This would be hard enough at the best of times, but unfortunately our literal “cleaners” will have to perform this task while the police are on the scene, leading to a unique combination of stealth and soap action. The new sequel will boast isometric 3D environments and offer not one, but four cleaners, each with their own individual skills and stories to tell. You’re gonna need a bigger bucket.

Serial Cleanersis currently in development for a 2021 release on PS4, PC, Xbox One and Switch.
