You run a roadside gas station from midnight to dawn. Some of the people who walk in are not people. This wiki covers the part most guides skip — the named threats, the achievement rarity data, and the questions that actually get typed into Google at 3am.
Three things nobody tells you before your first shift. One: the ID scanner is not a lie detector — it tells you a document is fake, not that the customer is hostile. Two: not every non-human is a threat; Norbert scans as a fake ID on Night 2 and is completely harmless. Three: one enemy in this game cannot be fought at all, and if you try, you die. See the Dentist.

What Shift At Midnight actually is
Shift At Midnight is a co-op survival horror game built by solo developer Bun Muen and published by Kwalee. It released on 22 July 2026, and the developer’s launch post says it is out on Steam, Xbox and Game Pass.
The loop is a shift. You clock in at a gas station, and customers arrive. Your job is to serve them, keep the shelves stocked and hit a quota. The complication is that some customers are doppelgangers — entities that copy a human's appearance, voice, mannerisms and backstory well enough to walk through the door and ask for cigarettes. You have an ID verification computer and your own judgement, and you have to decide who gets served and who gets dealt with.
Get it wrong in the generous direction and something comes through the door that shouldn't have. Get it wrong in the other direction and you have killed a paying customer, which the game is happy to let you do — the most common achievement in the entire game, held by 96.7% of players, is called First Blood and it unlocks for killing your first customer. That statistic is a design statement.

Every named threat
Most of what kills you has a name, and the names matter because the counterplay is completely different for each one. There is no universal answer — the tool that saves you from one of these gets you killed by another.
Doppelgangers are the actual game
The monsters get the attention, but the thing you spend most of a shift doing is deciding whether the person at the counter is human. Doppelgangers mimic look, voice, mannerisms and background. The ID verification computer is your primary tool, and it has a specific, narrow function: it tells you whether the document is authentic. It does not tell you whether the holder is human.
That gap is where the game lives. Norbert is the cleanest illustration — his ID scans as fake, he is openly not what he claims to be, and he will not hurt you. Meanwhile the Dentist does not register on the computer at all. A player who has learned "fake ID equals kill" will kill Norbert and get ambushed by something the scanner never flagged.
Steam labels this game as containing "plenty of gore and blood". It is a horror game about deciding whether to kill the person in front of you, and it does not soften that.

Guides
Who writes this
This is an independent fan wiki, not an official Kwalee or Bun Muen site. It is written and maintained by one person who plays the game and checks the numbers, not generated in bulk.
The rule that shapes every page here: facts come from the official Steam store listing and public Steam global achievement stats. Inference is labelled as inference. Where a requirement is genuinely unverified — notably the three hidden achievements — we say so instead of guessing, even though a confident guess would rank better.
Every page carries the date it was last checked against the live build. Found something wrong or out of date? Tell us — corrections get made and dated. More on the approach in about this wiki, and on who writes it on the editor page.
