been waiting a long time for it.
After this release, we plan to have updates come out much faster and have bugs fixed much quicker with our improved system.

As part of the update, we've also made some changes to the bug report section to further increase our efficiency in making fixes.
If you spot any bugs, please don't hesitate to make one. You can find the Bug Reports section by clicking here.

Thank you for all your patience getting us to this point, your constant support of the network means a lot to us <3

Honestly looking forward to see how this comes out tomorrow, hopefully it feels just as competitive as the original game but also new and fresh. Really good since I've wanted to get back into Murder for so long but let's face it, Hypixel's copy is pretty damn bad. Let's hope for new players in these future endeavors.
