Crime Scene Cleaner - Beta of The Community Update

And there are over 1,000,000 Crime Scene Cleaners worldwide

Crime Scene Cleaner has officially sold over 1,000,000 copies on Steam – and that’s all thanks to YOU. Your support, feedback, and love for the game made this milestone possible. 

That’s why we think this is the perfect moment to announce something exciting - something that always warms the hearts of our community (especially on Discord!). Starting today (October 1, 2025), we’re launching the beta of brand-new game content. Just like with the previous "Nightmare Update," everyone who owns the game on Steam will have access, and the access instructions will be available on our Discord server. Keep in mind, though, that this is only a beta, so not everything may work perfectly!

This update - which we’ve internally dubbed "The Community Update" - is our way of giving back to you, the community of our game. It will feature two completely new maps that continue Kovalsky’s story. Why "The Community Update"? Because we haven’t forgotten about a certain contest we organized long before the game’s release. You submitted your mission ideas, and then voted on Discord for which one was the best. And, as promised, we’ve created that map - inspired by Valicity Stiles’ idea. Huge thanks! :)

The new content includes:

🧪 Lab – Winner of our Community Map Contest! Explore a hidden research facility on an island. This twisted map is inspired by Valicity Stiles’ original concept. Huge thanks to Valicity for their creativity and vision!

🏢 Gamedev Office (Interlude Map) – A brand new, original map serving as an interlude before the next act of Kovalsky’s story. This time, Kovalsky gets an unusual request from none other than “Communiti” themselves: they need his help cleaning up... What could possibly go wrong?

🧰 Explore Kovalsky’s New Workshop – Your hideout just got an upgrade! Discover Kovalsky’s Workshop – a brand new room where you can admire your loadout and check out your unlocked gear

🎵 New Music
This update also comes with new original tracks that set the perfect tone for Kovalsky’s next steps.

🎨 New Skins & Hidden Secrets – The beta also introduces four new skins to unlock:

  • 2 exclusive skins – unlocked through the True Cleaner mode
  • 2 secret skins – it’s up to you to figure out how to unlock them. (We won’t spoil it – it’s a secret!)
