In Identity V’s story-driven The Shrouded Bélóstáin Investigation event, players investigate characters, locations, maps, and documents to collect clues and solve a mystery.

The August Core Report analyzes how this event delivers a compelling story by designing deep characters and a wide variety of interactions. We also examine two concurrent tie-in events that Identity V uses to drive engagement and purchases during the Shrouded Bélóstáin Investigation.

Although it’s difficult to isolate the impact of any one of these three overlapping events, Identity V‘s revenue grew 63% 22Do22D during this period.
