Grab your mop, your best lies, and your darkest secrets. Crime Scene Cleaner is making a mess on PlayStation 5 this June. The grim-yet-darkly-funny cleaning sim from President Studio launches on PS5 on June 13 at 15:00 UTC, and it’s time for console players to get their hands dirty.
Already downloaded over two million times across platforms and rated ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ on Steam, Crime Scene Cleaner is ready to welcome a new audience into its twisted world of mob jobs, blood stains, and no-questions-asked cleanups.
In this gritty first-person cleaning sim, you’re not just wiping up after a murder, you’re fixing furniture, disposing of evidence, and making a crime scene look spotless. Why? Because the mafia said so, and your daughter’s life is on the line. You’ve got bills, a heart, and a very dirty job to do.
What’s in the bucket?
- Clean with purpose using mops, sponges, and even power washers
- Investigate each murder scene while scrubbing away the gore
- Move and destroy furniture to restore the scene to it’s original look
- Upgrade your toolkit with perks, better gear, and special lamps
- Use Cleaner’s Scence to highlight key items and stay efficient
- Pocket valuables (ethics are optional when the owner’s six feet under)
- Above all: no body, no crime
Each job tells a different story, often soaked in blood and moral grey zones. Whether you’re uncovering a killer’s motive or just stealing a fancy watch, there’s more to each mess than meets the eye.
What did we think of the PC release?
As noted in our previous review, Crime Scene Cleaner offers a surprisingly tasteful approach to its macabre subject matter. “It’s surprisingly tasteful, letting you piece together the events as you work through the level,” we observed, highlighting how the game allows players to reconstruct the story behind each crime scene through meticulous cleaning and observation.
The game’s visuals play a crucial role in creating a compelling atmosphere, transforming what could have been a straightforward cleanup task into a narrative-driven experience. “The game doesn’t just use blood as an objective to clean; it uses it as a storytelling device,” we noted, emphasizing how each splatter and stain becomes a clue, drawing players into the narrative without uttering a single world.
Crime Scene Cleaner launches June 13 on PS5. Be sure to wishlist it on the PlayStation Store and follow Present Studio on their website and X for more updates.
