The second crewmate role is called the Noisemaker. This crewmate makes noise when the imposter kills them and alerts his team about the body’s location. The Noisemaker has four speakers at his back that produce noise and alert his team. A red signal on the screen’s bottom left corner alerts other crewmates and shows the noise.
The new impostor role is called Phantom. It allows the imposter to become invisible for a short period of time and appear like a ghost on the screen. The character can escape easily after eliminating a crewmate without being noticed.
